Allison Frase Reavis

At a stage of life where I want to give biographical details to the tune of CREATURE REPORT, CREATURE REPORT.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

Once, as a 30yo, I and my 1 yo weathered a tornado in the walk-in fridge of a gas station Subway, where I realized with great alarm that I was the oldest person in the considerable crowd. Anyway, that moment is fictionalized in a story here.

Is it my age or is it the culture that has turned my spam messages from "WATCH me LICK this LOLLIPOP IN BED" to "Re: 2026 Reunion!"

I'm in the dermatologist waiting room and "I Want Your Sex" by George Michael is playing. Me and the grannies here are really getting in the mood to strip down and examine some moles.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

Same, except Razorbacks.

Pray for these young Jets fans

They didn’t choose this life

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

One of my favorite parts of parenthood is checking in with other parents at gatherings to see how their Zelda games are going.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

Razorbacks ruining life expectancy for Arkansas.

I love college basketball & am happy to cheer for alma mater UNCW, but I hold a grudge against fans who told me to sit down at a game w/ 30 seconds remaining, UNCW down 2 but in possession of the ball. I would have performed the Curse of the Goat right there, iffin I had a goat.

People think Valentine's Day is for love, but it's actually a celebration of puns! And fancy desserts!

"What is your favorite idea you've ever had?" and other conversation starters from 9-year-olds on the day after Christmas.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

Hate to be negative, but it feels like a down year in wrapping paper design.

I can't believe a guy named Ducky DooLittle is changing the name of Fayetteville's Iconic Condom Sense to...Enchantasy?

Okay, Julia, the app is like $5, if you ever want to play! 😊 (And who do you think will win this season of Survivor?)

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

Turned 39 yesterday -- chipped a tooth on popcorn, spent a lot of time thinking about who was going to win this season of Survivor, played a zillion games of Codenames on the app

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

I had a long conversation with my hair dresser about her new favorite show, Mayor of Kingstown, except the whole time I was accidentally talking about Mare of Easttown. Mare/Mayor, tomato tomato. It's hard.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

The main activity was taking my kids to a water park when it was 75 degrees outside, like I'm a polar bear and not an actual tropical lizard.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

In Branson, doing my favorite activity (telling the stories of 4 separate ground hogs I have seen within city limits).

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

What I wish for all parents is for their children have an equal desire to swim, whatever that level is.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

@GirlwSpottedDog @splitlipthemag So, so great.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

There's a lot of Internet space given to childhood fears that turned out to not be a big deal, so I'd like to direct your attention to a childhood fear that holds up. Snapping turtles. Terrifying as a child, terrifying as an adult, but I seem to come across them more often now.

[Allison Frase Reavis @ArkansanAllison]

Me: I miss when everyone watched the same shows and movies because that was all that was on so we could all talk about it

The world: talks exclusively about Taylor Swift

Me, immediately: what does it take to get some variety around here
