kinda hate how melee has this beautiful mod that lets you instantly queue into another melee player within seconds of booting up and its just unusable bc 90% of the ppl who use it are just aliens trying to run experiments on how the human mind responds to negative stimuli

It’s hard to pull myself away from work sometimes but I’m grateful to be able to celebrate such huge life milestones with my folx this year. April = Dad’s 85th birthday, June = parents’ 55th anniversary, September = Mom’s 80th birthday. What a year! ❤️

Well if this doesn’t put you into the holiday spirit. Meet my dog, Lady, a senior Yorkie mix. She’s an absolute doll. 🥰

@DrPhilCovington Thanks so much!

[Heather French @HeatherAFrench]

Let’s talk succession and transition planning for you and your team. Do you have good resources, models, practices, or lessons learned that you can share? Is there a specific person, higher ed institution or another industry you have seen do this well? Let me know!

[Heather French @HeatherAFrench]
