PUT THEM OUT OF THEIR MISSOURI 🙌

Meteor strike in Cleveland this morning, ice coated sidewalks, happy st paddy’s day? ☘️

[Mel @discolights]

Sorry, but Miami should have never been ranked below 8 🤷‍♀️

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

The most stunning upset in 12 years of the College Football Playoff. No question.

@rockerskating I think synchro nationals are at the Maverik this season, and I suspect there will be more opportunities for us to get used to the venue in the lead up to the games! SLC has some organizers who are very motivated to host competitions.

@Post_Brodie I opened up the app to see if you’d seen this!

[Mel @discolights]

update i spoke too soon

[Mel @discolights]

huge thanks to the incessant rain for really putting a damper on the usual fireworks in my neighbourhood

[Mel @discolights]

@danielleearl93 i also do not understand this

[Mel @discolights]

It only took 2 1/2 years, but we finally got a recycling can from the City of Cleveland!

[Mel @discolights]

there’s also no chairs in the lobby?? And hardly any chairs/tables near the snack bar?? This place is shockingly anti-comfort for grownups

[Mel @discolights]

one thing I did not expect about great wolf lodge is for the chairs in the water park to be so terribly uncomfortable 😫

@clhubes (Just kidding, I want to see less Elsa on my TV, not more)

[Mel @discolights]

@clhubes I’ve always assumed there’s some sort of Rasputin-type regent, but I’d really like to see Frozen 1.5, in which Elsa has to wrestle power back now that she’s old enough.

[Mel @discolights]

truly cruel that as something with an advanced maternal age pregnancy, my main pregnancy side effects are aches & pains, exhaustion, and age spots.

where is the luscious pregnancy hair?! where was the 2nd trimester burst of energy?! the glowy skin?!

[Mel @discolights]

all of her loved ones have elaborate games in which we have scripted content. with me, she plays baby bird or baby/mama (i'm the baby). with her dad, she's a lion cub. with her uncle, she's a dragon. apparently the games have expanded to recess!

[Mel @discolights]

took cupcakes to my kiddo's class for her birthday today, and they went around the class and everyone said something like about her (in mandarin!). most popular answer: her games. 🤣🤣🤣

[Mel @discolights]

No one nearly sat on me while boarding my flight so not a bad start to weekend travel.

“Is it still morning?”

[Mel @discolights]

"is it morning still?"
- my 5yo at 9:49am

(i told her no treats because it's still morning, and we don't trick-or-treat until after dinner)
