Weekend coffee #175.
A bit of personal news to kick us off for today. Well, let’s be honest, it’s a straight-up brag. But given the hard work I put in over an extended period of time, I’m going for it. Last weekend I was able to compete for the second time ever and came home with two medals, including one for the best woman lifter. Not going to lie, it felt damn good. I’m not sure I’ve ever actually won anything before so this was a first and completely unexpected. Hence the cheesy, tequila-fueled photo of me at the bar after the meet, celebrating my win. Now, onto our regularly scheduled programming:
My latest for RecruitingDaily - Work From Home and the Impact on Parenting.
Pre-orders are up for Mister Face Records’ 2021 charity t-shirt (so much shameless self-promotion).
Belgian Farmer Accidentally Redraws Country’s Border By Moving Stone Blocking His Tractor
Why researchers think Covid-19 deaths may be more than double the official total
I Changed My Name When I Got Married, & I’ve Felt Weird About It Ever Since
Here are NYC’s 2021 Michelin-starred restaurants - intrigued by the newly all-vegan Eleven Madison Park
Twisty cinnamon buns. Yes, please (clearly have food on the brain now that I’m done with meet prep).
Reading: magazines! Super enjoy the feeling of paging through.
Watching: very little TV, which is probably a good thing, to be honest.
Taking a break next week because I’ll be on vacation. Insert screaming with excitement emoji face here. My first legitimate break in 14 months. So that’s all for now. Until next time - thanks for following along and be well.
