I caught feelings
Lewis Capaldi image borrowed from the BBC because none of mine came out OK Because we always give credit where credit is due, you can see the image in it’s full glory here I went to see Lewis Capaldi in Boston the week after the hockey game with Bestie. (I’ve…
I swear to god, I’ll survive if it kills me to
aussie puppies are aussholes A while back, I wrote about being in this weird head space: I’ve been in a weird place lately. Not quite depressed, not quite manic, but definitely not normal. I’d say I’m cycling but it doesn’t feel like that, either. I’m stuck in this weird off-center…
Five minute or it’s not worth it.
Platonic? I mean, yes. I think so. Probably. My shrinky dink is convinced that boys and girls can’t be friends without someone wanting to get in the other’s pants. To be honest, a lot of women feel that way, and I cannot wrap my brain around it. My bestie turned…
You two fill my holes… no. wait.
these boys own me So, let’s talk Heated Rivalry because I cannot get it out of my head. I have been so good about not watching the show on repeat because whenever I have watched it, it gets my full attention. Kind of hard to put it on in the…
I’m coming to the cottage
This fucking scene broke me in all the right ways… Jesus fucking Christ. Do you people even know me? I love hockey. I love MM relationships. I love porn. So, OF COURSE, I will absolutely lose my mind for MM hockey porn. I had no idea that was a secret.…
Stop the ride! I want to get off!
I have no idea how this was downloaded and placed on my desktop, I swear! #dopey2027 Holy shit, has it been a crazy few months. The day job was sold on the 30th of September, but the high level conversations started back in July. In my role as Controller, I…
The Amazing Adventures of BeFri and StEnds
for the longest time there were two of us and we were inseparable Ya’ll know I hold on to shit. So, let’s visit some ancient history, shall we? Back in preschool, I met this girl. We stayed friends all the way through until a stupid argument in our freshman year…
The war on… Choose Your Own Adventure
At this rate, I’ve cared about more people that I can count… I’ve struggled with the idea that I’m running out of time on this Earth. I’ve outlived my mother by four years, and in six, I will have outlived my father. So, hearing the news that Chicken Taco (is…
I got a line on the new America
You know what? The punchlines write themselves. It’s very clear you’re being unfair, King. No matter what you say, we won’t obey. Gonna hold a revolution now, King. And we’re gonna run it all our way. I wish I went to No Kings Day, but there were a couple of…
Not So Berry Challenge, Gen 1
Am I the only one that gets that reference? Fun facts about buying a house in a dying small town an hour from civilization: 1) Furniture only gets delivered there every two weeks. I either move heaven and earth to get there Friday or wait until July because all the…
strong desire to be treated as the other gender…
Why no. No, I don’t look butch when I leave the house. Not at all. Here’s the thing: I have gotten a metric fuck ton of shit on Facebook recently because I’m LOUD about trans rights. In comments on news stories. In my Facebook DMs. I even had a friend…
I know I have roots there even if I don’t know where the trees are.
