frogger, in real time.
once again, i love the advice/warning/humor posted on my local nextdoor page:
‘As anyone may be traveling east on Ann St. and crossing N. Division… be suuuuper careful! In the morning the sun is blazing right into one’s eyes, and equally, throughout the day, there’s tons of traffic, slower paced pedestrians, fast paced bicyclists in a dedicated bike lane and a jog in the road. I even saw a person on a unicycle in a traffic lane yesterday! It is one hellacious level of “Frogger”! 🐸🚗”

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
La Liga, of the the Spanish soccerleague has linked up with the biggest name in the sport. Or, more accurately, the longest name: Welsh team Clwb Pêl Droed Llanfairpwllgw”yngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Football Club.
The team, based in North Wales and more commonly known as CPD Llanfairpwll FC, is set to be sponsored by LaLiga throughout the current season.
The league’s “LL” logo will appear on the front of Llanfairpwll’s jerseys, which also bear the town’s full, 58-letter name on the club crest.
“This really is an outstanding partnership for us,” Samantha Jones-Smith, the club’s chairwoman. “Not only is it the most exciting collaboration the club has ever had, but it also allows us to improve both on and off the field.”
“We’ve got a great group here who are really committed to bringing success to the club,” said manager Gwydaf Hughes. “This new partnership with LaLiga brings further professionalism to our side, and I know the lads can’t wait to wear the new kit with pride from this Saturday and throughout the season.”
The coastal village, located on island of Anglesey, is said to have the longest town name in Europe. It’s not the original name, but was devised in the nineteenth century by a local cobbler as a way to attract tourists to the area.

after having such a wonderful time celebrating with family
it’s nice to be home
even if
i did have a late night
and an early morning flight to get here
but i’m still standing.
kind of.

ride along.
stopping for an oil change
on my way home from school
the tech went to open my hood
pausing to tell me
i had a ‘little friend’ traveling along with me
a praying mantis
who had hunkered down and hung on just below my windshield
he very carefully opened the hood
the mantis hopped up on the windshield wiper
hung out while my oil was changed
just taking it all in
other people came over to check him out
still he held his ground
the tech carefully closed the hood when finished
trying to very gently coax the mantis to go back to his safe spot
before i drove off
but the mantis would not be deterred
hung on as i drove to the book store
then i drove toward home
with my very special hood ornament
my ride along
even still hanging on
gone when i got home
perhaps he hopped off
stopping to visit a town along the way
i hope it was the adventure of a lifetime.
