Watching Station Eleven. Loving everything about this show, right down to the fonts in the titles. The way it depicts the world spinning right off its axis while you try to make your morning toast or something banal like that.

How can Americans not look into their own hearts and immediately realize that racism in this country remains an ongoing concern? How can anyone claim to have clean hands?

As a tennis fan, I have never much liked N Djok - and his antics in recent years have only decreased his stature in my eyes. Something about his vengeful and emotional and swashbuckling style has always bugged me. But seriously, shame on him for his behavior. His legacy is permanently tarnished.

Feeling like I have a cold this morning. Or is it Covid? I don't think it's COVID-19, caused by the sars-cov2 virus. It's the common cold, caused by the sars-cov-v0.2 virus. Makes you feel a bit run down, then you bounce back like the champion that you are.

I like using heavy gauge guitar strings to discourage my fingers from doing silly things like bending notes.

Watched Don't Look Up for New Year's Eve. The movie had a bitter heart at its core, which I didn't appreciate. Even the shared meal around the table at the end felt in vain. While only the horrible ones live on at all. And humanity is doomed to repeat itself endlessly.

Our families are engaged in their local communities in ways that I am jealous of. Supporting local artisans. Involved in community groups. Buying from local distilleries and wineries and breweries and other manufacturers and coffee shops. I want to make this a priority for the future.

Fox had a few tears leaving Burlington today. That makes me happy and sad - sad we live so far away - happy that he values the time spent there with them.

It's not that All Things Must Pass was a bad song in itself. It just wasn't a Beatles song. And it sounded too dour and funereal.

How is it that some people seem to live forever, no matter how they mistreat themselves, and some healthy people get a disease in their 50's and die off? I almost wrote "in their 40's," but since I'm going to be turning 40 next year, I had to promptly excise that line.

I like putting the GET BACK doc on while I'm puttering around in the evening just to feel like I'm hanging out with The Beatles.

I am falling HARD again for Breath of the Wild. Like I did during those first nights in 2017. Thrilling exploration and climbing and the challenge. I am seeing it through the eyes of FX all over again.

I heard a stat today: 72% of TX nursing home workers have received at least one vaccine dose. HOW IS THIS NUMBER SO LOW. They've only had nearly two years to do their part to protect the most vulnerable population in the country.

Some Bible verses about worship that don't get quoted very often: "I hate, I despise, your feasts! I can't stand the stench of your solemn assemblies ... Take away from me the noise of your song! I will not listen to the music of your harps." Amos 5:21,23

I am not a big fan of musicals in general, but the recent Fresh Air triple episode tribute to Steven Sondheim was moving and it turns out I actually like his music a lot. It's complex and dense and beautiful and abstract.

Why can't Siri, the musicologist, as Phil Schiller called it, do something as simple as Play all my Sting albums in order of release? Or Add all of Beethoven to my up next?

I usually shower on Thursday and Sunday. But I needed to shower yesterday - so I'm off my schedule. Which means I can't shower today, Sunday, because that would mean showering 2 days in a row.

Every person makes observations and draws conclusions from those observations. This is what we are, and that's alright.
