So beyond thrilled by Chappell's Grammy win (and also her representing strongly the MO 417 area!) My little tribute to her from last year of D&D Classes if they were Chappell Roan songs for y'all! www.canva.com/design/DAGQq...

My Lyft driver was talking about how people lie and how he used to lie when younger (started about how my profile photo matched my face but "girls'" don't) which got rather awkward for him when he realized he was dropping me off at the New York Annual Conference office 🤣
