Kids Opening Day and my kid is freezing 😂😂

Got to witness my former TA successfully defend her dissertation this morning. This evening I got to catch up with former colleagues… AND another great reminder on why I’m where I am. Today has been a long, but good day.

"There's a room here in the Senate named after Strom Thurmond... I'm here despite his speech, I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people were more powerful." -Cory Booker as he eclipses Thurmond's record for the longest filibuster in US history.

Senator Cory Booker has now broken the record for the longest Senate Floor speech, previously held by Strom Thurmond (24 hours 18 minutes).

It’s so weird how we’re all just working like this is still a normal country.

Sweet Sixteen 💚🤍

My princess sat on the panel with us this weekend… she didn’t talk (this time lol) but apparently told the senior scholar who chaired our session afterwards that she’s “not a scholar yet, but I will be” she continues to be so many things I’m still working towards ❤️

Tonight has been a lot. But at least I get to sleep in a little tomorrow.

I already didn’t really want to make this trip… the fact that our flight has already been delayed four hours really just makes me want to go back home.

This is going to be the longest week ever.
