You may want to revisit this previous post for a dose of realism or this one introducing my new relationship with the Slavic crone either before or after reading this story. Or you may want to let this one stand alone. Choose your own adventure, friends.

My paid content is more access to my life than I’m willing to offer every human, troll, and busybody with the Internet. People don’t usually pay a fee to be mean. If you can show your appreciation for my work financially, I’m super grateful. If Substack subscriptions aren’t in your budget, send me a message, and I’ll get you on the list. Assuming you’ll be kind.

The newest addition to my home office, a thoughtful gift from my husband.
