This was a fun spot we filmed in London. You never know what will charge up an interest in engineering!
@anjuansimmons.com knew he was an engineer the second the lights went out fixing a can opener. The test may have failed, but it definitely sparked his curiosity. 😅
Who else learned by blowing a fuse (literally)?

I just used LocalSend (github.com/localsend/lo...) to seamlessly send a file between a MacBook and a Windows laptop. It’s like a cross platform version of AirDrop. I love useful little utilities like this.

Heading to the airport to catch my flight to Manchester, UK (with a short layover in Paris). I’m going to speak at Manchester DevCon, and I haven’t been to England since before the pandemic. I’m really looking forward to this conference!

I'm in Wichita Falls, TX (the city I grew up in) visiting my parents. They've had a rough couple of years dealing with dementia, and I'm thankful for having three siblings to help manage their care. This is a stage of life that isn't talked about enough. It's rough.

Aneika and I had a great trip to Chicago last week! We took an architecture cruise, took in some plays, ate at amazing restaurants, and took in awesome views almost everywhere we looked. On top of that, the weather was extremely cooperative. We really enjoyed the Windy City!

This is the busiest summer travel season I’ve had in years. I was in Chicago last week, and I’m scheduled to go to Washington DC, New York City, Manchester (UK), Boston, and Copenhagen by the end of August.

I was frustrated because I couldn’t find some work gloves I’ve had for almost 30 years.
I then noticed a pair of brand new gloves in the garage that were still in the packaging.
I have to admit I’m quite smitten with them.

Gentle reminder that Mother's Day might bring up mixed emotions for those grieving their maternal figures.
Remember to take a moment to prioritize self-care and devote extra attention to nurturing yourself. 💐

Wow, writing on the Onyx Boox Tab X is a *sumptuous* experience. It’s like writing with a really great pen on high grade paper. So good.

The company I work for has a Learning budget that allows buying devices in the eReader category. Several weeks ago, I put in an order for the Onyx Boox Tab X eInk tablet. It took a while since it was an international order, but it just arrived!

My area had grape sized hail about an hour ago. I ran out to try and cover my son’s car. Ouch.

I have trips to Chicago, Boston, Copenhagen, and Manchester (UK) on the books for this year. It’s a mix of personal and tech conference travel, and I think a few more will hit. I think this will be the first year that feels “normal” to me since 2019.

I’ve used my iPad Pro as a laptop replacement for years, and I always looked forward to tablets becoming more powerful for that use case. However, I’ve recently taken to the idea of tablets as specialized devices: reading, note taking, sketching, etc. Maybe One Tablet to Rule Them All ain’t it?

Getting my oldest sized and also looking for a senior prom outfit. His date is wearing red so we’re looking for a red suit.

I can’t make Day 3 of RailsConf tomorrow because I’m heading back to Houston tonight. However, Days 1 and 2 were really good, and I met up with some Hubbers on my way to the airport!

Hi! I’m a keynote speaker, empathy consultant and stutterer. I teach audiences to improve individual communication and organizational inclusion by making empathy actionable. I love lifting heavy weights, cooking, and reading memoirs about people picking up the pieces in their post menace era 🦹🏽♀️
