- Feeling angry
- Feeling happy
- Feeling sad
I Don’t Have Time to Watch the Next Whole Episode of Star Trek Before Resuming My Caregiving Duties: The Kimberly Hirsh Story
It took ibuprofen, me singing a lot of songs, and Rock-A-Bye Baby’s Lullaby Renditions of Queen, but I finally got my freshly vaxxed kid to sleep.
The song “Forever and Ever” from POOH’S GRAND ADVENTURE: THE SEARCH FOR CHRISTOPHER ROBIN has been making me cry for two days and I don’t want to be alone in this, so if you feel like joining me, have a watch/listen.
My kid is getting his first COVID shot tomorrow and I definitely used that as an excuse to buy him a bunch of snacks, a new coloring book, a new book, and a video game for us to play as a family. Y’all, there are Scooby Doo-themed snacks that look like actual Scooby snacks.

It feels really good to talk about my work and be able to remind myself that I’ve done a lot of really cool things and that I am and for 17 years have been a professional, even when I was also a student.
