Award-winning pumpkin from the kid's 2nd grade class. Overhead them telling people, "The Cowboys are STILL boiling!" while we were out trick-or-treating. #gobirds
A pumpkin painted black with orange flames coming up from the bottom. It's filled with blue and silver Styrofoam bubbles, blue and silver legs, and a blue helmet with a silver star. Next to the cauldron pumpkin is an eagle with a witches hat. In front of the cauldron pumpkin is a tablet with a log on fire video. The tablet was playing the Eagles fight song.

Shots acquired! CVS in Center City, insurance covered COVID-19 and flu. I checked eligible for COVID-19 shot when I made the appointment yesterday, no follow up Qs at the appointment. Still waiting on pediatrician to give the go ahead for my 7yo...
My upper arm in the bathroom mirror. The sleeve of my black shirt is rolled up to show my bandaid from getting COVID-19 and flu shots today.

Action shot talking healthcare funding with Trevor and Evie from Rep Madeline Dean's office #aapmadvocacy
Three people talking in an office. A man is sitting in a chair, and two women are sitting on a couch facing him. One of the women has an adorable black Chihuahua in a pink harness on her lap, Evie. Evie is looking at the camera and is a very good dog.

We're Doing Our Part!
Bringing those Philly lantern fly squashing skills to DC for #AAPM2025

Best believe we're still bejeweled! Planning to win the swag battle at the Residency Fair at #AAPM2025
My arms, covered in beaded bracelets, leaning on a white table with more bead supplies in the background. The bracelets are Taylor Swift Eras Tour-inspired, with a Radiation Therapy twist. I'm so proud of my bracelet puns! Examples: Down Bad Crying At The Sim, I Can Do It With A Broken Cart, and TG <3 51

Fletcher Cox looking over the #StandUpForScience rally in Philly today. Felt good to be surrounded by people who are scared of the same things I'm scared of, ready to work together to stop scary things.
Picture of blurred people in a crowd, with a statue of a person on a horse in the distance. The statue is wearing a green Fletcher Cox Eagles jersey like a cape. Go birds

A screenshot of an Inquirer article about Philly Super Bowl bets, which features a picture of two children laying on a carpet holding books. My kid is looking over at the book her friend is reading. Why read one book when you can read two? Her school is in a reading competition with a school in KC. Go birds

Child was bugging husband while he removed bike tire for tube change. Child was frustrated she might forget questions if she waited until he finished. I suggested she write down her questions to talk about later. 10/10 activity, thumbs up all around, peace in our time, great use of parentheticals.
White paper on wood table, child's handwriting in pencil. answer these: prize 1#. Why are you twisting it so much? (wrench) 2# is it big or small? (wrench) 3# how does it (e-bike) balance? Each hashtag has one more set of lines than the one above it because, you know, counting.

Some real bangers in here. Careful! to all the Goatees, Horseshoes, and Villains out there
Facial Hairstyles and Filtering Facepiece Respirators flyer from the CDC with 4 rows of cartoon white man faces with varying facial hair. Each style has a name and a green check or red x to indicate if it is compatible with masking. Some of the names are wild.

South Philly bonus fridge
A foyer with a gray, white, and black tile floor and a black door with a window in it. There's a pan of cookie bars cooling on the time floor because this area is not insulated. Brrrrr

For an MR physicist, a terrifying and beautiful site.
A hallway with 5 100L liquid helium dewars in it. It is terrifying because these only show up when your magnet is proper fucked. It is beautiful because my magnet was proper fucked and now it can start getting fixed.

Just a couple of Faks
Two people standing in a street wearing "Matter of Fak" t-shirts from the Bear. One has a lot of fake tattoos and a backwards hat, the other has a goatee and a big fake diamond earring.
