"He slept that night in his own country and he had a dream wherein he saw God's pilgrims laboring upon a darkened verge in the last of the twilight of that day and they seemed to be returning from some deep enterprise that was not of war nor were they yet in flight but rather seemed coming from some labor to which perhaps these and all other things stood subjugate."
The Crossing, Cormac McCarthy

Well, I have a 2-year-old boy. My second boy’s name is Abel. And we (Amy and Nick Offerman) talk about making the Abel Table. You know what he has made me? He has made me happy and fulfilled and all those things. But he hasn’t made me a piece of furniture yet because I feel like he and I both are the crazy sentimentalists on the show. Nick and I could cry every day, all day about how lucky we are. We put too much import on everything. So I think we’re probably waiting for, like, the perfect table. So I should probably just have him, like, quickly make me a bench and just get it over with

WE ARE ALL LESLIE KNOPE.

Two finals today. Let’s do this and then pass out.

GPOY. I think I might be sick. Or just extremely burnt out. I can’t decide. But it involves needing apparently more than 12 hours of sleep, feeling faint and mildly nauseous, and alternating between being overheated and chilly. However, in true Kathryn fashion, I am not actually throwing up, nor do I have a really impressive fever,  which means I will still have to do exactly the same amount of work, just less efficiently.

This was commissioned by Nick Offerman (and others), as a wrap gift for the entire cast & crew at Parks & Recreation. Really happy with how it came out, and stoked to be doing more work for those guys, I love um! 

So so fantastically awesome!

Why am I just now noticing the Batman pin?

Get out.

Rob Lowe looks like a hustler. I mean like a gay kid on the street hustler. Amazing.

As a first-time Golden Globes watcher, I ….. don’t know what’s going on.

Let it be known that tonight marks the greatest moment in television history: Leslie Knope saying, “Clear eyes. Full hearts. Can’t Lose.”

I loved it because it’s a perfect fit. Parks and Recreation has become the closest substitute for Friday Night Lights because it’s got such a damn big heart and it shows us, every week really, that disappointments and compromise happen but that people can continue to be wonderful, hopeful, heartbreakingly good things.

leslie: this is how i feel, how do you feel?

Guys….here is how I feel. I feel like I haven’t shipped anything so hard and with apparently like all of my gut since I was in high school shipping stuff like Veronica/Logan. And my level of involvement in this even surpasses that shit. 

And anyway, I don’t want to hear anyone say that this is out of character for Leslie. There’s this fucking catch-22 for strong motivated women, which is that if they ever do decide that being with someone is more important than a career decision, they get treated as though they have thrown away all of their strength and capability. Which - no. Think of how lonely Leslie must have kind of felt her whole life before Ben Wyatt, who also loves model U.N.’s and Eleanor Roosevelt roleplay and even Pawnee. I just - I CAN’T EVEN YOU GUYS. LOOK AT ADAM SCOTT’S FACE WHEN HE MOVES TOWARD HER I’M DYING.

Also me watching Parks and Recreation when they weren’t together and were fighting could accurately be described as “I’m a mess without you. I miss being with you - I miss being near you…” Just call me Champ.

So in other words, I’m a mess, and I have an Adam Scott problem. Interview on Saturday. blurgh.

Offerman Woodshop

Nick Offerman, aka Ron Swanson, has an actual woodshop, where he and his team create handmade, old-world style furniture and other wood products. They just released hand-carved, limited edition, mustache combs. EPIC!

NO. NO. NO. NO. I thought my shipping days were over, guys, but NO. I was throwing things around last night.

When I’m trying to explain the wonder that is Leslie Knope to nonbelievers, I often find myself at a loss for words. But not anymore. Henceforth and forevermore, Leslie Knope is a woman so flawless that she made Batman cry.
