Here‘s a #shadow at the ballpark, which is my #happyplace.

This man had a way with words! Just what you‘d expect from a comparative literature professor. At one point he even mentions Odysseus!

This fulfills a prompt for the #Booked2019 challenge. Last year I stumbled towards the end when I waited too long to start some of the books, so this year I‘m going to “front load” those books and happily cross tasks with #ReadHarder.

1. A cappella singers performing at LOC as part of the Baseball Americana exhibit.
2. Read 75 books.
3. Best: Women‘s Weekend in Williamsburg. Worst: so much crappy news in the world.
4. Several small goals that add up to getting sh*t done.
5. Started it at lunchtime.