Hail! to the victors valiant / Hail! to the conqu’ring heroes / Hail! Hail! to Michigan / I forgot the words / GO BLUE! A while back, I had this crazy plan to fly in and out of Boston - go see my friends’ band in Albany-adjacent cities and then…
I’ve never been so ashamed
becoming a Ukrainian citizen means renouncing my us citizenship… not sure that’s a bad thing. I don’t even know where to start. I’ve been profoundly depressed since the coup began and things are getting worse. trump seems to think he can delete a whole bunch of people by forcing a…
Did my dad quote CONFUCIUS?!? Dude…
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it? During my reread of Walden, I came across this: All change is a miracle to contemplate but it is a miracle which is taking place every instant. Confucius said, “To know that we know what we know, and that we do…
I find it wholesome to be alone in the greater part of the time. - Thoreau
I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude. - also Thoreau Hmmm… I haven’t read Walden and Civil Disobedience in forever. The fact that he’s top of mind today might mean it’s time for a reread. I mean, I still have my copy from high school. I’m…
Reflections on retirement and the ADA
I’m in that picture and I don’t like it. My way cool, super sexy Logitech keyboard has a loose key and it is driving me nuts. Like seriously. It’s the comma key. Used for… commas and playing the Sims. Do you know how much I write?!? To have a comma…
Adventures in cooking
Well… Millinocket is closer to really good college hockey, but Presque Isle is more fun to say That’s probably not the best way to make a decision on where I’m moving to, but fuck it. I’m watching UMaine vs Boston University right now on ESPN+. I’d rather be at Alfond…
*poke* *poke*
wands up… OK. That only took three tries and a panicked email to an EE developer I know… but I finally managed to upgrade the backend of my little blog. Finally. So… Detroit. That was a trip and a half. So glad I went! For as much fun as I…
Not again…
I aspire to this level of greatness Can I tell you something? I don’t have to buy two of everything any more!!!! Want to see Matt Nathanson? Want to fly home and go to a Bruins game? Want to sit FIRST FUCKING CLASS? When you are budgeting-obsessed and you realise…
It’s been a minute
Either potatoes or wicked cold… I still haven’t updated the back end of this little blog (build date 20130506) so uploading photos and writing entries has been much more difficult than I have patience for. While I’ve been disappeared, I’ve been busy. Just not doing very exciting things. I moved…
I haven’t felt anything in two years
*snicker* I’ve been living in an absolute shit show lately and well, it went from bad to worse on May 3rd. Quick recap: South Dakota sued Wayfair in 2018 and won, which means that ANY company delivering goods to their state has to pay sales tax. Just like when Roe…
I owe Eminem an apology
I’m a candle; I’ll go out if you blow me So, yeah. Eminem. I didn’t give him enough credit when The Slim Shady EP dropped, but fuck, he gets it all and more now. I can’t even begin to tell you how much I enjoy the way he plays with…
DFL -> DNF
if people are scouring my search history, they should be very concerned Two weekends, two races, two very different results. Last weekend was a 10K and I was Dead Fucking Last. So far in the back that they left the timing mat down and one girl stood there with one…
I had a feeling I could be someone
Dude. I cannot stop listening to this. Chills and tears. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Also, I hit 60 miles for the month today. Definitely going to make it to 200 at this rate. But I hate running, so I’m not excited by that at all. Nope.
Oh, Christ.
I am in this picture and I don’t like it. So. Dopey to Dumbo is done. Next up is a 5K in Boca tomorrow, then the Live Like Bella 5K at the same place the Miami Turkey Trot is held, and then the A1A Half Marathon in Fort Lauderdale, and…
One. And. Done.
I am officially Dopey. I’ve managed to put on a bit of weight and forgotten how to breathe. Either one would spell trouble for my running ‘career’, but both is… Well, let’s put it this way: if I want to finish a Disney race, I will have to run it…
I will die on this hill
family don’t end with blood and that’s a hill I will die on Too many thoughts running around my head… but let’s face it, there are a lot of people living here rent free this year. As I grow and let go, things resurface. Things reopen wounds that still haven’t…
When it’s smoking it’s cooking. When it’s burnt it’s done.
#selfcaresaturday looks a lot like death by food poisoning I may have inherited a lot from my mother’s side of the family… except a woman’s innate ability to cook. Nope. My failures in the kitchen are all my father’s DNA. Let’s put it this way, my favourite breakfast growing up…
Wherever I am, I will not forget home
Я так хотів пожити по-новому Quick entry… because guys! (Gals! Non-Binary Pals!) I. AM. WATCHING. MY. SECOND. HOCKEY. GAME. OF. THE. NIGHT. OF!! THE!! NIGHT!! I watched the BU / Maine game - and got to listen to the BU announcers. (*sniff*) BU won, barely. I might have jinxed them……
‘I say fuck a lot’ might be the understatement of the year.
