A Great Evening Working with the Center for Coastal, Climate, & Marine Studies Advisory Board with a Woman's Basketball Game

Another highlight of Thursday, however, was seeing the 2025 MAAC Volleyball Championship Team being recognized by the big screen at half-time of the Women's basketball team blowout over Marist. The Advisory Board was treated to a dinner in the Diffley Room before hand and I also ran into Donna Delbasso, Hill Central/Kwame Alexander collaborations, whose daughter, Casey, is the Stags ESPN announcer (she also works for Good Morning America and got married two weeks ago).

I am face-to-face with another day of no scheduled meetings, so I am going at the freedom to get actual work done. The registrations for summer programs are rolling in and I need to catch up with those, as well as editing a few writing projects. 

I am thinking ahead to Sunday's Run for Refugees 5K and the below zero windchill they're predicting. That will be Super Bowl Sunday for me. A cold one.

I'm also laughing at a dream I had. In my dream, Lori Loughlin, from Full House, heard my littler sister was eating with friends at the Clam Bar. The actress was working with a family in Poughkeepsie…a non - profit, and they needed someone who knew sign language to support their work. She drove all the way to Syracuse because she heard Casey was at the Clam Bar.

It was very random. I never even watched Full House and had to look up the actress the next morning. There were also Labrador retrievers laying everywhere and when the performer got to the Clam Bar Casey was smoking a cigarette out the window with Bonnie Stolz (trying not to get caught). My mom was sitting backwards in a booth with her legs criss-crossed working on her iPad. It was very detailed and usually I have meanings I can make from such dream…but this one threw me upside down. 

I sort of hope I can have more information in a follow-up dream, because it was detailed and I want to know what my subconscious is telling me. 

Ah, but it's Friday. Carry on. It's all good.
