Disaster and hazard historian, but I like it all. Climate, hazards, society, and infrastructure. Natural & human made. Always up for talking about cats, books, office supplies, reality tv, true crime, and pop culture. New England Girl always! πŸ’•

This actually explains so much. I hadn’t been to Starbucks in months but got a chai last week and it wasn’t great.

Beau will be sound asleep and if that noise is on the tv, he immediately wakes up.

Once again hoping my team wins but also knowing there’s very little chance that happens. It’s like the Super Bowl all over again.
Excited to see US and Canada play.

People born in the 2000s will never understand a nation once so innocent that an ice skater kneecapping another ice skater sent us into an existential crisis.

I was going to be Samantha but my dad changed his mind after I was born and named me after someone my parents knew.

Got home late last night from a concert. Beau got dinner very early yesterday before I left and didn’t save some of his feed ball for a late night snack.

This morning as he circles my bed singing the song of his people (his Bengal genes really shining), he’s clearly starving.

Well that wasn’t fun.

Jon Bon Jovi is a huge Patriots fan! Bon Jovi, for a while, did a show every summer at Gillette. He tries to be at as many of their games as possible.

Well at least it won’t be a complete embarrassment.

What can you do with a history degree?

Someone is going to write a dissertation about this half time show and I will read it.

Oh come one!! For fucks sake, do something!

This is just embarrassing. Like score something. Anything.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

That I knew. I lived in the Caribbean
for a little over a year when I was younger and loved the sugar cane architectural remnants.

And the history was presented so beautifully.

I thought I was overthinking it but apparently every other weather nerd saw the same thing.

I hope a historian of Puerto Rico breaks down all the symbolism in that halftime show because I am so curious!

Also you can tell I’m a disaster historian because I saw power poles and immediately thought Hurricane Maria. But that can’t be it

Have no idea what is being said but I am LOVING this halftime show. So amazing!!!!

It’s also been confirmed that I did in fact see Cardi B too.

Did I see Pedro Pascal dancing on the porch during Bad Bunny’s halftime show or am I seeing things?

I like the Pepsi commercial. But the Dunkin commercial wins. Nothing will beat the Dunkin commercial.
