Not me responding to a studentโ€™s statement of โ€œIf youโ€™d read the article I didโ€ฆโ€ in a research paper with a snarky, โ€œCool. Iโ€™ll do that and dip on out of your essay.โ€

My heart is all squeezy feeling tonight. I know why. I know what Iโ€™d like to do about it. But I donโ€™t look good in orange.

Feeling like a badass ATM: walking home from yoga and was charged by an off-leash GSDโ€ฆteeth, growls, barks, the whole bitโ€ฆwith only a little kid to mind himโ€ฆI stood my ground, anxious but unafraid. TWICE. A parent heard the ruckus and took control of the dog. I walked on zen intact.

What a difference 300 miles makes!

Gas in Mobile, AL = $4.09/gallon
Gas in Huntsville, AL = $3.39/gallon

Wild.

Professional conferences often struggle with temperature control - either too warm or too cool.

Knowing this, I packed a light jacket.

And left it on the bed when I left to attend the aforementioned conference.

Sigh.

Wish me luck.

I am exhausted by AI generated text being submitted as a studentโ€™s own work. Whatever happened to integrity? What does this indicate about this studentโ€™s ability to perform ethically in the workplace after graduation? Just stop and do the work for yourself.

CDC gets new acting director as leadership turmoil leaves agency reeling The nationโ€™s top public health agency was left reeling Thursday as the White House worked to expel the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director and replace her with Health Secretary Robert ...

Why should the CDC Director ever align themselves with the President's agenda? SMH. This person should follow the science, the research, the facts. And nothing else. "The White House has only said that Monarez was โ€œnot aligned withโ€ President Donald Trump's agenda."

I RARELY DNF a book but I gave up on one tonight because the author used โ€œthoughโ€ so often I started counting it instead of trying to follow the story.

Why have you dipped out?

Donโ€™t be this person. Parking and blocking the sidewalk with your shin killers is just inconsiderate. Especially when itโ€™s raining and sidewalk walkers have to step out into the mud to go around. Yes, I knowโ€ฆlong trucks and short parking spaces blah blahโ€ฆeven soโ€ฆstill rude.

If youโ€™re having problems which should be addressed by a medical professional, and you are of sound mental capacity to recognize this, and you refuse to seek medical advice but prefer to complain and generally make everyone around you miserableโ€ฆ.

You will receive no sympathy from me.

PSA: if your partner calls the pest control company and asks them to come to the house and โ€œtop upโ€ the pest control stuff because theyโ€™re seeing bugsโ€ฆand TELLS you about the scheduled service well in advanceโ€ฆyou should let them in the house to do what they were called out to do. ๐Ÿคฌ

Missed a few days! D :

Right now I have two novella projects I'm working on alongside TCoA and my Tyler Kyle sequel, so my goals and dreams are getting those finished, haha.

As something more fun, I'd love to see my work used in a course someday or talked about academically

That moment when a reader, after finishing your book, says, โ€œI swear, you wrote my life!โ€ **chefโ€™s kiss**

Funny thing about big opportunitiesโ€ฆthe possible benefits are usually balanced by a similarly sized potential for failure. Luckily, Iโ€™m a pretty good tightrope walker. Metaphorically speakingโ€ฆdonโ€™t put me on a real tightrope. Iโ€™ll fall so fastโ€ฆ

There are times when I need help. But I will almost never ask for it. Tis better to fail on my own than be disappointed.
