Me: the game looks cold.
Pete: at least it’s not raining.
Me: it never rains at Autzen Stadium.

Oh, I see I got home just in time to watch the Craig Kimbrel nausea roller coaster.

One reason I love talking about this stuff is that I get to promote kindness in the world. I’m so lucky to do this job.

I talked to the delightful Top of Mind about adapting to unfamiliar accents and other things: byuradio.org/939e2942-1ad2-…

I also forgot that cheering for the Phillies means I also booked a ticket for the Craig Kimbrel rollercoaster of nausea and anxiety, which I have lots of familiarity with as a Red Sox and Cubs fan.

To be clear. I am on the Phillies bandwagon but refrain from cheering for Bryce Harper.

I am fully on the Phillies bandwagon this fall (thanks to the delight that is a happy baseball Ellen Adair) and Rhys Hoskins throwing out the first pitch to Schwarbs qualifies for my first cry of the postseason.

A replay of a fun Connecticut Public The Colin McEnroe Show episode from earlier in the year, with Emily Brewster, Melissa Baese-Berk, and me speaking about misspeaking.

Pete Crow-Armstrong just made the best catch I’ve ever seen. I love baseball.

You can take the girl out of Oregon but you can’t take the “screaming at Oregon football super late at night while the baby is asleep” out of the girl.

Part of the reason this team is so fun to watch is their success was not expected this season. (Also the STL line here is a delight for Cubs fans)

Another day, another weird internet thing I can't access as a faculty member because I took one class here when I was a grad student.

I’m 15 pages into “Crying in H Mart” and already crying at the descriptions of Eugene.
