@DresdenDolls @colonywdstk Didn’t get the email 🤦🏼‍♀️

I only saw your comment come up and already knew what this was regarding. What a time to be alive ….

2020: Global pandemic + child develops near crippling anxiety disorder. 2021: All of above + you have to get a protective order against the person you’ve been dating/married to since 2004. So you know fuck me for not being super excited for 2022. #thingsicantsayonfacebook

@tcquarterly I will do arguing with numbers.

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

@AgataBoxe Yup. Trader Joe’s is actually a vacation for me because it’s not that close. But I often break to Aldi or Target lol.

@creekthinker My daughter goes back Tuesday (I’m excited and nervous) and will also be rocking an avacado backpack!

My baby graduated (virtual) kindergarten today. I put her in my doctoral tam since she couldn't be a part of the real thing back in 2018. My heart is full today.

@PintsNCupcakes @BrianOliu They also never have this delicious espresso drink :(

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

@donniejsackey Right!! We’re all just trying to survive a pandemic while working without childcare. We don’t need another thing to feel bad about!

Is 2 margaritas + 2 tequila shots at lunch supposed to be weird if you’re the mom? I’m not driving so whatever.

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

My 6 year old guilted her vaccine-hesitant grandparents into getting the covid shot! Maybe we should be exploring this tactic in more detail?

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

Thank you @NYGovCuomo and #SUNY for doing the right thing to keep us safe. Excited to be back on campus on the fall!

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

Well it finally happened: a man told me to smile while I was WEARING A MASK.

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

@StollNews Well, it was a nice hour or however long it's been. Unreal.

JUST IN: Girl, reportedly 15-years-old, dies after being shot by police in Columbus, Ohio

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

@ADubisar They sure do! We still have a trip there on hold from April 2020 ... one day!

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

Two more months of virtual Kindergarten while working full time. I want a damn trophy when this is over.

One of my students via the midterm dicussion board (he doesn't even know how much he made my day): "This class feels like a boot-camp in training future tech writiers to use their power for good."

[Dr. Shannon N. Fanning @SFanningISU]

My 5 yr old is waiting for grandma to play a game other phone and just said "I'm in the lobby waiting to join." The year of Zoom school has already been too long, ya'll.
