Today is Fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras. The Tuesday before Ash Wednesday & start of Lent. The origins of Mardi Gras link back to pagan celebrations of the arrival of spring and fertility. This day is celebrated with parades & feasts before the start of the fasting season of Lent https://t.co/KrbTfxODIx

Met a staffer at the Combine whose son lives in New Orleans. We started talking about Mardi Gras. She looks at me and goes “You look tired.” We both started laughing. Bunch of New Orleanians walking into work today like this: https://t.co/p30e1YOLPn

Funeral service for mom today. Weather perfectly matched her temperament: peaceful and calm and sunny. Occurred to us at some point that it’s Mardi Gras day. No jazz or parades, but we did end the service with Allison Kraus and Gillian Welch’s rousing version of “I’ll Fly Away.”
