This past weekend, my family did and apparently we weren't the only ones…Toy Story 5 just had the biggest opening weekend of 2026… Worldwide, it pulled in $312 million in three days. Thats nostalgic elder millennials out to relive their childhood, taking their kids, inviting their coworkers and pre K friends…

So here's my theory: Toy Story 5 is curing the loneliness pandemic. We spent 90 minutes watching a screen tell us a story about the effects of screens. BUT The movie isn't anti-technology. It’s CONNECTION is still the thing we're all chasing, even when we don't realize it. A scrolling feed full of likes, although it fees like temporary connection, will never replace someone sitting next to you, laughing at the same joke, in the same room, at the same time.

And that's exactly what happened in theaters across the country this weekend. People who hadn't set foot in a theater in years showed up because the story promised something worth showing up for. We didn't just watch Woody and Buzz wrestle with being needed less. We got to be together, fully present, for the first time in a while for some of us.

So thank you, Toy Story 5. Thank you for the record-breaking weekend, the extra butter popcorn, the nostalgia, and mostly thank you for getting us back in a room together.

Recently, I took a day trip to LA for da Bears versus the Chargers, a televised Sunday Night Football game. The significance ran deeper than touchdowns and tackles; it was a reunion with football, family, and a jersey coming out of the archives. Check out the incredible throwback photos too!

I hopped on the plane for LAX midday, ready to catch up with friends and family at SoFi Stadium The last time I caught the Bears and Chargers live was way back in 2015 at Qualcomm Stadium. I rocked this half Bears, half Chargers jersey — the Velcro edition. Fast forward eight years, and this bad boy was dusted off for another game day- sewn tight.

The highlight? Picture this: Uber dropping you off outside the stadium and as your walking through the parking lot you hear cheers, banter, and that unmistakable team spirit in the air. That was the real touchdown moment reuniting with my fam!

It was near game time so we headed in. SoFi Stadium First-timer alert, and guess what? It's now my favorite! The place exudes a different kind of energy, and that screen… wow! Bestfriend and I, of course, had the VIP experience and one too many margs.

The Los Angeles Chargers defeated the Chicago Bears 30-13, but we were the real winners! Born a Bears fan, bred in Bolt country. They will always be my San Diego Super Chargers. So here's to the gridiron, the cheers, and the promise of many more Bears Bolts showdowns.
