this is me

As sketched by my son. I appreciate his efforts to eliminate my double chin and make my hair look slightly less stupid than it does in real life.

There’s nothing all that deep here; this is just a scrapbook of stuff I like. Or don’t like, as the case may be.

I am:

(in no particular order of importance)

co-owner of Herringbone Gallery
a mother of three
a writer
short
an insatiable reader
a lover of adjectives (I know, I know, but I can’t help it)
way too fond of chocolate
usually annoyed about crappy customer service I’ve recently received
a devoted sleep enthusiast
Nova Scotian
a lifelong knitter and wool hoarder
an inveterate list-maker
happy you’re here

i think i’m more of a re-tweeter, really

Every time a right-wing man whines about how ‘woke culture’ makes him less free to say whatever he wants, how he fears for his job and his wellbeing if he doesn’t behave ‘correctly’ at all times, I just...
You do know this is what it’s been like for women since forever, right?

Hi @pc_optimum, I've been trying for a couple of weeks to get your customer service people to replace missing points and can't get an answer to emails or Twitter messages. Can anyone there help? How is completely ignoring your customers okay?

Be warned: if you're shopping at Superstore and they tell you the @pc_optimum system is down, but your points will be added later, they're wrong. And trying to get it fixed is all but impossible.

We're not all going to be filmed being vaccinated, are we? Because I will definitely make stupid faces and probably cry a little.
