It is a privilege to have the whiplash kind of weekend I am having. Friday night, wine tasting at a friend’s house. Saturday morning protest at the ICE detention center near my home. Saturday night Moth storytelling event in the city with my sister-in-law. Today getting flu and covid shots.

Today I am doing my full time job, setting up a tv interview for tomorrow for the charity walk I’m co-organizing, taking care of a kid with a 101 degree temp, and texting my family about my dad being in the hospital and his emergency surgery. Also had time this morning to worry about fascism.

I only occasionally exchange texts with an old friend of mine in Mpls, but yesterday she posted 1st day of school photos of her kids at that school in Mpls, and I don’t know if her kids are ok today. It’s not my story but it’s all of our stories and I’m filled with hatred and sadness.

I’m watching Four Seasons on Netflix. When this man tells his male friends he wants to get a divorce, they try to talk him out of it. I cannot think of a single person I would try to talk out of a divorce. I would just say how can I support you.

I drove my 8th grade kid and 2 of her friends to get snacks after their school dance class last night and let them blast Taylor Swift in the car while they sang and told stories about the dance. Parenting is really fun a lot of the time.
