Chris’ parents are in town and we have planned an evening at the Salish lodge for date night

we’re gonna have dinner!! And watch bullshit tv and drink champagne and then get massages in the morning!

and Callen will be safely with grandparents who are insane about him

a treat for everyone

that’s so great. recharge time!!

oh very good -- enjoy yourselves!!

Yo

omgosh that looks so cozy

they gave us little cocktails when we arrived! It’s like the white lotus!!!!

the rose petals

ahhh delightful

ahhh twin peaks

view from restaurant table??!!?

YOOOOOOO

gorgeous!!

whoooooa that's amazing

obviously I looked at the ADULT ZONE and was not disappointed

we’re watching pumpkin wars or fucking whatever on food network and this is exactly what we wanted from this evening

we’re rich now

abyssal re rose petals we got the Romantic Night In package which has mostly involved throwing rose petals at each other and hiding them in the bed to be annoying

we just wanted the champagne and chocolate strawberries

we’re gonna bring petals home for Callen to play with. They smell nice

glad you guys got a nice break

this looks so chill and nice, glad you guys finally got a night free

hee hee hee, love it

oh this is fun! I'm glad you're having a good time

bro I’m relaxed as fuck

we got a massage and hung out in the waterfall pool and I became weirdly obsessed with the steam room

my sinuses are the clearest they’ve ever been

THRILLED for all of this glad you got some RnR

I am getting used to texturing finally. even tried my map on an animated model and it doesn't suck

we're gonna make it

yaaay

getting my eyelids lasered again today

also work is being stressful bc I fucked a thing up and disrupted the flow bc I’m learning new stuff

I’m trying boohoo

I get especially tilted by situations like these because Traumas

everyone’s being nice and professional but I can tell my producer is bothered and that sucks

the only thing that can fix me is tails gets trolled

I’m still so stressed from today, I almost cried at my AD lol

a lot of the items on tomorrow’s retro are about this specific situation

feels bad, feels like everyone’s mad at me even tho I know logically they aren’t and that learning new skills is hard and takes time

augh dude. you're doing your best and things will get fixed.

+ one more day of it and then you get to escape to the weekend.

it happens + you'll get past it. grips your shoulder

I’m furniture Check out this photo that just appeared on my Aura Frame!

also work today was fine and everyone was nice

lmao the aura frame text

keeping it

I'm not sure what any of this means but I like the photo lol

and that you're both wearing stripes

Pippin is a father to all babies

aw sweet boy

stew >:U

makin some GF drop biscuits to go with it

ooooh

Halloween lights

excellent october vibes on both counts

rowdy dirtyboy

gosh his face is so good + i initially thought that shirt said "O is for Delaware" and was going to have to try you at the hague

but crisis averted

i would wear an O is for Delaware shirt

he's so expressive

i would also wear an O is for Delaware shirt

especially if Callen wore it first, making it the next trend in super cool clothes

I also read it as o

and lost my shit

hahahaha

I had hopes of a change but mom’s sharing Trump shit on Facebook again

fucking kill me

uggggggh come onnnnnnn

I was mistaken and apparently she was tagged in somebody else's Trump post. at least.

but she liked it.

the age old question of 'is my mom so morally spineless that she'll go along with what the people around her think just to shut them up, or does she actually believe in what this fucker says'

i hope it’s the former, but if it is, ugh, disappointing for other reasons

today we're having an assessment with a like... gardening company bc I want them to tell me how I'm fucking up/can fix stuff

and also set up quarterly visits so they can trim shit and keep things from going crazy

so DEBBIE from NEXT DOOR will FUCK OFF

(and so we don't obstruct the sidewalk)

it's the age old ish of I don't know what I don't know, there are a lot of plants here and I love them but don't know how to care properly for all of them

in many cases bc I don't actually know what they are

oh neat, this is good knowledge to acquire

and a nice prospect to have someone else to help manage it at regular intervals tbh, your yard is gorgeous but i bet a lot

yeah I could probably deal with it if we didn't have an almost-two-year-old but

lol lmao etc

very valid reason to just not deal with a thing tbh

"can't, too busy teaching this guy to be a person"

god the last three nights have been so sleep disrupty, it's 2:30pm and Chris and I are both dead on my feet

our feet. we're not both dead on mine.

you get my meaning

I'm about to go talk about things with strangers and I would frankly rather take a nap

i'll take a nap for you

helping

GREAT NEWS: I have not killed my lilac OR hydrangeas

they're just resting.

I took a page out of callen's book and just walked around my own yard pointing at things and saying "what's that" while the guy explained everything

he was cool and I'm excited to work with them

yay good!!

did he tell you what kind of cherry tree it is?

ohh I didn't think to ask

I just said 'cherry' and pointed to it and he said 'yes'

he did however confirm that the red berry bush is huckleberries and we can eat them

which I guess we've technically known since k2 ate one

you let my precious k2 eat strange berries!!!

you should put a shark fin on the bush for halloween

i heard k2 ate that berry with almost no provocation

if i recall k2 confidently identified and ate the berries and then was like i guess we'll find out if i'm right

this all sounds very ic

I thought Donna gave it to her

and she just put it in her mouth

how are you all still alive

huckleberries have a distinctive stem attachment and I'm also not a coward

or a small child. don't let callen just eat any berries ofc I have more body mass

it went like this

me, carrying a berry "you guys have Huckleberries"

Kate "Oh let me see"

puts in mouth

I do think I might have said beforehand "I might not eat it though since I could be wrong"

and then after a couple of very confident minutes Kate asked me to show her the bushes so she could double check with the phone

which was my favorite element

people who aren't cowards trust but verify

the thing is im like well I know they're huckleberries

I learned this from the most reliable source possible to me at 7 years old, the 8 year old boy who lived next door
