I’ve never been a giant fan of Amy Poehler’s but I started listening to her book, Yes Please, today on Libby and it has been wonderful. Patrick Stewart reads a haiku about plastic surgery.

I was lying on our bed, looking up at the ceiling, listening to Poehler’s book and I thought, “This makes me so happy right now.”

Usually, I can’t do audiobooks because I’m never still. I’m always doing stuff, so I lose track of the book. But today I finally replaced the gross shower curtain liner (and damn I feel so good about doing it) and I stood in the shower with my boots, straddling the edges, and laughing at Poehler’s wisdom, as I completed the annoying task of taking off each shower ring hook and putting it back on. (Fortunately, my partner 3D-printed new shower ring hooks that don’t get stuck in that irritating fashion.)

Anyways, today was a good day. God, I need all of these laughs.

P.S. I have a pet scorpion and I went to the store to buy her meal worms. My partner discovered her drinking water today. Neither of us has ever seen her do that before. So here is a photo of her being majestical. Yes, I do really love her. She is my spirit animal. She is fierce and takes a long time to trust you. Even then, she will fight you.
