Volume 2, Issue 15: A Life Tip from Pre-Teen Patricia

Hi friends! It’s Friday and Fridays mean that I think about this comic from Tiny Snek Comics which is an accurate reflection of my every Friday:

4 panel comic. First panel is snake with the text, “finally, Friday evening. Time for two days to just sit back and-”. The second panel is the snake with a worried look and text all around that says, “groceries, shoppin, cleanin, socializin, sleepin in, poopin, laundry, cookin.” The third panel is the snake looking even more anxious. The final panel is a close-up of the snake looking fully panicked.

Add “readin” and “writin” and “podcastin” in there as well. And “snail mailin.”

In other news, I am officially a full-time work-from-home human for my day job! I’m very excited about it. I am very happy and successful working from home and I am grateful for the privilege. It also means that I get to jump up and have impromptu dance sessions or occasionally give a full musical theatre performance, depending what song comes on my showtunes Pandora station. I know I can listen to full cast albums on Spotify but I like the chaos and emotional rollercoaster of Pandora. One minute I’m doing a time-step to a song from 42nd street and the very next song I’m Eponine dying in Marius’s arms. Never a dull moment in here.
