My kiddo is wearing his Mo Salah shirt and sipping cocoa out of my Colorado Avalanche mug, I’m so proud. This is why I had a kid.

I associate the oversized B&W cookies with bakeries based on where we were able to get them as a treat, so I see them as more Italian than Jewish (although they are not really Italian either!).

I thought these were garlic bulbs at first and thought “wow, what a unique toy”!…they are not garlic bulbs 🤣.

The cover of the Vintage International edition of Dispatches, by Michael Kerr. It is a simple book cover with a dark, subtly striped background and the book title in dark yellow font across the top.

Also really excited to dig into the surprise bonus/free book I got when I ordered Pat Barker’s Regeneration Trilogy for a reread after almost 20 years from a small business bookshop I found on insta last year.

I learned about this in my History of Sports Media class [redacted] years ago! Honestly would love to flip to PBS and see a football game in between eps of Bob Ross and NOVA.

My friends who used to make stuffing out of a White Castle crave case for our Friendsgivings would *absolutely* have bought this if we were still 20somethings.

This was part of the plot of a Pushing Daisies episode but Joel McHale‘s character was much more endearing than TB.

I can see needing to verify a credential, but you can ask for a degree verification letter (for free) from most institutions, no need for the full transcript!

In this case, I would say ”for the quails”.

I hate “close up the porch” day at my house. Just under 50 days until the sun stays out longer again!

I love watching the #TCSNYCMarathon, it’s so inspirational for someone who is absolutely not a runner. I miss being able to watch from my fire escape, but watching on TV is fun too.

Having to be awake and actively adult-ing early this morning is really coming back to haunt me now. But it *is* a Saturday, even if my kiddo won’t actually let me get the extra hour of sleep tomorrow morning…

I tried to put a book on hold at the library (I love that the whole state of RI is on the same library system) and apparently I can’t reserve it because it is “out for repairs”. How does a grown adult damage a book so badly it needs to come out of circulation?

Living the youth sports dream, with an 8:30AM game the morning after Halloween 🫠. Kiddo is allowed to wear his vampire teeth until game time.

We got Airheads this year as our non-chocolate option and wow, they are a huge hit! Also saw a toddler dressed like the Blue Power Ranger and gasped, immediately transported back to my childhood.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Yes, them, but also how about some New Pornographers? Have we gotten any Tragically Hip yet?

Why Nickelback though. There have to be other songs to play coming back from commercial during the World Series.

If I have a little bit of money to help, is it better to give now, or to wait a little while until the initial burst of donations starts to run out?

Out sick today but still finished a (very) rough draft of my dissertation *and* remembered to take the stickers off my son’s shirt before putting it in the washing machine.
