if we get a dog, can it be as cute as this one?

more cuteness

interesting. The idea that you can basically tell yourself something different ("I'm excited!" instead of "I'm nervous") and it will become your reality. It all blows my mind. 

i'm going to try this to prepare for a megaformer class.

I thought this was quite lovely

we can win our getting up early challenge by torturing ourselves

1. So long as the U.S. women's team is good, people will watch. but i don't know if that's true fandom. you need people to watch even when you're bad - otherwise a lot of stadiums will be empty.

2. I read all that coverage. Ate it up. Mostly because the initial report had so little information. I did read another article saying it was a conspiracy that stories like this and the girl that got shot by a five-times-deported illegal immigrant in San Francisco aren't getting the attention they should because they don't fit the liberal narrative. I don't know if that's true. But young gay man stabbed to death in broad daylight among dozens of people on metro on July 4 in the nation's capital probably was the kind of story that interested me.

3. preaching to the choir. they always talk about fancy dorm rooms and amenities and professors with low workload but i wonder where the money actually goes. I mean, if you have 5,000 students paying 20,000 a year, you get $100,000,000/year. does it mostly go back to the endowment? to research grants? how many admin professionals can you buy with that money? how many stadiums? (well, not that many but that money usually comes from athletics and you don't have to buy a stadium every year). just seems like a lot of money left on the table but maybe that makes sense because the university doesn't have to spend everything it makes. (though if it saved a ton of money, maybe people would find out and rebel?)

5. I'm not sure I believe in using the preserves so we'll have to have an adventure to find out!

6. even though I'm a lawyer type, I don't know why, I couldn't get myself to read this. maybe some other time? maybe in paper form?

7. that medical technician makes no sense. i assume she had some demons of her own she was dealing with. that's the kind of thing you can only say to hitler's mom, not some mom of a kid who's great but sick.

5. Well I got 2 different personality types after taking the test twice so I must be....an ENFP!

6. That would be our coolest friend.

10. I got nothing. Why has anyone been to Bhutan?

11. Safe haven from the nasty quotes on Facebook. Then again, people can still write things on Instagram so it's a wash.

5. What is hoarding acceptances?
