So @Coheed I think @ArchersUS needs to be on your next tour. Saw them live tonight in Providence and the energy would be ✨immaculate✨

[lauren @nerdlauren]

@Weerd_Science @Coheed I’m so glad you liked it, the Vaxis albums are basically all I play now when I’m crafting and your drumming gives me so much creative energy!

[lauren @nerdlauren]

.@Coheed was absolutely amazing tonight, I don’t know how they get better every time! The meet and greet was super fun, too bad I forgot to take a photo of the gift I left with @Weerd_Science 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

[lauren @nerdlauren]

Ok but hear me out: one of the Soft Places from @neilhimself’s Sandman is @erinmorgenstern’s Starless Sea

[lauren @nerdlauren]

@Coheed killed it last night in Worcester. Everything hurts, and I want to do it all again immediately

[lauren @nerdlauren]

The fight in TX is so incredibly important, but brings up the worst, lowest of memories. Then the guilt of not being as active as I could be hits, and brings my exhausted rage to a boil.

I hope every politician in TX wakes up tomorrow 45 days pregnant.

When shopping for craft supplies, please do not hold up a sample product and yell “Which hole do you like best?”

I haven’t had nearly enough coffee, thank god for masks

@Cheyblondie …once upon a time I told them they could be in charge when they were taller than me and I’m glad that no longer applies 😂😂

She’s so concerned about the bath water I might be trapped in, she had to sleep on my pjs

I realized today my first tattoo is almost old enough to buy booze, but yesterday one of our sales reps thought I was 28. Does anyone else have an ambiguous age presentation like this?

[lauren @nerdlauren]

@KelseyUtne We have definitely not sat at a table during a wedding reception with wine, a dictionary, and implements of writing destruction, giggling 😁😁😁

[lauren @nerdlauren]

Bless my work kid: he deemed the person who claimed he and his son have a gift certificate for a class tomorrow at closing time to be “wicked sus” and is changing his schedule so I’m not here alone with two dudes we don’t know

While I love the idea of the cake-style (no plastic packaging, lasts way longer, is more sanitary) mascara I got, it is... not going to replace my current brand.

It will be useful for specific circumstances, just none where I want my makeup to stay in place

[lauren @nerdlauren]

Shot #2, done! I’m remembering how to filter myself in public again, managed not to voice my disappointment when the nurse warned me it would only hurt a little. “Touch-starved masochist” is not a state I recommend

[lauren @nerdlauren]

Ordering anything online and not checking the shipping address when you’ve moved a dozen times in 10 years is a brave choice

[lauren @nerdlauren]

@10erian Hear me out: mash a banana, mix in an egg, add to pancake mix. Cook on slightly lower heat, add the chocolate chips. Let cool to palatable temperature, top with a little peanut butter. It’s dessert that qualifies as a semi-healthy breakfast!

[lauren @nerdlauren]

There is not enough coffee to make today functional.

Thursday will be an all-day pajama day as a result, perhaps featuring chocolate chip pancakes?

[lauren @nerdlauren]

I never know what to do with myself when I finish a book, nevermind a trilogy (given its finale, it can’t be expanded to a larger series.)
I lived in that world for days, and I’m supposed to just move on after being unceremoniously thrown back in reality?!

Rude

Brand new employee a decade younger than me: stop asking me questions about my personal life in an almost parental tone. It’s grating and insulting.

[lauren @nerdlauren]

I didn’t believe my sadist when he insisted I had a high pain tolerance, and then I realized that the bone-deep ache from my Pfizer shot is what some people find *painful*?? How do the muggles function, I worry about their weekly NSAID intake
