Weekly Roundup: 80s Mall Murder Madness, the Paralympic Games, and Parenting Job Descriptions

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

Catherine's library find is a reminder that libraries are far more than just books. You can also check out an '80s-themed murder mystery game set in a shopping mall! Mentioned: "Let's Go to the Mall" from How I Met Your Mother.
​
Terri's random recommendation is a reminder that sporting events in Paris are not over for the year. You can still watch the Paralympic Games, and you should! Here's how and where to watch, and an extensive list of relevant social media accounts to follow. Mentioned: Stephen Nedoroscik, aka Pommel Horse Guy, will compete on the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars. It starts September 17, and we'll be watching. Also mentioned: DWTS winner Laurie Hernandez's Olympic gymnastics analysis.

In the archives, we discussed parenting job descriptions and how they've changed, or haven't, since 2018.
