About two weeks ago, DC’s mayor, Muriel Bowser, held a series of virtual budget engagement forums to share her draft budget for FY2022. The format her team chose was extremely clever.

This morning I logged on to Google Analytics, and at first glance, it looked like a quarter of the people who usually read my blog read it last month. For a micro-second, I assumed the worst, that I had published a whole month of duds (turns out Analytics was showing me the week view, not the month view). Normally I’m not primed for negativity, but perhaps I jumped to the worst-case-scenario conclusion because I’ve had a rough couple of weeks.
