Goddamn I am way too sensitive to be on social media. Let’s hurry this workday along so I can go home and play medium-loud guitar and look up salmon recipes, ok?

That was one of my first CDs I ever owned! But the first time I heard the play it was a dubbed tape of the Michael Damian so I’m revisiting that one. I’ve seen Donny live a couple times though!

So far today I’ve listened to three podcasts and The Thermals and the Michael Damian recording of the Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. I think I need to re-up on my ADD meds.

Tonight’s dinner is pasta 3 ways:
Dairy free Mac and Cheese,
Spaghetti with meatballs,
Spaghetti Aglio e Olio
Not because I’m an amateur short-order cook, but because my children are picky eaters and i like to pretend I’m fancy with simple ingredients.

Telling on myself here, but prior to listening to this week’s episode of The Neighborhood Listen on @cbbworld.bsky.social my only frame of reference for the idiom ‘sixes and sevens’ was in the song “Don’t Cry for Me Argentina.”
I’m now champing at the bit to use the phrase within earshot of my kids.

Turns out the van is a total loss. Just went and cleared all our personal belongings (also, a bunch of garbage thanks to children).

Even though I was looking out for them, I still managed to hit a deer on my way home today. It rolled around a bit then got up and ran away, still being chased by the buck that ran it into the road. I wasn’t hurt and was still able to drive the van home.
Tis the season 🙄. Look out for deer!
