Hiked the Miller’s Head Trail in Shenandoah National Park today. Made the family come, too. We stopped about .05 miles from the end because it sounded like there were a lot of bees around the bend, but it was beautiful out. The ravens were noisy!

Watching INTERSTELLAR yet again! Because it is the best.

I think I might try and get into hiking this year.

I wanted to find a cool new jacket. So I did! But there was a waiting list. But today I got a text that it was back in stock! But they won’t ship it until the end of March.

But! I will have a cool new jacket at the end of March!

Two Oscar nominations. ❤️

Watching episode 1 of Lost Monster Files on Netflix, and they are visiting a guy in the Blue Ridge Mountains whose pig allegedly got attacked by a Chupacabra or something, and I tell you that guy has the strongest Pittsburgh accent I have ever heard outside of a Myron Cope broadcast.

Judges all getting salty on Friday afternoon. Something in the water?

At least the fundraising texts have stopped.

Next (arguably?) cryptid pin from Comic Con - a poltergeist.

The spouse got us all tickets for the Godzilla 2000 showing in the theater on Godzilla Day (Nov. 1)!

Spouse and kid went to NY Comic-con and brought me back some cryptid pins! First up, Mothman!

The Harvard Extension School has a course about sea monsters! Very sad I am not enrolled.

Cryptid alert! This drawing of the Jersey Devil from the Philadelphia Bulletin from 1909 is in the public domain, so I had it put on a Yeti.

Can’t believe autocorrect changed “Gul Dukat” to “Gul adulation”. What the heck?

Happy Bruce Springsteen Day, everyone!

What could be more comforting to a pathologically anxious parent than the fact that seemingly every single article on the subject talks about how anxious parents pass anxiety on to their children?

Me, a lawyer, preparing to raise the issue of the use of Oxford commas with the rest of my team.