I just like the word fuck. I stumbled upon this completely fucking adorable book on Thursday and DEVOURED it on Friday, since I didn’t have anything (not a single fucking thing and not an exaggeration) to do at work. Upside Down by N.R. Walker completely captured the asexual relationship I…
If the words won’t come, make the characters.
the secret to a successful nanowrimo is porn. lots of it. As I’ve said before, I’ve never been the type of person who creates an outline and a plot. I’ve been plotting like a madwoman. Pages and pages of plot bunnies. It’s insane. Who knew writing a hockey au would…
I wouldn’t say she’s a slut, but her favourite shade of lipstick is penis. - Kristen Proby
I could have written this scene, but I didn’t. Elle Kennedy beat me to it. I’m still on my mission to read EVERY. SINGLE. hockey romance out there. FUUUUUUUUCK. There are a lot of them. I’ve been trying to focus on the MM ones, but every once in a while,…
Гей! Нумо, козаки по конях (Нумо, козаки, гей!)
Good Advices dot com in a nutshell… I hope I’m doing a racery event for the next ten days for my virtual running club. I know. This is not a surprise. For as much as I hate running I do it a lot… more than I would prefer to, that’s…
You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you.
I certainly don’t write for the money. In case you were wondering, the 2012-2022 NHL CBA is 540 pages of the driest legalese to ever exist. I don’t even know how I got a copy of it, other than the fact that I worked in the NHL. There’s no real…
Big man sticks and tight tunnels
You can force the girl out of hockey, but you can’t take the hockey from the girl Oh. My. God. What have I just done?!? So a little while ago, I had posted that I was going to write a piece of original fiction (het, no less!) in response to…
I guess I’m doing something right
I hit ‘maybe running isn’t for me’ at the same time normal runners are hitting ‘I’m ready for this’ Still working through reading some of the short stories and discarded longer works I’m unearthing as part of the LONGEST CLEANING / REORGANIZING PROJECT IN THE HISTORY OF THE FUCKING WORLD.…
Can I, can I put it in your slot?
“Mmm,” she said, licking her lips. “Is that package for me?” I don’t know how I survived this past week at work - or today, for that matter - but when that popped up in my FB memories… it made everything so much better. It might have inspired some dirty…
I do it by hand
The code in the back is beautiful. This? Not so much. So… I am certifiable. If my needing a shrinky dink and being heavily medicated wasn’t enough, I’ve decided to code my new web project BY HAND . All I can say is THANK FUCK I have a local webserver…

A Man and His Moose
A very unusual story and very amusing - I had to read it twice! A Man and His Moose A True Story by Wendell Gee, Fourth Grader Softly and silently, he crept into the car and drove to Westown Pharmacy. Little did he know I was in the car watching…
Bye, Pig
I made this meme better Two weeks ago we had to put Guinness to sleep. The prednisone didn’t help at all. In fact, it looked like it made things worse. The last straw, as it were, the sign we’d been begging him for, was the morning of the vet appointment.…
I’m not Dopey
I totally heard it in the dude’s voice Marathon Weekend registration was this past Tuesday and apparently sold out in record time. I was sitting in the neurologist’s office with my husband asking about options… but I’d already decided against trying Dopey again. Right now, I don’t have the interest…
Lion Country! Lion Country!
pro tip: wash the car windows before going to a drive-thru safari So. I don’t know how to say it, so I’m just going to drop it here: Guinness has been diagnosed with Degenerative Myelopathy. When he was diagnosed with arthritis in his hips, it was expected. He’s a 12…
We’ll dance where the ice gets thin
The Zest Legacy, 2nd Generation: Bryce and Nathan Richardson I don’t make it a secret amongst friends that I retreat into video games when the world becomes too much. I’m probably a year into hardcore playing the Sims again. I cycle in and out of the Sims because the game…

Topping from the bottom
I. Can’t. Believe. This. Happened. I’m always that person who takes charge of a group project when people are slacking… this time, I bulldozed a Captain. In my defence, not a single person on the team was offering anything up, and I have charities that mean a shit-ton to me.…
SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT
OH MY GOD. THIS BOOK IS EVERYTHING I WANTED IT TO BE AND MORE. Image shamelessly “borrowed” from Bunnywest’s tumblr. OK. So. If you remember, the entry where I talked about dicks. (Lots of dicks. ALL THE DICKS.) you’ll remember that I completely orgasmed over a Bunnywest fanfic. (And I…
Про Грінча який украв Різдво
I meant to post this entry yesterday. Whoops. Oh, for fuck’s sake. There’s a key on the MacBook’s keyboard that lets me switch between the keyboards for different languages… I’ve got a switching shortcut programmed for my bluetooth keyboard, but I always manage to go from italics to Ukrainian when…
під лежачий камінь вода не тече
I’m sure johnlock exists because Conan Doyle used ejaculate so much… I haven’t run or walked since my disastrous finish at the Turkey Trot. I deferred my entry for a 5K / Half Marathon combo this weekend. I have the Dopey Challenge in less than a month and I haven’t…
Бо я тащусь від тебе давно
What? You asked. The year my mother died, I was taking a drama class. I was friends with all the theatre geeks and I liked the drama club teacher, so why the fuck not? (Long time readers will recognise the fuck it factor at work…) The homework assignment was to…
I had a fucked up week that lasted years.
