Sunny on the midcoast! Mom and I are adventuring today and tomorrow. Tuesday is surgery day. Then sling life. ❤️‍🩹

At O’Hare for brief layover. There is a Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory right next to my gate. I freaking LOVE caramel apples and it’s the one thing they have that I like. Was so bummed when the one in La Jolla went out of business.

If I was able to eat one I’d be all over it but alas.

Cannot wait for this dental implant stuff to be over and done.

Caramel apples!

#ain’t no way I could manage #but I love them #every fall I try to find caramel apples in my town #it’s harder than it should be

obligatory.

Was a bit annoyed with myself yesterday — I didn’t go for a walk after work because HOT AS BALLS and I was packing, etc. But thanks to configuration of our new airport terminal, I’ve walked at least a mile already this morning!

And once again, thankful for touchless TSA Pre. Otherwise, my walk would have been a sprint and I’m not wearing the shoes for that.

I’ve over packed. Ah, well.

Friday Five

That post going round about 22 year olds marveling at writing 10+ page papers before AI? That’s exactly how we get jackass “experts” attributing the building of the great pyramids to aliens. “That was a huge undertaking! And they didn’t have bulldozers and cranes and dump trucks? Obviously it was aliens!” Makes my brain hurt.

Packing for a two-week trip. Haven’t been gone this long in a while. Trying to go the “less is more” route but it ain’t easy. Also, where I’m going the current weather is a bit like our fall, not super cold but definitely raining or chance of rain for damn near every day of my trip. And I plan on going to the Y as much as possible so one bag is devoted to workout clothes and shoes.

Putting my out of office notification on is always a good feeling, though.

Steak night has been moved up as I leave first thing tomorrow morning.

Today feels like summer.

😘 😘 😘

It’s hot, I’m (over) packing for a two-week trip, doing laundry and sort of paying attention to work emails for another hour.

I feel triggered by this post. And the memory of my English teacher's bright green BULLSHIT stamp, which he used liberally on me when it was warranted. RIP, Jim.

I was an English major, French minor, when the internet was all dial-up. I was staying up all night writing 20-page discourses, translating nonsense back and forth, handing it in at my 8 a.m. "History of the English Language" class, and getting a B or higher.

Most of my upper level courses were night classes. I’d be writing papers day of. “It’s noon — class doesn’t start ‘til 7 pm. I can do this!”

1983

U2 play the Red Rocks amphitheater in Colorado. Despite rain, the concert is intimate and energetic; it is later released as a concert film called Under a Blood Red Sky.
