Just saw a little boy wearing a Bay FC hat and a Valkyries t-shirt. #EveryoneWatchesWomensSports
Itβs the anniversary of when everything shut down for the pandemic in 2020.
Just finished reading We Breed Lions by Rick Westhead. Should be required reading for anyone with even a passing interest in sports in general or hockey in particular. It paints an appalling picture of toxicity in the sport, but ends on a note of hope that change is possible.
For the record, the water in Olympia really is delicious.
Prepping my two-song lessons for Olympia this weekend. Also just got vacation time approved for the Portland in May, so Iβd better brush up on my #doremi and not just my #fasola!

Hey San Diego folks, Iβm gonna be talking with the truly excellent @maggietokudahall.bsky.social next week at the Downtown Central Library. Come join us!
Pro tip to people on dating apps: if someone tells you theyβre looking for a serious relationship, theyβre unlikely to be up for sleeping together on the first date. Grab a clue.
I got to the health center at 7:50 am. All I needed done was some blood work. It is now 10:21 am and there are still three people ahead of me.
Loving a country does not mean cosigning its bullshit.
One thing Iβve learned about dating in middle age is that I have to ask myself, βWould dating this person be better than being alone?β The answer will probably not surprise you.
She Got Game weekend. July 16-19. Las Vegas.

I donβt know about you, but Iβd much rather go to Flavor Flavβs party than to the State of the Union.
It is obscene that people in this country can be taken to collections over an ambulance bill. Or that they get billed for ambulance rides in the first place.
Iβm happy for the US womenβs hockey team. The menβs team can suck it.
Aaaand I got blocked by the person who said the narrative was about one figure skater kneecapping another. Really mature.
New polling says Jasmine Crockett has the best chances to beat Ken Paxton in Texas.
The βshe canβt winβ crowd might want to start updating their talking points because the voters know whatβs up.
Itβs worth noting that 1) Oksana Baiul beat them both anyway, and 2) it was Jeff Gillooly who did the kneecapping.
A skater coming off the ice and saying βTHATβS WHAT IβM FUCKINβ TALKINβ ABOUT!β makes me so happy, given how punishing the ladylike discourse of my youth was when it came to this sport.
Happy Arrest of the Andrew formerly known as Prince Randy to all who celebrate. And as always, thank you feminism.
Thereβs a reason why 193 Huntington is one of my favorite calls. Itβs just so much fun singing βbut oh their end, their dreadful endβ in a major key and twirling around to bring the parts in.
Can we please do away with the expression βon the shelfβ for someone who isnβt in a relationship? Human beings do not have an expiration date.
If youβre feeling bad about yourself today, I just want you to know that for the second time in my life, I have ruined a moka pot by trying to make espresso without adding water first.
RIP Reverend Jackson.
If you do not have any pictures of yourself on your dating profile, I will automatically swipe left.
One of the greatest gifts of my life at this moment is that I have both the means and the time to do things I love with people I care about.
Oh, so itβs okay when a white male figure skater does a backflip, but when Surya Bonaly did it she was a big meanie who hurt Katarina Wittβs fee fees. Cool cool cool.
Farewell, vain Bay, Iβm flying up
To sing from the Sacred Harp.
Seattle beckons me away,
To sing from the Sacred Harp.
