you ever think about how pretty much the only reason we use base10 is because we have 10 fingers and if everyone had 6 fingers on each hand we'd use base12 and never even think a thing of it and also math would be pretty much better in every way?

Something fun about the Bat Family I love thinking about: five of the members have their birthday in the same month.

Damian - August 9

Stephanie - August 11

Duke - August 13

Alfred - August 16

Jason - August 16

And yes, Alfred and Jason have their birthdays on the same day. What’s August like for the Bat Family?

The Blessing of Two

There’s something divine about the number two. Just ask Noah, who mastered the art of the double as he herded every creature two by two onto that ark. And then, there’s Solomon who wisely penned, “Two are better than one” (Ecclesiastes 4:9). God must have known how much my life needed a double portion of love when He blessed me with not just one, but two incredible girls, born 30 years apart on…

Had Ethiopian, finished One Piece and I have no idea what is happening in life

Yes, the plan is now to leave in 1.5 years, but so much happens on a weekly basis now, I have no idea what life has in store

9/16/2023

We went to Selam today and had wonderful Ethiopian food, then finished up with some boba from Uptown.

We discussed how the remaining time in Chicago will total to around 3 years, which is the same amount of time we were in 300, and Aprille was in 320.

With the absolutely insane amount of stuff that has happened in the last 1.5 years, I have no idea how slow/quick the next 1.5 years will pass. I’m excited, yes, but I am also just 🤯 because the remaining time could have in store some insane changes.

We finished the live action One Piece (truly a fun show) and it’s the first live action adaptation that I want to see more of. I think the manga/anime was kooky from jump which is why the live action works so well – most other live actions take theme selves too seriously and end up being cringy.

Part of the appeal of the show is the idea of finding your family and exploring the world together with them. We talked about its parallel with Eden of the East and ATLA, among others, in exploring this theme of family.

It’s not at all a blocking issue, but I do think it would be incredible to meet some more of our family before we completely untether. Maybe we’ll meet them out in the world after we untether, too. I’m open to it all – I think we just want to meet them and enjoy that experience.

The sign we saw waiting for the red line. “Anything is Possible” and “Join our family” as we were talking about our desire to meet the rest of our family

On the walk from Wilson to Argyle, saw these 4 hanging out. Similar to the mugs Aprille called out in Target last year – it looks like it could be our would-be family. At the last second, all 4 turned to look down at me for the last photo on the right.
