Gen X parent pride moment, taking the eldest offspring to get his first tattoo and getting another for myself right after. He drew my lighthouse and I designed his Jonah crab. A fine graduation present.

My 13yo took control of the car stereo and started bumping Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man". I turned and looked at him and he said "What? I'm in a jazz fusion phase."
WTF am I supposed to do with that? Besides supporting him on his jazz odyssey of course.

Haven't finished the season yet but the Ron Perlman episode of Mr and Mrs Smith might be the highpoint.
Watched it with my eldest. I kept saying that he was just like that not too long ago and he kept saying that I am going to be just like that not too far from now.

If a witch is to be in constant conversation with place she needs to listen to all its voices. The first voice to learn the language of is the river. In flood-churn or calm progress, it is a news-bringer, mood-teller. It knows the land well. – #EmilyBanting, 1981 #WitchWednesday

In the latest Ken & Robin podcast, Ken was discussing a book given to him from a friend.
"It was something he found in his father's library as he was disassembling it."
New life goal, have a library big enough my offspring have to disassemble it when I'm gone.

My brain: Hey!

My brain: You look like you need a rathole.
Me: Nah, all set. Busy, busy!
My brain: Remember Ska music?
Me: Oh yeah! I should make a playlist...
Then the hours slip away like grains of sand in the wind but with an upbeat horn section and all productivity disappears.
