Do what?

So much this! I was in therapy for depression. I had no idea that I had ADHD, just internalized the stuff about being lazy, not trying hard enough, etc. Then I eventually got a therapist who has ADHD. She started sprinkling in stories from her own life, and every time I was like “OMG, I relate so hard to that!” Eventually she was like, “Sooo have you considered…?”

Who do?

What power?

What babe?

There’s a place just a 5 minute walk from me that does $10 any size up to 5 toppings every Monday… So my weekly extra large 5 topping pizza is the only pizza I eat now. I have no memory of other pizzas. (It is actually pretty good though!)

I’m not really interested in oil changes, but my Chevy bolt is chugging along just fine. Anything but Tesla.

This checks for me as a teacher. It’s obviously not a cure all since there could be many other things in play, but it’s wild how much progress kids with major behavior issues can make when they’re given consistency.

Belgium and the Netherlands this July!

I typically calculate a 20% tip and then round up. For demographic purposes, I’m a millennial in the US.

A couple days ago; I’m an elementary music teacher so it happens pretty often.

Family. I’m very lucky to have a good one. I grew up with parents who moved away from their families before I was born, but we always traveled back - once in the summer, and then again for Christmas. Despite living a ways away, I had great relationships with my grandparents, cousins, etc.

Then it was my turn to move away. I’ll be home for Christmas. :)

Yes! Nat King Cole is my jam.

I don’t know anything about her; what is it that you don’t like?

Upvoted for the tamagotchi / virtual pets. The other stuff, too, but mostly the virtual pets.

Yes, teachers are mandated reporters. They will be able to get the ball rolling.

Somewhat haphazardly. I typically listen to multiple genres in one session as well. What I usually do is if I hear a song I like that’s not already in a playlist (or if I like it enough that I want it in multiple playlists), I’ll chuck it in at the end of one. Then when I have downtime I play around with the song order so that I like how each song transitions to the next. I enjoy doing that as a way to unwind. This method isn’t great if you’re the type that needs everything organized all the time though since my playlists are usually in some level of a work in progress state! The names are very boring - P01, P02, etc. I also have some playlists that are more themed, for instance a road trip playlist with more upbeat songs. I’ll usually play around with that one based on who is road tripping with me and what type of music I think they’ll enjoy.

One winter evening I got a notification about possible fraudulent charges on my credit card. I had not in fact gone to Redbox twice that day, so I told them to replace the card. I got home and really had to pee so I beelined it to the bathroom. It occurred to me that it was really cold inside for some reason, and when I got out of the bathroom I noticed the living room window was open. Then I looked around and noticed that on my way to the bathroom I had walked past a bunch of drawers and cabinets that were also open.

Luckily not much of consequence got stolen. Whoever it was probably didn’t have a car because everything that was taken was small. We had a nice TV and my ex had a nice computer that were both still there. On my end, I was missing that credit card (I had accidentally left it on my desk after making an online purchase) and my wedding and engagement rings. I was in the middle of a divorce and wasn’t going to keep them anyway, so hopefully someone else got some enjoyment out of them.
