    I love learning from and talking to other parents. I just don’t like “optional parent activities.”Last summer, IU hosted a two-day, new student orientation. I obediently did the required things, while my daughter, an incoming freshman, went to her sessions. One of the optional activities was to write a letter to your student, to be delivered their first week of school.

    Gratitude is good for your health. No matter what’s happening around you, focusing on what you’re thankful for in this moment can keep you from getting anxious about the past or future. “Gratitude” is the theme of this year’s free Spirit & Place conversation from 4 to 6 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 10, at Visionloft Events at the Stutz. Seating is limited, so RSVP.

    If you’re not a Swiftie (or you are, but you have Ticketmaster resentment), you might want to avoid downtown from Nov. 1-3. That’s when Indy turns into Taylor Town. The “Anti-Hero” singer will pull massive crowds into Lucas Oil Stadium, spike the city with $100 million in economic impact — and very likely remind her fans to vote on Nov. 5. But who are we to fight the alchemy? We’re glad she’s here – and hat’s off to those who scored tickets.

    It’s not even 6 p.m., and some dude dressed as the Grim Reaper nods solemnly as I breeze past him, en route to get my ice cream fix at LiftOff Creamery in Irvington. Two scoops of Graham Central Station in a waffle cup, please. Every year, I look for an unofficial sign that Halloween has arrived in my eastside neighborhood, named after Washington Irving. Irvington has no connection to “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” author, but 150 years ago, the founders thought the area had spooky vibes.

I'm retiring the Marilyn Monroe 30th birthday costume, and instead going as Gladys, the orca who's been leading her pod to attack boats on the Iberian Peninsula. Just need applicants for the pod. See you at Saturday's @IRVHalloween ! https://t.co/2Y1urIfMs5