Shrinky Dinks, invented in 1973, are a children’s toy and activity kit consisting of large flexible sheets which, when heated in an oven, shrink to small hard plates without altering their colour or shape. (see also: drug dealer) It’s a Matt Nathanson sort of day around these parts. I hit…
Proud member of the wherethefuckarewe tribe
oh, bestie, have I got a story for you… Let’s start with the title of the entry. Get the boring shit out of the way. My dad, in all of his politically (in)correctness, used to tell me we were part Indian. But not any of the tribes you would find…
He’s got the biggest balls of them all
proof that the ability to provide perfect *mic drop* moments is in my DNA Was supposed to study Ukrainian today. Decided that fucking around on YouTube was a better way to spend my time. But I watched the 2022 Ukrainian Independence Day concert, so that counts, right? I might have…
Happy 40th, Epcot!
I really need to rethink my priorities. I got tired of answering message after message during Irma (which was our first hurricane as Florida residents), so I started posting #bluedotupdates on my Facebook page. Normally with a screenshot of the current conditions. Of course, hurricanes are hard to predict. They…
Мамо, це не сон!
as seen at St. Mike’s A photo of Lviv popped up in my Facebook memories today and I abruptly started to cry. Fuck me. This war needs to end. - - - - - - - - - - Since someone asked, and it wasn’t really a Facebook post, here…
Привіт! Мене звати Wendell. Як вас звати?
insert witty comment here Today’s 5K was a horrendous waste of time. I was told that the course - up and down the Hollywood Beach boardwalk - was beautiful and shady and quick. I’ll agree that it was beautiful before the sun came up and there was a nice breeze.…
двадцять neuf
During my Ukrainian lessons: think in Ukrainian, speak in French. My running coach is on vacation, so I decided to load up on local 5Ks to make sure I get some outdoor miles. I’m very disappointed and mostly confused about today’s 5K. I ran intervals a bit - started out…
Життя починаеться знов
see you later, alligator This weekend is the hubby’s birthday and then on the 24th is the most important day of my life: Ukraine’s Independence Day. (And it might be our wedding anniversary, too, but priorities…) (I’m trying not think too hard about what Putin may do to ‘celebrate’, but…
Війнами втомлена та ніким не зломлена
My handwriting has improved! I’m constantly fascinated by the amount of assholery I see in the world. Although I don’t know why… I mean, I’m the biggest asshole I know. I mentioned - in passing - that I had a Ukrainian lesson this morning. (The first one in five (FIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)…
IT’S NEW SHOE DAY!
hold on to your sombreros, amigos… here we go again I’m STILL cleaning out that damn bedroom because it is so hard to go through all that stuff. And yes, I know that green folder holds love letters from MJR, blue from JH, and red from ML but I’m still…
So. Can I order my handmaid’s uniform on Amazon?
