I travel pretty frequently for work and for fun and in my opinion the best big airport in the US is DTW (Detroit) and the best smaller airport is CMH (Columbus). Not just saying that because they’re my “home” airports!

From @theathletic.com: Pudge the Cat, a smoosh-faced exotic shorthair with the scowl of a grumpy coordinator, has become catnip to college football fans. Beyond his cuteness, Pudge also gave support to his owner during a very tough time. nyti.ms/46WVxXt
I’m choosing to believe that the Blackhawks did me that favor last night to make amends for their fan who dumped beer down my back at a game at the United Center when I was in undergrad (yes, many years ago).

Our entire household has gone down with test-confirmed flu in the past 48 hours (yes, we’re all vaccinated, so I know it could be much worse if we weren’t). It sucks.

Hockey!!! So much better of an ending to 2024 than last year. This year, the Jackets win in a shootout. Last year, I was less than 24 hours from an emergency appendectomy.

There are many benefits to living in a college town. A drawback, though, is taking your 14yo to urgent care and having her diagnosed with what the local docs are calling “frat boy flu.” (Not a euphemism for like an STI or a hangover — just a nasty virus that originated on campus).
