Teen just came into the office, announced that he intends to start learning to play the banjo (he learned guitar about... three/four years ago and, crucially, has not touched it since), will record himself playing a song on both instruments and release said song online to great fame and fortune.

On one hand, I really really want t-storms to fuck with events in DC tomorrow.
On the other, my kid is swimming in his first A meet in over a year (butterfly!) and I really really want it not to be cancelled.
Can someone please arrange for weather not to cross the Potomac? That would be swell.

Don't mind me, I'm just taking glamor shots of an old iron I found for $3 at a yard sale this morning and which I plan to use for weighing down #bookbinding projects.

I am normally not a fan of putting flags out in the front yard, but husband has put the Milwaukee Brewers flag up at half mast for Bob Uecker, which is 100% on brand for him.

Pizzerias should always have the following offers, clearly marked:
YOUR KID IS PICKY #1 (cheese)
YOUR KID IS PICKY #2 (pepperoni)
Go crazy with the other pies. Eggplant & arugula & raw egg. Fresh garlic & spinach & some ingredient I have to look up. Just spare a thought for foodies w/ picky kids.

I finished binging the latest GBBO series (yes yes, I'm late, leave me alone) and I need something else to watch. Netflix, Disney, or Amazon Prime are easiest. Suggestions, please?

I'm going to run an experiment. It doesn't matter what room I'm in, within half an hour of me going there, the rest of the family will follow. I am currently in the office. I am going to move to the kitchen now. Stay tuned.
