Do you ever have something big going on, and you think you're on top of things and really organized, but when you actually start doing all the things, you realize you were really only organized in your head, and all the things are going to take longer than you have time for?
Put an echo dot in the main bathroom, and I'm getting a kick out of the music choices of my showering children. So far this morning we've had a round of country music, and now it's all Stevie Wonder.
This morning I said, “Alexa, play music…” and I paused, trying to decide which artist. But Alexa said, “Okay,” and the music started. That was 2 1/2 hours ago, and I’ve loved every song she’s played except for one. So now Alexa is my new best friend, and I’m totally creeped out.
When you think, I'm sick of looking at this--I'm just going to press send, do NOT go back and read the email. Live in the fantasy that you made no spelling or grammar errors. (I'm pretty sure Brian's been called Brain a million times, so it's all good!)
This morning I went on the hunt for two red leather side chairs I saw advertised at a thrift store on facebook marketplace, because who doesn’t want red leather side chairs? But when I got there, one of them had been sold, and no one wants only one red leather side chair.
So I will put it out there that I’m just a little freaked out that my mother had open heart surgery yesterday. I wish I had gotten those red leather side chairs so I could tell her all about it when she wakes up.
A tweet about tweets:
One of our pair of male parakeets laid four eggs, which means one is not male after all. And one of those eggs hatched, its tiny tweets drawing our attention to its tiny self inside a hanging coconut. Mother and baby are doing fine. Daddy’s being a big help.
@TheAmandaGold @TSNOTYAW @TallPoppyWriter I read your pitch out loud to my 13 year old who said, "Where can I read that book?" Congratulations! You knocked it out of the park.

This is a video of two women—one of whom gave her kidney to the other—meeting in person for the 1st time.
Today I had the quiet joy of witnessing this moment for @CBSSunday.
With recipient @kellyhartog & donor @PamelaStockwell
