Was feeling really tired and sore after an active day of moving plants around ahead of winter. Realized roughly 10 minutes ago after utilizing my mouth a lot this evening that…the only water I consumed was with my Vyvanse this morning. 🤦 I’m usually a double water bottle kind of person.

Yet another Minneapolis stolen bike Framed Alaskan alloy fat tire bike Hit me up if you see it. Throw a lock on if you can. I am tired.

So last night 17yo asks for a McDonalds ice cream, and we’re having a Conversation so of course we go. The car in front of us orders 3 filet-o-fish & 2 filet-o-fish meals. Talks to the person at the window without paying for a long time. Window hands them something, and then the car just drives off.

At a show at First Ave last weekend, Daði Freyr casually said he was glad to be in Minnesota and someone yelled, “Fuck ICE!” Then more shouts of “Fuck ICE!” rang out. Happens everywhere people gather around here now. Contrary to caricature, we don’t say “Ya sure ya betcha”. We shout “Fuck ICE!”

Spend my evening hear my kid cry about how he feels like his mom is quitting him and how hurt he is that she prioritizes her besties kids over him. It’s so fucking hard to hear him hurting so much. Tabitha, I hope the world someday discovers who you are.

I had some andouille in my fridge and threw together a soup with that, a couscous/bean blend from Trader Joe’s, a bunch of spare vegetables, and home made chicken stock, and then topped it with fried sage off of the garden plant, and aged Gouda. Sometimes cooking feels like being a super hero.

Are you holding a grudge or do you just need time to process through what you’ve been through? What if you don’t want accept an apology as soon the perpetrator is in the place to apologize? Maybe you should be allowed to be ready to forgive on your own time, instead of on theirs.

I AM ONCE AGAIN ASKING you to hire me to do an excellent job editing your manuscript 🫡

It's me, Nico.@nicasio.bsky.social

If you've got a novel manuscript in need of developmental editing, a quick-but-incisive overall evaluation, or a sensitivity read, then hit me up! I've got spots open starting mid-month, and can't wait to get my grubby little hands all up in your stories.

Apparently Tuesdays are queer night at Costco because I swear to god every other cart was pushed by the most wonderful array of crust punks and nonbinary babes and all manner of weirdo.

This asshole made it out of our house today, through a screen hole we had not noticed. Three cheers for the gays across the street who noticed us panic-searching and then noticed the beardie walking on up to their building and asked if we were looking for him. He made it ACROSS THE STREET. 🤯

Went to my first session of spine strength Pt, where I am strapped into various machines that make my core muscles work right. It was legit fucking awesome and I’m looking forward to my next 6-12 weeks of being strapped into big machines 😂

Baked af teenager did a midnight snack, left out the package of butter and half a loaf of bread. Robert ate both, probably washed it down with a ton of water, pissed in the kitchen. I’m. 🤯

I think I've been averaging more migraine days than not migraine days pretty regularly for months and I am real tired of it. I have a doc appt next week but I also have very little faith that it's going to help any.

I probably wouldn’t see kiddo that much but regardless I’m pretty sure he’s going to be at his moms most of the time (fewer rules/oversight, enough disposable income that they order out daily, house cleaner). I could work mostly remotely and have ~2 in-office days.

This morning someone was walking in the alley behind my house and asked if had any money. I had like $2 in cash and gave it to her, and in return she offered me a loose stick of butter she had found. It was kind of great.

I am very sad today, so I am currently icing my face with a frozen half pound of butter, which gives me positive sensory stimulus, and also once it’s thawed I can use it to bake something. I’m a mental health professional!
