So good!

@debamlen.bsky.social today’s Spelling Bee pangram is a word I think I’ve heard once in my life - hardly worth building a puzzle around

@scalzi.com if I bring this to the Texas Book Festival any chance I can get you to “authorgraph” it?

Voted in a bingo parlor. I did not have that on my bingo card.

Missed my chance to meet @kendylhanks.bsky.social today at a GT event.

touched some grass this weekend

We like eating local when we travel. On this trip so far that means Yoshi Sushi and Professor Java’s Coffee Sanctuary.

@darthbluesky.bsky.social I made a new friend on this day a couple of years ago - in Fredericksburg, TX of all places

Great day to cheer on the USA

ACL loved T-Pain

I was at ACL while my wife was home overseeing our broken AC. We had very different days.

Enjoyed reading the latest novel in @scalzi.com ‘s Old Man’s War series and its theme of carcinization…

Look what just came in the mail @scalzi.com @subpress.bsky.social

When you set realistic career goals…

Dropped off my son at college and took the opportunity to go on a hike in the nearby mountains. I saw a deer, a rabbit, a beaver and a chipmunk - all on the college campus and none in the mountains.

Went on my first underground boat ride

Made my way downtown this weekend to watch Selena - 28(?!) years ago in college I was an intern for Warner Bros. Pictures when the movie came out and helped run the premier in Selena's hometown of Corpus Christi, Texas.

@darthbluesky.bsky.social I’m enjoying the new video quality 🙂

So we moved recently and donated a lot of books and apparently one fell out of the bags so I’ve been driving around with this in my trunk

@whysharksmatter.bsky.social visited the LBJ presidential library and got this shot

@sheaserrano.bsky.social just got my Good Movie email about The Sandlot! If you want to rewatch it on the big screen it’ll be just up the road from you! It’s part of this year’s summer movie series at the Paramount.

@darthbluesky.bsky.social I recently had dinner with Silvio, who runs an Italian restaurant

Both my high school (Elsik) and my kid’s high school (Vandegrift) are in the state soccer finals today!

My son’s robotics team went 19-0 at the Texas championships and is on to the world championships currently ranked #17 in the world!

Today’s the anniversary of when I lost on Jeopardy. Thinking of writing a song about it. @alyankovic.bsky.social little help?

My son's high school robotics team won their tournament and is currently ranked #14 in the world! I'll see y'all at the state championships in Houston in two weeks! Great time to get your company or law firm logo on the robot before we try to make it to the world championships...

It’s that time of year - today is the 24th(?!) anniversary of my first Jeopardy episode!

Trying to remember where I was supposed to meet @sheaserrano.bsky.social

When your new socks are patterned after your favorite mountain…

OTD last year I did not take any pictures of our trip to Antarctica because I was seasick in the cabin as we dealt with 33’ swells in the Drake Passage. 🤢

OTD last year we went kayaking through icebergs and ice sheets only to have them decide to converge on us!

OTD last year I did the polar plunge below the Antarctic Circle wearing nothing but these bad boys

Great night for great comedy!

OTD last year l saw the most fake looking iceberg ever. Seeing it on the horizon it looked like an old Hollywood painted set.

Last night Travis County became Travis country

OTD last year I held an iceberg and saw penguins

@lizzobeeating.bsky.social busted out my Alief hoodie today may have to wear my UH one tomorrow

OTD last year I saw my first iceberg and then…Antarctica

OTD last year I ran into the cloud alien from Nope in Tierra del Fuego

OTD last year in Buenos Aires we went up top in the Palacio Barolo, walked through the Recoleta cemetery and ate so much meat in Puerto Madero.

OTD last year we visited the coolest bookstore in Buenos Aires and I found this.

One of my highlights of the year was getting to see the Monkey Man premiere with a Dev Patel Q & A - if you like John Wick and The Raid you should check it out!

State champs for the first time ever! www.kxan.com/sports-gener...
