I want to be clear that we know this is how it went and it is clearly fairly accurate I also have not seen a citation for this so I do not know if it is a transcript so much as someone putting together how they think the call went. If anyone has a citation let me know.

I framed the law of attraction to kiddo this morning as a magic spell & it super helped her anxiety. Yesterday she had a very bad day. This morning she was worried she would have another bad day. I started asking her the things she was looking forward to & she got grumpy (con’t)
So I told her it was actually a magic spell and she had to say “I am looking forward to ____.” For three different real things to start her day and it would help bring good things to her (truthfully it is helping her LOOK for things to be good. We notice what we try to notice)
Anyway then she shared her magic spell with her friend and they both came bubbling out of school today “THE MAGIC SPELL WORKED” so… we use the secret now I guess 🤣
The first Disney princess film ever featured a passed out girl who maybe was dead being kissed without consent while unconscious by a dude she’d never met, but okay
He’s just a few years older than I am… so the little mermaid… where a teen girl violently changes her body and gives up her voice to marry a man who kills and eats her family and friends as sport was a film he and his wife watched. & heterosexuality is very much a sexuality
Meanwhile much newer Moana managed to just be about empowerment and even bodily autonomy without any love interest. Her parents were heterosexual and married to each other so their orientation was still there
Another busy day today. I’m gonna be doing 25 minute work sprints all day so if you wanna jump in make your list of things you would like to accomplish (writing, housework, emails, that thing you have been putting off…) and get ready to join me at 9am PT.
I have walked kiddo to school and now I am gonna throw laundry in the dryer and make more coffee before we start. Do whatever gets you pumped
Okay babies. Grab your coffee or whatever beverage and let’s do this 25 minutes in your task without stopping see you at 9:25 PT
I have another overly-packed-with-deadlines day so I am going to be doing more little 25 mins of no interrupted work all day. If you'd like to do this with me, make a list of what you want to accomplish (housework, work outs, writing, reasearch, etc) & get ready to start at 9amPT
In the meantime, let's make some fresh coffee, yeah? Maybe toss in a load of laundry.
Okay, my first 25 mins work stint is going to be maintenance and logistics: answering emails, paying bills, etc. We'll check in at 9:25PT and see what we all got done.
Acknowledging that while I feel extremely behind on everything right now, after a few hours of plowing through on one deadline I will feel better. This week is much too busy, but I will get it all done.
Mommy's Law: If you have a child who spends several days home sick, and in-laws coming into town, every project you were awaiting notes/green lights on will come due at the same time and so will your child's school and extra curricular volunteer duties. Also all press interviews
It’s #InternationalWomensDay so I am going to tell my pay gap story and it is so wild you may have a hard time believing it. It involves money and SPERM and It’s 100% True,no embellishments. & not the worst thing that happened to me at that job, which is the wild part. (Con’t)
so I had this comedy writing job, it was fun and very down and dirty. The first original content for a big streaming platform. I was, for quite some time, the only female on the writing staff. It changed later. Because it was run & gun I also ended up running teleprompter (Con’t)
I was young & eager so I learned how… all the guys then “couldn’t” I got paid nothing extra to do it but oh well I was a real life pro comedy writer! So cool! After a year a new guy got hired who would become one of my dearest friends still to this day. (Con’t)
