Ramblings

HBD T

by Kristi on December 21, 2024 · 0 comments


For years, Truck has written everyone very long and (rambling) beautiful birthday notes. It is his “thing” and for years I have told myself to write him notes in return. That’s his love language. He loves writing, he loves being written to. Some years I would. For a long time, I simply had no capacity […]

Will and Harper

by Kristi on September 15, 2024


I read a write-up in the WaPo that Will Ferrell did a documentary with his best friend that sounded fascinating. I really like Will Ferrell and am always interested in supporting the LBGTQ community. Since I don’t tend to watch a lot of TV at home with a short attention span recently, I wanted to […]

My other top highlights on TTPD Part 1 are Guilty as Sin, Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me, and the actual named SONG Tortured Poets Department which I feel is overlooked? Let’s start with the only one I made a note of on my first listen which was Little Old Me and I wrote “that […]

Down Bad, Alchemy, Daddy – TTPD Deep Dive

by Kristi on August 23, 2024


My next three ear worms from TTPD are Down Bad, Alchemy, and … But Daddy I Love Him. I’m trying to get to the point where I rank the songs in the album but it’s so hard because it depends on the day, time, month of which songs I’m skipping or repeating! I’m trying to […]

loml: TTPD deep dive

by Kristi on August 17, 2024


loml is a song that hits so hard. It’s lyrically amazing. No one seems to know if it’s about Joe A, Joe J, Matt, or… anyone else. Does it matter? No. But if it’s about Matt (which I tend to think it may be), she had him on the back burner for years. They continually […]

44

by Kristi on August 8, 2024


44 is anxiety 44 is uncertainty 44 is heartbreak 44 is clarity 44 is loving myself 44 is exploring 44 is curiosity It’s realizing that life is short and that I don’t want to just stay sane in the current moment. I want to be better. I want to do better and I want to […]

I’m on my way

by Kristi on August 3, 2024


Downside of watching Olympics… seeing commercials. Upside of watching Olympics? SEEING COMMERCIALS. I’m reminded of why my favorite TV day is Super Bowl Sunday JUST TO WATCH THE COMMERCIALS. Thanks Uber for making me cry…

Lessons

by Kristi on July 7, 2024


I hate it when you realize you should have done something and there is technically a fix for it and it won’t be that hard but it SEEMS really hard. And you just keep thinking of ways to not do the hard difficult thing. You make excuses and reasons for why it may be a […]

Wordless Wednesday: Danny

by Kristi on May 1, 2024


Happy 44th Danny! I visited your website that I made for you… that the domain name expired and went to someone else who built up a resume on the domain name. So trippy.

My butt hurts! (Easter!)

by Kristi on March 31, 2024


It CRACKS me up that I own this meme. To be fair, I’ve been posting/sending/emailing it to people long before Sam was born so it’s been 20+ years of it. This year G’s birthday was ON Easter (last time that happened was 11 years ago, I think!) so I had to post his birthday photos […]

Grateful

by Kristi on March 30, 2024


I’ve been struggling for a few weeks about gratitude and sadness. When I practice gratitude, I also feel a nice side helping of sadness right along with it. I had a friend tell me that was a little odd and we laughed about it. But it really doesn’t feel right. I was reflecting a bit […]

One Day

by Kristi on March 11, 2024


“Any regrets though?” “None… I’m not being a footnote.” “A footnote?” “Yeah. In the story of your life.” I heard from at least three people that One Day was a sob story. And.. I just felt in the mood to sob. So I knew what I was getting in to. Then, 10 episodes in, I […]
