The sky reflected in a puddle on my back patio, 9-30-26.

If you’re wondering how global warming is affecting where I live.
DFW continues its streak of 90-plus-degree days.

Fourth of July family vacation to the Hill Country on the outskirts of Austin was a blast.

Strange moment today. I was at the graveside service for my sister-in-law’s mother and we noticed that Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul Abbott of Pantera fame are buried in the same part of the cemetery. RIP, Sandy, hope you don’t mind a little metal! 🤘🎸

There’s a “What were you like in the ‘90s?” meme going around the Internet. Welp. This was me.

If ever there was a perfect day for a 9-mile run, this was it. I know I look like a walking TCU billboard. I’m a football season ticket holder, I have two master’s from there, and I used to be news editor of the alum magazine. But the real reason is everyone in my family buys me TCU gear every XMas.

@msalwayswright.bsky.social and I voted and we saw a great student anti-ICE protest by local high school students. There were some pearl clutches out there whining about the protest, but the cops calmly stood by observing. All was peaceful.

@robwords.bsky.social @jesszafarris.bsky.social it took Rob longer to blush in this episode than I would’ve expected. I am watching/listening while at work. Thankfully, my headphones are plugged into my laptop.

The pecans are raining down from these trees at my local park. What a great mild afternoon after a rainy and cool morning.

Took an extra day off to extend Labor Day weekend. It was nice getting in a morning jog in the park on a mild and overcast day that felt like early fall.

This is my third great grandfather, George W. Wright, who served in the Union Army out of Iowa. This is my way of saying the Confederacy belongs in the trash bin of history.

At a French-style cafe near Austin on a rainy Fourth. The rain feels right given my feelings about this nation. I’m descended from Revolutionary War patriots through my Grandma Frances “Sundie” Sunderland Wright’s line. This Trumpian autocracy isn’t the America they envisioned.
