Notes — 2019

December 16, 2019 at 04:35 PM

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.

December 13, 2019 at 01:56 PM

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

December 11, 2019 at 04:26 PM

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!

November 23, 2019 at 04:21 PM

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.

November 21, 2019 at 02:58 PM

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.

November 20, 2019 at 05:14 PM

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.

November 20, 2019 at 05:04 PM

I've decided to take up the nickname "America's Mayor."

November 15, 2019 at 07:43 PM

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.

November 07, 2019 at 08:20 PM

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.

November 07, 2019 at 06:23 PM

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.

November 04, 2019 at 04:41 PM

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

October 29, 2019 at 08:25 PM

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.

October 28, 2019 at 09:47 PM

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

October 26, 2019 at 12:49 PM

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.

October 24, 2019 at 09:36 PM

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.

October 20, 2019 at 07:51 PM

also, I usually bring home the small paper coffee cup from church and use it as my bathroom water cup for that entire upcoming week.

October 20, 2019 at 07:21 PM

Going to be that guy: why would I watch an NFL game when I could be watching another beautiful episode of Rick Steves’ Europe?

October 15, 2019 at 05:53 PM

I love sauce. That is all. Just sauce all the time on everything. Give me the sauce.

October 15, 2019 at 03:54 PM

First outing just me and the kids, plus the baby. To Cabela’s. Fun but nervous.

September 28, 2019 at 02:09 PM

There’s a kid named Enzo playing on the nearby field. There’s also a woman drinking Topo Chico from a plastic bottle. Not her own bottle, but the same one that the beverage came in. It’s windy.

September 25, 2019 at 04:35 AM

Loving iOS 13.1 - and especially the updates to Shortcuts. Outstanding, yet little heralded.

September 19, 2019 at 11:59 PM

Eagerly anticipating Ken Burns Jr’s 2067 documentary “SoundCloud Rap.”

September 17, 2019 at 03:11 PM

Discovered in a pile of papers a drawing my daughter made. Took my breath away for a second because of all the large piercing eyes in it.

September 15, 2019 at 09:47 AM

I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness.

September 12, 2019 at 07:37 AM

This baby is coming TODAY

August 29, 2019 at 11:34 AM

The Battle of Who Could Care Less stick in my head today. Good tune.

August 23, 2019 at 05:16 PM

Remember the cheese curds we had at that place? Yes i do - THE BUFFALO

August 19, 2019 at 11:22 AM

Yesterday I learned from Rick Steves (#YILFRS): 80 million people live in Germany, a country the size of Montana.

August 17, 2019 at 12:55 PM

Lets talk about the arm wrestling scene from Twin Peaks. Tell you what: that's something worth talking about.

August 13, 2019 at 11:02 AM

You just don't want to go outside when it's 100 or more. Can't figure out much to do right now.

August 12, 2019 at 04:20 PM

112 heat index. Power company email asks to raise your thermostat by 4 degrees. My wife says that that's directed at "normal" people who keep it set at 70. I set ours at 82.

August 06, 2019 at 12:48 PM

How many people have converted to Catholicism because Father Brown is such an awesome detective?

August 06, 2019 at 09:03 AM

Wish I would’ve put off learning to ride the pedal bike until fall.

July 29, 2019 at 06:25 PM

Unfortunately I didn’t get around to watching that TV I said I would.

July 27, 2019 at 06:32 PM

In other news: an asteroid almost smashed into earth yesterday. A city killer. Filed in the department of existential threats that aren’t going away.

July 27, 2019 at 06:26 PM

What’re you guys up to tonight? I’m giving kids baths and watching TV.

July 09, 2019 at 09:42 PM

The window cleaner who suddenly appears in S3E14 of Twin Peaks is doing the worst squeegee work I’ve ever seen.

July 08, 2019 at 02:28 PM

Trip to NE Mall today. Hoooooooot our today. CCF Big Give post today. Today today today is a day.

June 30, 2019 at 07:59 AM

This morning our dog got out - chased a lady halfway up the block - then foolishly stopped to poop in the yard across the street, which is how I caught him.

June 26, 2019 at 06:59 PM

Band name idea: Paw.

June 14, 2019 at 05:55 PM

The problem is that I want to have ALL of the entertainment experiences. The trap of the modern world.

June 04, 2019 at 03:04 PM

Catching up with all the WWDC info - actually pretty exciting that I could now sync a PS4 controller to ATV.

June 02, 2019 at 09:28 PM

Watching Harry Potter.

May 30, 2019 at 12:40 AM

Watched the Titus Andronicus live stream and prestige sitcom today. Like those guys a lot.

May 30, 2019 at 12:08 AM

I don’t have time to watch TV—and that stinks an ever so slight bit.

