Going to do some reading. Cozy hot chocolate with whipped cream and unicorn sprinkles.

Landing in Baltimore for my last leg of my trip home. The sunset view from the plane was gorgeous. Also check out the safety measure on the Curtis "Pusher" plane of 1911, like one flown by Blanche Stuart of Rochester, NY. I'm just thinking about this being one of the most scary roller coasters...

Final show of tech and opening of this National Tour of The Wiz. This show is beautiful. There are so many wonderful textures, color, and heart put into this production.

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

Upright two of cups eh? Found this mini two of hearts on the ground while getting gas for my car today.

I just love playing cards.
