Happy about:

Having the opportunity to see Kara Walker’s latest installation, “Katastwof Karavan” at Algiers Point this weekend. Inspired by the history of Algiers Point, where slaves were held after arriving from Africa, Kara Walker built this caravan and installed a working calliope in it. She held performances several times this past week where songs of black liberation were played on the calliope. It sounded kind of like music and kind of like hundreds of terrified humans screaming in agony.

Delighted by:

Oprah surprising Tiffany Haddish on Ellen’s show. Tiffany Haddish is a treasure. “You said that to me in a dream!”

Relieved about:

Being assured that the MOTHERFUCKING SNAKE I found in my garden is not a water moccasin. I was very afraid that it was a water moccasin, but no, it is a non-venomous plain-bellied water snake. If it comes back, I can spray it with a hose to make it go away. In fact I think that the snake and I can live in harmony. But look how fat this snake is! Would you not be alarmed if you walked out on your porch and beheld such a snake?

What’s keeping you going this week? Link it up below or get at me in the comments!
