I just wanted a coffee

Picture is of a kitchen floor with coffee beans scattered accross it from where the bag split as I opened it up.

Lack of proprioception is a bitch when you're trying to exercise / "work out."

This is definitely a lifelong problem that "makes sense" once I started to realize I'm autistic… I'm an epic klutz. Door frames, table corners, things-at-knee-height, etc, are constantly MOVING and RUNNING INTO ME. 🙃 My parents can often be heard saying, "It's a good thing we didn't name you Grace!" (they love me, really) When I was performing in musicals, in spite of HOURS of rehearsal with CHOREOGRAPHED moves (so I just had to "learn" it, in theory, right?) I never really was good at the dancing part of it. (Opening night of Funny Girl — yes, I was Fanny Brice — after "Don't Rain On My Parade" closes Act 1, the choreographer pulled me aside backstage and hissed, "that wasn't my choreography!!" and I had a minor meltdown in my leading man's arms, bless him.) It's hard to explain — it's like I dissociate even MORE from my body when I'm trying to perform specific "moves." My vision goes tunnel, if not completely black. It's like I'm trying to focus so hard on moving my body the right way that I pull completely into myself.

So… for the gazillionth time, I'm trying to start and stick to a little exercise / workout regime. Vanity notwithstanding (that's another convo), 1) now that I'm sitting at a desk 40 hrs a week, I'm feeling old and achy 2) I don't want to be one of those 80-yr-olds who is doubled over and can't even lift their head because their bones and muscles are so weak / deteriorated. And the time to start preventing that is now.

But trying to follow along with the diagrams, I go into immediate brain-gears-grind-to-a-halt irritation when multiple limbs are involved, or even worse, opposing limbs doing opposing things. Like, my left leg is doing what while my right arm is doing what, what now? Videos are even worse because it's like… ok now I have to mentally mirror-flip the whole thing in my head. Can you do one facing AWAY from the camera so I can actually just literally follow along?! (No… I don't struggle with telling my left from my right… (I don't 'struggle' with wearing socks)… I just always have to mentally check which hand I write with. Every. Single. Time.)

Anyway. This has been a rant.

(Now, otoh, being a pianist, my HANDS are fine. I can pat my head and rub my stomach at the same time, I can do the switching-pointing-fingers while reciting-the-alphabet-alternating-with-numbers whole choir warmup thing. But my whole body?! Forget it.)

Outrageous & stupid: “Had the Trump administration not ham-handedly released the retouched perp-walk photo after Noem had released the original, we might not have known the reality of that arrest at all. This dishonesty is all the more reason why Americans’ right to record law enforcement activities must be protected. Without independent records and documentation of what’s happening, there’s no way to contradict the government’s lies.

“This incident raises the question of whether the Trump Administration feels emboldened to manipulate other photos for other propaganda purposes. Does it rework photos of the President to make him appear healthier, or more awake? Does it rework military or intelligence images to create pretexts for war? Does it rework photos of American citizens protesting or safeguarding their neighbors to justify a military deployment?” “

Manipulated to look more awake!! Ha ha ha. 🤣 Of course the Thump Administration manipulates: others, other stuff, other images, other narratives… They lie. All the time. The question is what else to do about it. (The article is a good start.)

My fellow clumsy bitches, what is the worst/most embarrassing thing you have spilled?

For me, liquid candle wax. Unpleasant.

I bash some part of my body on furniture about once a week. My fingers bear the brunt of it. Right now I have a lightly-bleeding finger from bashing a knuckle on the edge of a drawer while putting something into the drawer.

Someone please invent furniture that magically moves itself out of the way to prevent this sort of thing.

Good morning. 🌼🌼🌼

13 December 2025

I’m having one of those mornings where my brain and body aren’t quite in sync, so everything takes a little longer. Just a few minutes ago, I prepped Charlie’s food bowl and brought it into my office—only to realize what I’d done, turn around, and carry it back out to set it on his eating pad. Little slips like that have been happening all morning. And don’t get me started on the keyboard—it’s been a comedy of typos.

We all have off days, especially after a wild night of partying. As for me, I was off the chain: snacking on tortilla chips and queso until 10 PM while watching Death in Paradise. I know, I know—it’s a bit much, and I should probably slow down. If it’s any consolation, Charlie helped with the chips, so I wasn’t snacking alone.

When I was a kid in Spring Valley, California, I had a ceramic piggy bank shaped like a bull—something I picked up in Tijuana, Mexico, just down the road. It had a slot on top for slipping in coins and bills, but no opening to retrieve them. That was the point, I suppose: fill it up, then break it open. A good idea in theory. I think I managed to stash over twelve dollars in it, which was still a long way from full. But like most clever children, I figured out how to retrieve money through the slot—no smashing required.

I’ve always wondered why I called it a piggy bank when it was shaped like a bull. A true piggy bank should be shaped like a pig, right? Technically, I guess it was more of a bully bank. It was a bit tacky—painted in shades of red and black, like a sculptural version of one of those velvet bull paintings. Still, it had character. And it held my coins, my schemes, and a little piece of childhood ingenuity.

"Two white daisies rise from a sea of dark green, their petals crisp and radiant against the blurred backdrop of grass and foliage. The daisy in the foreground is in sharp focus—its delicate white petals fanned out like rays of soft light, encircling a vibrant yellow center that glows like a miniature sun. Each petal curves gently outward, some overlapping, some slightly curled, giving the flower a sense of motion even in stillness.

Behind it, a second daisy hovers in softer focus, echoing the shape and brightness of the first but with a dreamy haze that adds depth and distance. The background is a wash of deep green, blurred into abstraction, allowing the daisies to stand out like quiet stars in a twilight field.

The lighting is gentle and diffuse, casting no harsh shadows—just a soft illumination that enhances the purity and simplicity of the flowers. The overall mood is peaceful, intimate, and quietly joyful, as if the daisies were whispering to each other in the hush of morning light." - Microsoft Copilot

Bought some barefoot walking boots. I didn’t necessarily mean to, I was just seeing if I could get them on 0% PayPal credit. Somehow completed the transaction 😂

Oh well. At least I got them interest free.

I really love #zedEditor for most of my work. I use it for programming and to update markdown work journals. Remote folders are great. However, I ran into an annoying default setting today. Default keymaps for the project pane allow you to delete a file with just a `shift-D`. There is a `"skip_prompt":false"` argument set so it should prompt before deleting. Either it didn't or I accidentally dismissed it. Lost 6 hours of work. Deleted those keymaps.

I share my home with this creature who thinks that every clang, ping, ting, chink and slam from the kitchen means it is their mealtime - no matter if they've just eaten.

Everytime one is taking from or putting in something in the cupboard, one can feel the eyes on one's back.

It can get to one's nerves. Especially when one is #clumsy.
