Women in history
Apr. 1st, 2025 11:32 pmI was one day late with my talk for hitting women's history month but my talk went well.
No one knew it but I dressed up in my 1890s walking dress complete with petticoat pretenders, a corset, my gladstone bag and hat I made (because restrictive clothing being a reason women can't be doctors was in my speech) and I strolled in expecting 4 students I bribed with extra credit and my science coworkers.
Instead I walked in and the place is packed! Nursing is there. Other faculty are there. My friend who retired drove all the way from 45 miles away to be there. Another retired friend canceled an appointment to come (I expected him), my friend (one of those nano ones I mentioned) and her daughter showed up all the way from Marietta (about 90 miles), two former students showed up and there were students I didn't even know there (I assume someone else bribed them).
I did it in a little over an hour (with a few political jabs I'm SURE my family will bitch about when they get the link but they were earned). I got no questions but so much applause.
My friend and her daughter and I went to Bob Evans for dinner (my treat because they came all that way and brought me a cannolo because they know how to make my Italian heart sing) We haven't seen each other in a while, talked about 2 hours (sorry poor Waitress)
I will fandom Tuesday tomorrow. Instead have a happy birthday story for Angel Dust
Title: Ephemeral
Fandom: Hazbin Hotel
Summary: It’s Angel’s birthday and he’s throwing himself a proper Italian birthday celebration with his new family.
