February 11-14
Day 1
Singers who perform at bars for money or like wedding singers… how do they get away with not paying royalties to the people who do the songs they cover?
Ok so being a little high makes me wonder if my kid is like a secret super genius like Stewie on family but
Omg Seth McFarlane was high when he created stewie
Family Guy
Fuck parenting while high is a trip
My kid is trying to put on clothes by himself. It’s the first time he’s tried the head hole. It’s wild.
How bout mommy makes some cinnamon rolls that we can have as a snack while we watch the concert (and definitely not because I have the munchies).
Ok two thoughts. Why doesn’t anyone make coloring books with kids that have Down syndrome in them? And I can’t decide if it would be tasteless for me to take that up as a project.
Is Billie Jean king doing the coin toss?
The tv is really fuzzy
ONG it is her!
And btw I think I’m coming down. 1/4 of a brownie gives me about a 4 hour high. Take every four hours.

I just drank some water and I’m a little high from the brownie I ate and I think I experienced why my husband loves water so much
Tonight high me is designing bathroom remodels
Bathroom wish lists
Upstairs
◦ Drawers in vanity
◦ Built in shelves in shower for storage
◦ Deeper tub
◦ New floor (fun pattern)
◦ Curved shower curtain rod
◦ Mold resistant paint
◦ More wall storage
◦ Freestanding vanity lights
◦ Mirror
◦ Repaint and permanent hooks on back of door
◦ Shelves on wall next to door next to sink
◦ White cool light
Downstairs
◦ Close TP hole downstairs
◦ New sink downstairs
◦ Backsplash downstairs
◦ Storage (ikea shoe cabinets? Slim) does tp fit in them? Or will we need another tp storage solution — maybe that under sink shelf thing? They’re 7” deep from the wall. Reviews mention that they are good behind a door and duh, we have the ones attached to the door to begin with that take up that much room. ONG this is the perfect storage solution for that bathroom.
◦ White light cool
Both bathrooms same shade of grayish blue but different styles.
Downstairs square white modern
Upstairs white and black patterned tile floor with the blue walls (like that laundry room floor, but the downstairs bathroom floor is black and white too) but then I’d need to go simple with the shower curtain pattern because it’s such a small bathroom if you want it to look serene it can’t look too busy
Did I just figure out the secret to interior design?’apparently high me is into decor in a way that sober me is not. I’m finally able to envision what I actually want in a remodel!
I was too tired to draw upstairs but I did plan it out
I might finish designing my bathroom Reno tonight because I just ate another brownie quarter
I even thought about options for paying for it too
I have such a tiny amount of floor in the upstairs bathroom that I am considering splurging and going with ceramic tile, since it gets so wet up there with bathing my kiddo and doggo
How funny would it be to design a floor tile that was fancy like that but was secretly dicks? Like where it’s kind of hard to tell (no pun intended).
I’m developing a high end, medium, and low end plan to figure out pros and cons of making minor cheap changes ourselves and what we’d do if we hired someone to do it.
I needed to draw the floor tiles
Needed to see if it would look too busy
Day 2
It would CRUSH me if I ever did something that would make my kiddo not want to spend time with me. Please promise me if he ever feels that way toward me that you will give me a come to Jesus talk and tell me to get my shit together so I don’t lose him.
I’m a little high and listening to country music and there was a song about a dad who lost touch with his daughter and it made my chest hurt
HOW DO I MARKET A FONT THAT I CREATED OMG I CREATE FONTS NOW AND OMG DO I WANT TO BECOME THAT PERSON THAG RYPES JN CAPS ALL THE TIME? That might be fun. Fuck. Zuck doesn’t think so and he autocorrected me what a dickwad ha! He knows that word. LOL. Mirror much?
Also ONG. What if I took the samples
Of my mom’s handwriting and turned it into a font and we used that for the cookbook my brother wants to make?
I kind of want it to be a surprise for him so I need to figure out how to do it and have it all ready to go when we get together
Apparently the high scholar is a fontface? Calligrapher?
What’s the word for someone who designs typeface?
High scholar.
Well shit. I doodled over my font
I Should sell that design to old navy. Seems like something they’d put on a t-shirt
Maybe with a bird on it or something
ONG put a bird on it from portlandia. Is that extra funny when you’re high? Was it written when they were high? Because it’s Oregon and crunchy? Or are they really like that?
