This is good snow

I am so proud of this

I am so honored that I got to be a part of junkyard! Such an exciting idea to encourage hacking for the sake of hacking and revel in the fun and curiosity. Being a judge went by so fast! But I am happy I got to be on stage with my friends and that I was trusted to adjudicate such awesome research.

So excited for junkyard!

See everyone there!

Reminder

My beloved ADHD partner has set an alarm to tell them to go to bed at 11pm.

Its Bernadette Peters singing "I got the sun in the morning."

An 11 o'clock number.

We do a great production at this point.
