I’m talking to a bartender with such a hoarse voice that she makes me feel very pleased that I never took up smoking cigarettes long-term.
I know, it sounds awful, but these days I’ll get my little victories wherever I can get them.
Peace.

I love David Bowie's music so much that I named my dog after Ziggy Stardust, and our wedding song was the Diamond Dogs cut, "Rock 'n' Roll With Me."
Without a doubt, he was and remains the most creative mind of our times.
"I'm in tears again when you rock and roll with me..." 🎶

The cleaning lady at the office was taken aback by Metallica's music.
Once I informed her I'm trying to get a lot done, and the music helps, she smiled and said, "Well, that makes a lot of sense. You go ahead, sweetheart."
It's the little things.

Listening to Beck on shuffle is my 2026 vibe.

Seems appropriate as I look toward the new year with an optimistic mindset.
Eyes forward, let’s go!

I hope everyone is having a great time tonight. I wish I weren't so busy, but the alternative is even worse.
You guys take care! I'll see you soon.

Sending anyone a tracking number that remains in pre-shipment status for days on end is just plain... mean.

It's a New Order kind of Wednesday, so I'm indulging in 1987's Substance.

A heartfelt 'Fuck You' to the baggage handlers at American Airlines.
You make me check my carry-on, and then you fuck it up. Airport staff didn't give a shit, either.
A plague on both your houses 😠