Parody is a very confusing concept when I’m high
I had these ideas last night that I should never have felt ashamed of my doodling in school when I was a kid because it was my subconscious telling me I wasn’t doing enough to feed my creative side.
Day 3
A. When does C start?
B. I am going to call the doctor tomorrow about my back. It’s not actively spasming anymore and I have almost full range of movement but it’s really achey.
3. So I ate part of a brownie again tonight and felt compelled to respond to all of your memes with images. Well, not all of them. But a few.
4. I’m grateful for:
1. Popcorn even though SmartFood’s “movie theater butter” is a GROSS (meaning a lot, not untasty) EXAGGERATION.
2. I don’t remember what this was?
Oh 3. Gratinee. Gratitude. But Zuck is apparently hungry tonight.y phone suggested Zucksycakes just now. Is that him trying to flirt with me?
Omg this would be such a great book or short story idea (please don’t steal it) omg the high scholar is pursuing a MFA in creative writing!
The story is that a woman thinks the predictive text on her phone is really a computer turned sentient being? Or it’s really a CEO of a tech company stalking her? Or maybe it’s a lower level employee at a tech company? And what if we flip the genders? A woman employee is actually the one generating the predictive text for a man and ends up messing with him? Developing a romantic relationship? Could this be choose your own adventure? Or it would be kind of fun if it keeps getting confusing whether she’s really sociopathic or if there’s a true romantic connection. Oh! And what if he’s married? And he’s going crazy because he thinks he’s having an affair but it’s with his predictive text… so he goes crazy because he “knows that could never happen” but still thinks it’s happening and all the while it really is happening. See; this isn’t circuitous. This is storytelling.
Omg this is a great idea. I’ve noticed that usually the halfway point of a novel is when something turns (the turning point, if you will).
So the first half is the development of a relationship. Then the middle is where his wife suspects him of an affair. Then the second half is the denouement. Where we explore his psychosis and the woman behind it. ONG. The first half the reader doesn’t know that there’s really a woman doing it. Whoa a
When I was a kid I wanted to be a writer. I loved creative writing. When I took poetry writing in college, i sucked at writing poems but I was great at workshopping them. I’ve always thought I just didn’t have that variety of creativity. I can recognize a great idea, i can workshop it, but i know that I can’t really think up the idea for the story. I think that’s why i like making functional pottery rather than sculpture or even painting. Even if i make something super boring, it’s still useful. Craft. Am i bit an artist? Am i a crafter? Is that the difference? Before I start to belittle myself I feel like imma need to look up the formal definitions of artist and crafter.
Anyway.
As an adult, and having done so much reading, I’ve often felt that I could write a book but haven’t really had a story to tell. I think my grandmother’s life story would make a good novel but I would be uncomfortable with my aunts reading it. It’s their mother. And I’d have to fictionalize their stories. And I don’t want them thinking I was trying to profit of exploit them in any way.
But this is an entirely fictional (RIGHT, Zuck?) concept.
Have to figure out how to build up the first half. Who is the protagonist texting where his phone has the ability to fuck with him? Maybe his wife. And the other people he randomly texts with… his mom, his sister, his neighbor, a co worker, someone from the dog park.
And this is a modern couple. In their 40s. It’s gotta be relatable af. Use details from my own life. We’re not going to talk about suburban cookie cutter people. I’m going to write a character like my husband. Maybe he’ll even be a ride share driver! It would be funny if the wife complained in her text messages about how her phone won’t autocorrect menstruation or constipation. And the guy’s phone did it perfectly every time.
I was thinking this couldn’t be a movie/screenplay, but honestly the format of video would actually
Make the predictive text parts funny. To be able to animate them. Maybe the entire first half of the novel is written in text messages. Epistolary.
Modern epistolary.
Post modern epistolary? I
I think one of the reasons I feel inadequate as a scholar is because I don’t understand some of the lingo
Also Wouldn’t it be meta if the guy’s wife was the high scholar? Like that was her character.
Maybe I’ll even fantasy have her monetize the blog and make money off
Of it nah I don’t actually know how they works. Write what you know. Except maybe the high scholar will still work in higher ed. It would be nice to put that degree to use. The idea of writing about that experience and I only had the experience because I got the degree
I wish I were impulsive enough and IDGAF enough to call off work tomorrow and write all day
Maybe I’ll start using my down time when I travel for work to write
It’s not like I can bring my other creative hobbies on the road
You know what part of the book I’d totally mail? The “special thanks” section.
Nail
I should really map this book out