thought about making this my FB profile pic, but nobody would get it except you, dear reader The last time I couldn’t look away from the computer at work, the last time I cried at my desk, was January 6th. I had hoped those days were behind me… but nope.…

1985. It took 7 years before she stopped drinking for good. *ahem* Back in December, I talked about the Boxes of Doom! Well. I’ve spent way too much quality weekend time going through those in that blog post and some others. We’re painting the room we call the Person Cave…
#UntilTheVeryEnd… also, #FUCKWARNERBROTHERS
I watch too many horror movies and my husband is The Chicken is Boba Fett. There. That’s a thing you know now about my private life. I’m done. Just when I thought I couldn’t be any less motivated to run… RTI just settled their lawsuit with Warner Brothers, which loosely…
Я знаю, все буду добре
welcome home, subie #4 When we moved to South Florida, I traded in my Forester because it didn’t perform well on the Florida roads. If the AC was on, the car struggled to go over 60. Average speed on the Sawgrass, the road I travel the most? 80+. I traded…
чекай мене, коли все це мине
I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about this collab, but it is LOVE. The video kills me… it was filmed in Ukraine, sooooo there’s that. The Ukrainian lyrics reference the way families are being torn apart. Like in Taras’ case, the lyrics speak to the way his wife and children…
УКРАЇНА ПЕРЕМОЖЕ
So.. this has been bouncing around my head for the last few days. It’s really catchy as fuck, and uplifting, and the lyrics make me giggle. Lyrics Translate let me down hardcore, so I’m including the YouTube translation for you. Leave it to the Ukies to have so much fun…
THE. DWARF. WILL. DIE.
#dopey2021, try3 I have to vent about this… Marathon Weekend’s registration opened today at 10. It’s well known that the “best” way to get a bib is to have multiple browsers open, over multiple types of devices. You can also get into the queue PRIOR to 10AM. This is all…

I like to be called ‘cupcake’.

Whine and (Nickel and) Dime
lack of motivation is a real bitch Soooooo… much like my on-and-off again attempts to learn the Ukrainian language, I’m suffering through the same fits and starts with running. Consistency is not my thing apparently. I decided to register for Wine and Dine because I want to redeem myself and…
Країна – більше за будь-яке зло
Kyiv Independent - 27.03.2022 Скільки печалей і скільки морок, і ти вже не можеш ступити крок, і вже зупиняєш серце, рахуючи втрати. І так нам бракує добрих вістей в країні, в якій так багато дітей знають як варто жити й за що помирати. Країна, яка не тримає зла. Країна, яка…
Steady repetition is a compulsion mutually reenforced
I’ll take a bag of rice, please. OH. MY. GOD. WHY. IS. THIS. SO. HARD. Draft four has been an amazing, almost religious experience… if you choose to worship at the altar of pain, tears, hair pulling, and very, very creative swearing. That fucker needs some holy water AND a…
Моя маленька незалежність...
Just a reminder… Harry Potter and his friends won that war. Avada Kedavra! As I’m doing my quick run through of Facebook, I stumbled upon a video of Святослав Вакарчук (lead singer of Океан Ельзи (Okean Elzy) - probably Ukraine’s biggest rock band.) just jamming out on a piano in…
Не сьогодні. Не завтра. Ніколи.
Boston. 2016. Pro-Ukraine rally. I still can’t believe what’s going on in Ukraine. It hurts to even try and wrap my head around it… But, I suppose, if one could possibly find some good in all of this bullshit, it would be me. I haven’t kept up with my Ukrainian…
Filling holes
I think I’ve learned all possible variations of the word fuck… I’ve been relatively quiet about the effect the war is having on me, personally. A couple comments here and there, a lot of reposts of things that make me proud to be a Ukrainian, but not the soul-searching self…
Слава Україні! Героям слава!
Are toddlers even capable of understanding safe, sane, and consensual? From one of my 18+ Sims groups. While I have a number of mods, one that is 50 shades of… 18+... is definitely not one of them. I definitely have nothing against the lifestyle, but it’s nothing I want to…
I no make words go good. English hard.
I’m running out of icons and pretty colours on my little sidebar. I’ve decided to scrap the third draft and start over again… Welcome to draft 4, which is already filled with random notes like this one. TBH, I don’t know which one of us was completely shitty when that…
