Today is a particularly hilarious mix of everything I do. Next is a live radio interview by phone for the Sask-wide not-CBC radio station about auroras, then a Canadian Astronomical Society Board meeting (via Zoom).
Then I need to hit the feed store in the city, and I'll roll into the university award ceremony with a trunk full of chicken feed.

WOW that award thingie was a much bigger deal than I expected. Standing up on a stage and getting a big framed(!!) award in front of a bunch of people is really not something I enjoy (ironically, the award was for being good at standing up in front of people and talking about space!)
I think maybe it was extra exhausting because I'm on sabbatical and mostly working from home, so going from only Zoom people to being on stage in front of lots of real people was Quite A Lot.
