Is anyone else going to DC Pride this Saturday? I know we have our own Pride here in town next weekend- which is amazing- but nothing wrong with Double Priding, right? 😂

[THABISA, WENTWORTHS]

I'm closing on the townhouse next Tuesday. 😱

I graduate in fourteen days, and this year I have two furballs to call me mama. It's a good day.

I have an appointment with Iris Waters tomorrow after work. It's probably a pretty terrible idea to start looking for a house when I'll have finals and all of that to contend with, too, but [...] oh well?

Hey, Thabisa... I know you're gay as hell, but can I take you straight to prom?

I never thought I'd be a cat person, but this tiny Goose may change my mind yet.

She has dental surgery this week. I'm only sort- not even her mama, but I'm fretting like one.

WENTWORTHS + MAIA

I'm sure you've all already figured this out already, so you can spare me your sarcastic surprise. Just officially letting you all know that Maia and I are back together. We talked it over with Kylie and got her seal of approval, so no more trying to hide it anymore.

Today is a most auspicious day, because not only is it that classic weekly holiday of Throwback Thursday on the social medias, but it is also the anniversary of the day my sweet Galadriel came into my life. And so, while this is not Instagram, I'm still using it as a space to show my girl's glow up -- though, let's be quite honest, she was glowing pretty much from the start.

A little background: I adopted Galadriel the January before my first book in my current series was released. I was bartending and one of the waitresses had a cat that had kittens and she was giving them away. Between working at the bar (and waitressing at another restaurant) to pay my rent and trying to meet deadlines on my book, I really didn't see much outside of the room I was renting and it was pretty lonely. So, I took one of the kittens and it ended up being one of my best decisions. I like to think of her as my good luck charm, because I've had some great things happen since she came into my life.

Anyway, the reason we're all here. ( Cut for kitty photos! )

And now I very much would like to see your pets and hear some stories behind them! I'm very much a cat person and have no problem admitting it, but I am accepting of all the rest of the pets out there. Bonus points if you include baby and current pictures.

PS: I would be remiss not to mention Arwen (as for me and my house, we will stan elves of all kinds), so here is a video from literally 45 minutes ago when she decided it was time for Mom to stop working.

I've been taking night classes every semester- even summers and winter half terms- since I was offered a (once in a lifetime) full time job with SI halfway through my junior year at University of Dunhaven. I thought for sure that I'd end up graduating at least a year (if not more) behind the rest of my peers because of it, but, somehow, I just got notice that I'll be able to walk after this year's spring term. Right on time.

WENTWORTHS GROUP TEXT

-- Everyone okay? I have a feeling this is going to be a bad one. I'm heading to the store in my truck to pick up some extra supplies. Do any of you need anything? I can bring it by on my way to check on Kaylie and Maia.

TEXTS TO MAIA

-- I'm stopping at the store for supplies, then Bear and I are coming to wait this out with you and the kid. If this gets worse, I don't want you two stuck on your own.

[Wentworth Siblings - Includes Maia]

So after Nutcracker tonight, I asked this girl someone I Thabisa a person if they'd come with me to the Salazar shindig tomorrow night.

Reply, quote, "I'm super gay, super out, and super into you, so..."

So I [...] guess I have a date.

And I may or may not be completely freaking out.

Just as an update, we're still looking for volunteers to read to students at the elementary school! Look here for more information.

Unrelated to that, would there be any interest in a Secret Santa gift exchange among the community? I remember doing something similar with smaller groups before I moved, but given that Dunhaven is so small as if sign ups are kept to this network, I feel as though it wouldn't be too overwhelming an idea. It seems like a fun way to meet new people and maybe spread some good cheer.

Let me know if you're out there and would be at all interested! You can just say so below or send me a private message, whichever you would prefer. Though, since Christmas is rapidly approaching, I am going to cut off sign ups this way on December 8 and then let people know who they all have for gifts to be delivered by the 25th.