I. Am. An. Idiot.
omg Remember when I said that I didn’t think 2022 was going to be full of, um, triggering activities? Well. Surprise! I’m a fucking idiot. So. I turn 47 this year. If you want to work in specifics, I will now be two years older than my mother was when…
When you lose something you cannot replace
reminiscin’ this ‘n’ that ‘n’ havin’ such a good time… oo-de-lally, oo-de-lally, golly, what a day I’m in a few Disney running groups, but my favourite is, hands down, #runDopey. The people are so great in there. It’s truly one of the safest Facebook groups there is, everyone is friendly,…
Every mile is magic
I love this so much I need to vent about this… My old AR person, at the other company, kept 6 spreadsheets that all had the same information. AND NONE OF IT MATCHED. She had collection notes spread across them and none of them were the same. If you opened…
She’s Running the Distance
that is what a half marathon pr looks like Let’s get the ugly bit out of the way: I did not complete the marathon and therefore, did not complete the Dopey Challenge. Instead of coming home with six medals, I received four. The marathon’s medal was given to me after…
The One Where I Talk About Dicks
This. Is. Perfection. OK. So. First things first. That picture is the most perfect photo of Bunnywest’s Stiles. (Scrolling through 300+ photos on IMDB to find the perfect photo for a blog post? Yup. I suffer for my art. For YOU.) Bunnywest is my favourite TeenWolf fan fiction author and…
Alphabet Soup

I’m full of contradictions and hypocrisies
I may run at the speed of turtles swimming through peanut butter. But I run. My Christmas present to myself was the top medal hanger… I haven’t done the #threewords in a long time, but I’ve been using Twelve’s words / the unofficial motto of the Whovian Running Club to…
I don’t need any new voices
current mood *clears throat* NO BETA!!!!! WE DIE LIKE MEN!!!!! Yeah. I have so much to say and absolutely no words. Quick recap: 13 days until Dopey. New job starts on the Tuesday after Marathon Weekend. It was an ethical thing and not a bipolar thing, but I’m not going…
I never thought that I could be who I am
this. fucking. show. Spending Christmas with Matt Nathanson again (a week early). His raunchy Christmas carols are everything. Having access to the Christmas livestreams until the 19th is not going to be long enough. (Seriously, his live shows are awesome… He is absolutely hilarious.) Probably not a surprise, but I…

Unicorns, racery, clicky knees, and balloon ladies
I. FUCKING. DID. THE. THING. Let’s talk about last weekend, shall we? The 5K was rainy and cold. The 10K was rainy and cold. The half marathon was dry, but freezing . Hey, you line up in a corral in a running skirt and two t-shirts and you tell me…
NO TOUCHY
reminds me of the 75 different versions of the SG budget… І ми продовжуєм нести свій прапор, а не хрест. Ми продовжуєм іти на власний Еверест. And we continue to carry our banner, but not our cross. We continue to walk on our own Everest. - - - - -…
Oh no!!!!! BUBBLEGUM!!!
Chucks and a red dress? Yup. Sounds about right. When I fell into The Deep Dark Place, in that lovely Before Time, you know, the one where I got fired for being sick? Yeah… Anyhoo. Plenty of warning signs. Warning signs that have come back. History. Repeating itself. Something something…
I think about this world a lot and I cry
UConn’s last pure white husky has crossed the rainbow bridge… I’m a fucking mess right now. I can’t even deny it… tear tracks are running down my face and I haven’t been able to stop the tears for days. (Other than when I need to pull my shit together for…

An apology isn’t worth shit
an apology isn’t worth shit if you don’t know what the fuck you’re apologising for, you asshole I took my ugly mood the other day and obliterated a relationship it took me three drafts and over 100K words to build. And I have no fucking idea how to put them…
The universe hates me.
How have you hurt me? Let me count the ways… So… that was randomly fitting. Not amused that it showed up today, though. Yesterday, I was talking to a coworker about a coworker that left. Former coworker once told me that I wasn’t as tough as I thought I was.…
Don’t Panic! / Not Again!
And so, Don’t Panic - the most recent BotF winner - heads into the finals I should have posted this AGES ago, but the last Battle of the Fandoms team I was on was Hitchhiker’s themed. It’s a bit of an odd book, one I don’t read often enough, but…

I’ll take “Things Missing from UCMB Road Trips”, Alex… *snicker* Somehow, I knew that damn hashtag would come back to haunt me. After winning NaNoWriMo a few years ago, I decided to try Scrivener. Hey, anything recommended by John Finnemore has to be worth checking out. (Speaking of checking out,…
It’s because of these drugs I do
