I guess it hurts so much because this is literally the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do with my life. Additionally, so many family members actively chose this. I have….thoughts.

Here I am at 2 years old.

And he went around the room and greeted each JSC employee personally. He shook everyone’s hand and said, “Hi! I’m Stephen Colbert!”

A lot of us had brought items for him to sign, but because his flight had been delayed and he showed up late, we were told to put our names on a list.

There was a Shuttle launch that I worked on console…STS-133 maybe?

Anyway, Stephen Colbert was at JSC to tape a bit for his show. And after the launch I went to the building he was in. After taking a nap in the car, he showed up in an orange ACES suit. That’s me with the sunglasses on my head.

I was at the Guadalupe River when flash floods hit in 2007. We were on an island in the river when it started to rise. We’re both experienced swimmers/Scuba divers. The water came up so fast…it was terrifying. Here’s some video; we were stranded for a couple days but thankfully everyone was ok.

A mother raccoon and her 4 babies showed up in our neighborhood and everyone started feeding them.

Now if we’re sitting outside, they will sneak up on us and tap us on the shoulder like “Hey! I’m here! Time for dinner!”

It’s absolutely adorable. 🦝

Sorry you’re so insecure but this stuff still happened. You could try doing something worthwhile too if you wanted.🚀

I just had the most amazing night. We are in Reykjavik, Iceland chasing my dream of seeing the Northern Lights for the 2nd time - first time in Alaska there was too much cloud cover. I was crying, lights were dancing, it was truly magical. 🧪🛰️🚀👩🏻‍🔬🔭