May 27, 2019 at 09:19 AM

Low end estimates are that Emily Dickinson spent a third of her life sleeping, a half writing letters, and a half writing poems.

May 24, 2019 at 07:37 PM

My old copy of the debut Vampire Weekend album (that fell off the back of a truck) had the wrong track order and included an extra song. Now I've got the correct album. My wrong version was better.

May 07, 2019 at 09:48 AM

Another downside to listening to your music exclusively on a streaming service: loss of privacy - you tell a big company everything about how, when, and where you listen to your music - also, obviously, What you listen to - and how often and how many times.

April 25, 2019 at 07:01 PM

I don't care much that the recent glut of Marvel movies are "ending." They're bloated and long and tiresome. Also, they'll never actually end. Hollywood played nerds like a fiddle.

April 25, 2019 at 01:45 PM

In about 90 minutes, will have finished listening to all 15 Shostakovich string quartets. My favorites remain #3 in F, #5 in Bb, #15 in Ebm.

April 25, 2019 at 10:17 AM

Used filtered water from the fridge to make the coffee this morning. This is the great stuff of life. Hot off the presses news and content.

April 09, 2019 at 09:28 AM

"Walking in your footsteps" Walking in your hoofprints Walking in your bootstraps Walking in your tweetstorms Walking in your gene reports Walking in your flop sweat

March 28, 2019 at 08:07 PM

Joke my daughter told today: "Birdseeds."

March 19, 2019 at 10:50 AM

PLEASE please please please - let Nintendo be appearing again at next week's Apple event. Get Miyamoto up there to announce MarioKart.

March 12, 2019 at 05:50 PM

Watching kids Jeopardy - for one daily double the girl wagered $150 - for another, the boy wagered $10. Ten dollars.

March 11, 2019 at 12:57 PM

I think each neighborhood should have at least 1 public printer, so people can successfully get the 1 thing each year they need printed.

March 04, 2019 at 07:03 PM

I would like to publicly apologize to my brother in law for judging the stained-ness of his thermal coffee carafe - we've had one for awhile, and now ours is by faaaaar more stained than his was. I didn't know the truth then, but now I do. I was wrong and I'm sorry.

March 03, 2019 at 08:21 AM

I would like to revise my opinion of the new Vampire Weekend tune "Harmony Hall." My kids like it and its grown on me in weeks since release. I like it.

February 28, 2019 at 03:14 PM

Band name idea: 5G Rollout

February 27, 2019 at 12:04 PM

"Blackbird"" came on my playlist and my daughter recognized it as Tim’s song in BOSS BABY - so now we’re watching BOSS BABY.

February 27, 2019 at 08:33 AM

My wife made muffins this morning - they're amazing - but I didn't know it was possible to make that many dirty dishes early in the morning.

February 16, 2019 at 02:50 PM

Recently I learned that in Hawaii they have a name for when it rains while still sunny: The wolf is giving birth.

February 09, 2019 at 02:58 PM

I came up with a great new name for a small batch whiskey: Old Fantastic. Go ahead and use the name if you want.

February 08, 2019 at 02:11 PM

I would like some kind of augmented reality situation where people passing by could see a pop up display of what book I'm reading on my e-reader.

February 05, 2019 at 10:01 AM

Watching today: Slow TV: Bergen to Oslo - a 7 hour train ride.

February 04, 2019 at 08:07 AM

What does it mean that the Apostle Paul, and a fair amount of his friends, believed that Jesus was about to return at any moment?

February 01, 2019 at 03:31 PM

Right now debating what to do tonight - try to get a few more Bandersnatch endings, watch Buster Scruggs, watch Nausicaa, watch Batman Begins, or start a replay of Chrono Trigger.

January 14, 2019 at 02:36 PM

Doing dishes. This has been my greatest success of 2019 so far. Lots of dishes done.

January 14, 2019 at 09:54 AM

Is it “She’ll be riding” or “She’ll be driving” Six White Horses when she comes? Got to be driving, right? One can’t ride six horses at the same time.

January 10, 2019 at 04:10 PM

My wife keeps telling me “Use up the old coffee BEFORE you open the new.” But life is short and difficult.

January 08, 2019 at 06:01 PM

Is there anything worse than the way Messenger tries so hard to keep you in the app when you tap a link? Feels so desperate - the way they hide the Open in Safari button is criminal.

January 07, 2019 at 03:23 PM

One can’t respond to the PCO request too soon after it’s issued. Gotta let em stew and wonder just a bit.

January 05, 2019 at 09:25 AM

Listening to Leonard Cohen today. Planning to listen to Einstein on the Beach later this evening.
