COVID-19 update #3 - It is Monday. It is Monday. IT IS MONDAY - not Saturday or Sunday. Monday. I discovered that the mark that indicates the toaster setting is in a difference spot that I'd previously thought - so I've been toasting everything wrong.

COVID-19 update #2: the kids' preschool is set to reopen 3/30 pending any orders from on high. With curbside drop off only. Parents not allowed in the building. Also, we haven't eaten all the falafel. It is raining again and again and again.

COVID 19 update 1: we are making fallafel today. The robot vacuum ran on MAX mode and couldn't find its way home. I am formulating an arrangement of MARVELOUS LIGHT in my head I hope to finish soon.

There was a coffee shop in Iowa City around 2004-I think it was called Hennepin Coffee-it was downtown at Iowa Ave and Linn-they served coffee in pint beer glasses with cardboard sleeves to protect from the heat.

Me: Why do you enjoy causing me so much grief?

Daughter: haha yes. Grief is a funny word.

Odd STAR WARS moment I will most remember from SKYWALKER RISE: the chimp expertly welding together Kylo Ren's helmet. Where did that guy come from?

Finally saw the latest STAR WARS. It was fine. I honestly wanted to see it mostly so I could listen to the podcasts about it in my back catalog. But as an evening out, it was fun times.

Watching the STAR WARS prequels for the first time since they were in theaters. These movies are not as bad as the purists would have you believe. Come on now, people.

My wife, in her infinite wisdom, looked at the offical calendar and discovered that the kids don't return to school until tomorrow. Right as I was getting geared up to get them ready and out the door.

Don't share this with anyone - but I often will purposefully smack my lips loudly when eating alone. I forget whether I've ever shared this before - but like I said, please keep it to yourself.

Where Alan Jackson comes from they're trying hard to get to heaven, but that's not how heaven works.

Now beginning to admit that I guess I like science fiction. Watching BATTLESTAR GALACTICA - and I’ll be up all night Friday watching the new season of THE EXPANSE.

Space drama!

Watched the Disney+ version of STAR WARS last night. Can't get enough of M'CLUNKEY. Funniest thing I've seen in my entire life.

One of my favorite #impeachmenthearings details: David Holmes being able to clearly hear President Trump's voice without being on speaker while Sondland held it away from his face. We've all met people with voices like that - that just carry without effort - so perfectly fits the President's demeanor.

Sondland has been sipping from his coffee cup A LOT - way more than any other witness. Doesn’t mean anything except that he’s going to need to take more frequent bathroom breaks.

I love watching the #ImpeachmentHearings on C-Span because they don’t cut away from the room during breaks - just show the goings on and mannerisms and conversation and what's generally happening among folks. Just people milling around.

Watching one of the thousand BARBIE shows on Netflix. Learned that her last name is Roberts, in the universe of this particular show at least. She also used the word “adulting” when describing to her parents why her new job would prevent her from going on the family vacation.

More kids in DFW North Texas are named Landry than anywhere in the world. In fact, I’ve never heard the name anywhere but here.

If you gave up on MR ROBOT during S2, you're missing out. Missing out, I tell you!

Typically, I make one pot of coffee each morning. But every other day I make an extra pot at some point - then drink on it through the evening and save the rest for the next day's first cup.

AirPods PRO earned the PRO moniker by being completely earwax resistant.

tbh, I care more about the new episodes of LITTLE BABY BUM that just made it to Netflix than any new show or movie they’re releasing.

Found my asparagus tie black rubber band wedding ring in my jeans pocket today. Excited to stop wearing my daughter's sparkly hair ties as rings. IN OTHER NEWS, listening to R.E.M.
