College tour question. It’s going to be hard to take Kavi during spring break her junior year because our breaks don’t line up. Can we go in summer, or will that be pointless because most schools won’t be in session? (I never did the college tour thing, so this is all foreign to me. We’re […]

I’m wondering if I can crowd-source something here. We’re working on Kavi’s college list, and I’d love to know which schools: a) are in an area with lots of sunshine (cold is okay, but not gloomy) b) have strong reproductive rights c) are decent on pre-med (which she’s currently planning on, but who really knows

Thinking about yesterday’s post about e-learning — I didn’t say this in the original post, but on sleeping on it all and considering the comments in the various parent groups I also posted in, I’ll also note that I suspect many of us (if not all of us) are also dealing with unresolved trauma from

Today was a tough day. I tend not to post much about tough days, because they often involve other people’s personal details that I’m not comfortable sharing. Not my story to tell. But then y’all get a skewed view of my life, so I’ll just say that I’d expected today to be back to regular

Slow, lazy day. Got in late and got to bed after 2 a.m. last night, slept ’til 11, so definitely feeling a big jet-lagged. We had almost nothing scheduled today, except for one interesting thing — we decided to try a consultation with Ashley Heyer Casey, a high school friend of mine who does professional
We split up this Thanksgiving; Kevin took the kids to his parents’ for the holiday, while I attended my cousin’s wedding. A little odd for us, but just made sense logistically this year. They managed to get a nice family photo! (That’s Kevin, Kavi, and Anand on the left.)
Nice family moment yesterday I just wanted to note — Kavi is reading Dubliners in high school, and I mentioned to her that I teach “Araby” out of that, and she was assigned to read that story for today, so when she was doing homework yesterday, she asked if I would read it to her,
The two highlights of WindyCon were toastmastering for the first time (fun!), and getting to spend time with (Alix) AM Dellamonica and Kelly Robson, who are both just delightful. (And, incidentally, married to each other for 33 years so far…) I’ve recently read one of Kelly’s books, _High Times in the Low Parliament (a lesbian

I really just have too much work at the moment — it’s a STUPID amount of work. I hate to say it, but in retrospect, I probably shouldn’t have run for school board, given how much of a time commitment it is to do it (at least the way I do it, with reading the
