🤣 my handwriting was always so bad in these things. I have a clear memory of writing “novel” where I should have said “memoir” in one of these books, and the professor circling it in red with a big NO!!! comment. I thought novel was a fancy word for book.

A big part of our summer reading program promotion is a $5 fine waiver for signing up, like it’s printed on our reading tracker, which I find really sad.

I love Salt Lake City just telling the state to shove it with their anti pride flag legislation. I noticed they had the City building lit up like a rainbow the other day, which is not a cloth flag. 🙃

Ugh! I would like to think these guys take a little more care when discussing national security matters than I do when compiling a work Slack thread, and honestly I take quite a bit of care not to add the wrong people.

I recommended Doctor Odyssey on my family group chat after the first episode because I was so happy to see Pacey and Eliza Hamilton on my screen, but had to take it back around episode three. It's so out there!

I hope you’ll consider coming to Salt Lake City. I was so happy to hear from Bernie in March 2020 right before everything crashed.
