You know the funniest thing just happened. A big old rainbow cover the sky up in downtown Orlando near my place. I got this feeling. Do whatever you want to the crosswalks. We’re still here. 💕

Tuesday was my first teaching day of the semester, and Jimmy Buffett’s “Volcano” was stuck in my head the whole day. That seems foreboding in a way I can’t quite put my finger on.

After a solid 15 years of having a recurring nightmare about signing up for a college class, not knowing I was enrolled, and then getting an F, I have now unlocked the teacher version. It’s similar, where you somehow don’t find out that you’ve been assigned a class until the term is over. 😵💫😮💨

Occasionally I will do things like run around SeaWorld for a shiny metal. The armadillo definitely wanted to know why so many people were running through his house.

And if you haven't read this shattering ProPublica piece about the effects of Covid on pregnancies, you should take a deep breath and do so:
“God, No, Not Another Case.” COVID-Related Stillbirths Didn’t Have to Happen.
