  • Today is the 64th b'day of Curt Smith, co-singer & bass player from Tears for Fears. Their few hits are a bit dated & overplayed now thanks to commercials, but my fave song was always The Hurting.
  • TY so much! Have fun at the parade if you go! Glad your team won.
  • Have 3 interviews this week, all for different jobs/fields, different states. Fingers crossed I get an offer. #1, tomorrow at 10am via phone. #2-3, Wed-Thurs via Teams.
  • If I stocked up on peanut butter, I'd eat it all. 😕 Gained my 1st 10-lbs on PB toast.
  • Studying. I've got 3 interviews this week, 2 via Teams. Guess that means I've got to get up early to primp so I can look like an actual girl. Fingers crossed.
  • I'm in FL. I feel your pain. But, I do hope you have a restful rest-of-the-day.
  • Indeed. I'm one of those who is too much in my head, so I have to remind myself to stop for a bit. An hour lunch is a necessity for me… I can't wolf down a sandwich in 4 bites & return to the grind. I need to empty my brain, eat slowly, watch the colors around me… color seems to take me out of work-mind. Fortunately, the…
  • Haha. Good q. I may need another, or a walk in 100-degree heat… before articulation kicks in. 😊 Your q actually reminds me of the movie, Koyaanisqatsi… the Hopi word meaning life out of balance. I have found that when accidentally juxtaposing tasks in my morning ritual that it throws me out of balance & I forget to do…
  • Ah, you do you, as the kids like to say. And, forgive my sneaky hug in response to your response. 😁 No fear… I've bathed today & am gentle on skeletons.
  • Sonic Youth's drummer, Steve Shelley's 63rd b'day is today. I'm a newcomer to SY, after listening to the audiobook of Kim Gordon's auto-bio (where she seemed to like absolutely no one but her acquaintance, Kurt Cobain)… I like 70-80s US/UK punk journals, reading about influential or flicker-in-time bands I've never known.…
  • Drank 2 espressos & pondering life choices. Usually that happens before 2 espressos so I guess today's a special day.
  • Nice! Sounds like fun. I've seen some episodes on YTube, as well as Soul Train. I've also been watching old episodes of Rhoda on YTube, too. Temporarily staying with relatives & there's no TV, so I'm trying to find free things online. It's a show that's more than a bit dated & un-PC now (surely, they'd be cancelled by…
  • I love lap swimming. Haven't been in years now but can't wait to begin again someday soon. My dream would be an endless pool, but I'm a lifelong apt dweller. Maybe someday (fingers crossed) I'll live in an actual house & can have an endless pool. First I'll have to find a bf with a house, then hope for the best. 🤭
  • I'm not the huggy type, especially when being introduced to strangers. I'm used to having people crunch my bones, even with handshakes, so a hearty, "Nice to meet you" or head nod is all I need. Yesterday, I met a relative of my brother's wife, who hadn't bathed in days… he was out in the FL sun working all day, soaking…
  • Today's Todd Rundgren's 77th b'day. Here's a live performance (remember those) of "Hello, It's Me" on The Midnight Special. Before my time, but a nice song…
  • Hi Kerstin… Just wanted to share my perspective. Weight loss is a new venture for me & I'm loving it. A bio-blurb: I currently have 25-lbs to lose, after an incident 3-1/2 yrs ago where 14 bones were broken… the long recovery meant no exercise at all, no walking. Now that I'm newly out of pain, I'm looking at food in a new…
  • Please let one of the jobs I'm interviewing for come through with an offer. It's going to take 3-4-5 wks, given all the follow-up interviews. My living situation is so traumatizing, it's getting hard not to run to a hotel… but, I can't afford it. I'm hanging in there… Universe, pull through for me, please.
  • I'd like a 3rd party to pic the next one. I can't seem to see passed my attraction. I see nothing but flashing neon signs once I smarten up & leave & can't understand how I saw none of them beforehand, given how many there were.
  • Listening to the thunder that sounds like a truck hitting the house… no rain, no lightning. Just daily thunder in the panhandle.
  • A cold rotisserie chicken at Winn Dixie for $2. I don't normally eat them… too salty & an over-abundance of seasonings that aren't my preference… but, I couldn't pass up the price.
  • Well, since Lana Del Ray was born today, Summertime Sadness, a haunting song & video…
