I smoked for 28 years, and I loved it. LOVED it. Aside from family, my longest relationship was with Parliaments.

I stopped smoking 7 weeks ago. No slips. I miss the after dinner cig, but not the others

Everything tastes weird.

Still worth it.

House is clean. Food is cooked. Presents wrapped. Tree is lit.

Sitting in my favorite reading chair and enjoying the quiet before tomorrow's madness.

Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎄

Made rolls and fancy butter for everyone this year for Christmas gifts.

I love my people, but never again. I look like I've been through a war -- flour EVERYWHERE, bloodied knuckles, dogs hovering like vultures. Next year they all get Panera gift cards. 😂

Thinking about how I pride myself on being a well-informed adult, and yet have been unable to complete a single local, national or international news story in the last month without immediately wishing I hadn't.

Ignorance isn't bliss, but being informed is a f***ing nightmare these days.

My house is a union house.

I wish I could tell you what I'm feeling after watching President Biden on that UAW picket line, but every time I try the lump in my throat gets bigger, and I cry all over again.

Thank you, President Biden. Thank you.

Menendez has always been a crook, and we've always known it. It was fine -- a little dirt on your hands is expected when you're in politics in NJ.

But it's time for Bribery Bob to give up the ghost. Step down and let Murphy name a replacement, dude. #CountryFirst

I hope Tarrio feels lonely, frightened, and hopeless for every single minute of his 22 years in prison.

Addendum: unions care for their own, so they can care for everyone else. Some of the benefits include:

The "Help a Brother" fund
Continuing education classes
Scholarship fund
Pensions
Annuities
Health coverage that includes vision and dental
"Vacation" funds

In celebration of Labor Day, a short story.

For years, my husband installed fencing. He handled the sales and dug the holes for the posts; it wasn't an easy job. Joint-destroying labor in brutal weather for months on end.

@cbouzy -- I'll give you 32 cents and a small picture of Fiona Apple if you bring back the "hide echoes" button. (If your team is working on it already, I'll be patient and you can still have the prizes.)

Today, I had to spend 10 minutes of my day pasting applicable federal laws into an email so I could explain to a client why he couldn't change the pronouns in his new employee's bio, nor delete a reference to that employee's spouse.

Some days are harder than others.

I understand that echoing spouts is an important part of the experience given the whole "no algorithm" thing but holy moly, I could hug @cbouzy for this "hide echoes" feature. It has legit made this platform 💯 better for me, and I already loved this platform. #grateful

Got home last night from a week-long vacation in the UK. It was a lovely trip, but I'm happy to be home.

I missed a lot of news. Anyone go to jail that I should know about? 😉

America is a place of promises: some recognized, some in constant progress, some unkept.

This one, I think, is the best of us: defiant, protective, encompassing. I love the promise of this America.

Happy 4th, everyone!

Every year, my husband ("Handsome," because he is) and I throw a massive July 4th party. This year's party starts in a few hours.

I don't feel very celebratory; I haven't for the last several years. But I'm still in awe of our country and the Great American Experiment.

Folks, I was having A DAY yesterday and so many of you reached out with words of kindness.

People in this space have that generosity of spirit even after all these years of turmoil and hardship in this country -- and it gives me hope. YOU give me hope.

Thank you, friends. ❤️

Anyone ever have a day so bad at work that you'd rather sell your house and live out of your car than go back the next day?

That's been the last six months for me. But I've no idea what I'd do as an alternative for work.

Send peaceful thoughts, y'all. I need 'em.

One of my dogs needs an ultrasound today, and the worst part of the morning is trying to explain to BOTH dogs why they can't have breakfast. Their faces are killing me.

The pundits and the press swooning over Christie -- it nauseates me. He was the governor of my state for 8 years, so I had a constituent's front-row view to him at all times.

I get that people's memories are short.

But mine is not.

My utter disdain for Christie runs deeper than my disdain for anyone else, even Trump. Because you knew who Trump was from the start.

But Christie? He's a snake. Gift article below.

The Business of Being Chris Christie - The New York Times

Mr. Christie left the governor’s office in New Jersey and set out to, as he put it, “make money.” He successfully traded on his political profile — and on his ties to the man he now wants to defeat.
