Call Me Mello Cello

I've been married to this amazing man for five years. Every day with you is the best day, my love. Here's to a bazillion more.

I'm so incredibly proud of @improvstartrek for winning the Parsec Award for Best Speculative Fiction Comedy/Parody Podcast! #boldlygo

I am fortunate that I can see the Aqua building from my office window. Beyond the beauty and uniqueness of this building, it is a symbol of the progress of women's equality as it was designed by a woman, Jeanne Gang. As one of the few pieces of the Chicago skyline designed by a woman, it is also a reminder that there is still so much to be done to obtain true gender equality. We must keep fighting, conversing and working. #nationalwomensequalityday #feminismmeansequality #feminist #chicagoarchitecture #jeannegong

Every day is a beautiful challenge with this little one. Time flies when you're having fun! #ionawinter #mauradersmap #goldensnitch #isolemnlyswearthatiamuptonogood

Getting back into the swing of things is hard but I have the best teammates ever. It's important to think of it as creating a brand new body and not getting back to the old one. Too much has happened for that to be possible, but that does not mean that the new body can't be even better. It's hard when society often encourages a critical look at the extra weight and extra skin, but it's important to keep it in perspective. That little human is worth all of the hard work in the past, the present and the future.
