One of my favorite academic days: Undergraduate Research Day. We had a very robust poster session this morning.

Well done!

The magic isn’t over.

In two weeks will be the 2026 Winter Paralympics in Milano-Cortina, in which you’ll be able to witness exceptional athletes with disabilities do things you’d never be able to do. ✨

Knee injury not improving, so I get to have an MRI. Yay! ☹️

Brilliant film

Your GIF is from my city!

Just a powerful film. Gorgeous cinematography and Jessie Buckley was amazing. Max’s music was wonderful, too.

Today’s cardio brought to you by shoveling 6-8” of snow. Only took 90 minutes.

Fun movie. Great music.

Fuck Microsoft Teams
Fuck my campus tech managed laptop
Fuck this winter storm

Leg rehab continues: 50 minutes walking on the treadmill.

I was interviewed as a finalist for a job, and they declared it a failed search. Apparently I was worse than a second year of stopgap triage.

Thanks, Carly. It’s so good to hear from you.

Treadmill 5k - walk-run-walk. Under 43 minutes. No pain. Progress!!!

Hey Tom you shameless soulless piece of shit, come to the Cities and find me ONE non-Minnesotan, I double dog dare you. Jesus will look you in the eye when you die and say "I never knew you."

Cancel the World Cup and Olympics. No one should be coming here. It’s not safe at all

Exactly that. OKC is preparing for Snowpocalypse 2026. We have these “once-in-a-lifetime” events every 3-5 years now.

2 miles of walking (30:32)
3 minutes of running
All of it PAIN FREE!!

It’s comeback year!!

The back half of that record is very different from the front half. Give it a shot. A sure shot. I’ll see myself out.

I have. It’s not coming anywhere close to me. 😢

Thanks to my “amazing” health insurance through the university, today will be my second and final PT session because I simply cannot afford it. I will have hit 30% of my Flex funds for the calendar year on just these two visits.

Yikes. I hope you get some answers today.

Yes. “Eighteen hundred hours is 6pm in military time.”
