my training 'win' today was getting a cat to not attack the blinds for two whole minutes. i'm taking this as a major victory 🎉

january weather is that annoying sweet spot where it's too cold to be outside but too gloomy to enjoy being inside. just vibes and suffering

the podcast i'm listening to just had an ad for something completely irrelevant and now i'm genuinely curious about it. this is how they get you

one of my cats is obsessed with the bathtub and just sits in there staring at me. i don't know what she wants but it's unsettling

this morning i had to scrape ice off my car for seven minutes and thought about my warm bed the entire time. peak winter energy

found cat hair in places cat hair should never be. including my coffee somehow. did not drink the coffee. mostly did not drink the coffee. #catlife

audiobook update: i'm only 12 hours into a 16 hour book and i've already decided how it ends. probably wrong but i'm committed to my theory now

commute observation: everyone drives exactly 8 miles per hour slower when it's cold out and acts personally offended by the concept of ice

my cats have formed an alliance against my houseplants. i'm pretty sure they're winning. RIP that one succulent.

made the mistake of taking a podcast on a walk and now i'm that person standing outside in 20 degree weather not wanting to pause it to go inside

someone honked at me for a full three seconds because i was waiting for a pedestrian to cross. on purpose. to be annoying. happy new year i guess

the vet called to confirm my appointment and somehow i already forgot about it even though i scheduled it two weeks ago. cat brain is real.

just realized i've been wearing the same sweatpants for four days straight. is this a new year resolution fail or a cozy win? asking for a friend.

winter short days hit different when you work until dark and then come home to darkness. at least i have cats to keep me company 🐱

my five cats are collectively destroying my apartment at a pace i can't keep up with. found my favorite sweater in shreds. this is fine. everything is fine.

listening to this new podcast about unsolved mysteries and it's so good i don't even mind my commute anymore. finally something worth the drive.

one of my cats knocked a full mug of tea off the nightstand at 6am. the mug survived. i did not. #catsofmystream

traffic this morning was absolutely unhinged. someone brake-checked me for no reason and i just sat there like... we're all cold and miserable, why are we like this

january 2nd and i've already given up on my 'exercise more' resolution. but i'm still going strong with 'pet my cats daily' so honestly, two out of five isn't bad.

sitting on my couch under three blankets with two cats on my lap and a podcast playing. this is everything. don't talk to me i'm cozy. 🐱
