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've decided to take up the nickname "America's Mayor."
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.
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.
Going to be that guy: why would I watch an NFL game when I could be watching another beautiful episode of Rick Steves’ Europe?
I love sauce. That is all. Just sauce all the time on everything. Give me the sauce.
First outing just me and the kids, plus the baby. To Cabela’s. Fun but nervous.
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.
Loving iOS 13.1 - and especially the updates to Shortcuts. Outstanding, yet little heralded.
Eagerly anticipating Ken Burns Jr’s 2067 documentary “SoundCloud Rap.”
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.
I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness.
This baby is coming TODAY
The Battle of Who Could Care Less stick in my head today. Good tune.
Remember the cheese curds we had at that place? Yes i do - THE BUFFALO
Yesterday I learned from Rick Steves (#YILFRS): 80 million people live in Germany, a country the size of Montana.
Lets talk about the arm wrestling scene from Twin Peaks. Tell you what: that's something worth talking about.
You just don't want to go outside when it's 100 or more. Can't figure out much to do right now.
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.
How many people have converted to Catholicism because Father Brown is such an awesome detective?
Wish I would’ve put off learning to ride the pedal bike until fall.
Unfortunately I didn’t get around to watching that TV I said I would.
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.
What’re you guys up to tonight? I’m giving kids baths and watching TV.
The window cleaner who suddenly appears in S3E14 of Twin Peaks is doing the worst squeegee work I’ve ever seen.
Trip to NE Mall today. Hoooooooot our today. CCF Big Give post today. Today today today is a day.
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.
Band name idea: Paw.
The problem is that I want to have ALL of the entertainment experiences. The trap of the modern world.
Catching up with all the WWDC info - actually pretty exciting that I could now sync a PS4 controller to ATV.
Watching Harry Potter.
Watched the Titus Andronicus live stream and prestige sitcom today. Like those guys a lot.
I don’t have time to watch TV—and that stinks an ever so slight bit.
Low end estimates are that Emily Dickinson spent a third of her life sleeping, a half writing letters, and a half writing poems.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
"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
Joke my daughter told today: "Birdseeds."
PLEASE please please please - let Nintendo be appearing again at next week's Apple event. Get Miyamoto up there to announce MarioKart.
Watching kids Jeopardy - for one daily double the girl wagered $150 - for another, the boy wagered $10. Ten dollars.
I think each neighborhood should have at least 1 public printer, so people can successfully get the 1 thing each year they need printed.
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.
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.
Band name idea: 5G Rollout
"Blackbird"" came on my playlist and my daughter recognized it as Tim’s song in BOSS BABY - so now we’re watching BOSS BABY.
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.
Recently I learned that in Hawaii they have a name for when it rains while still sunny: The wolf is giving birth.
I came up with a great new name for a small batch whiskey: Old Fantastic. Go ahead and use the name if you want.
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.
Watching today: Slow TV: Bergen to Oslo - a 7 hour train ride.
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?
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.
Doing dishes. This has been my greatest success of 2019 so far. Lots of dishes done.
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.
My wife keeps telling me “Use up the old coffee BEFORE you open the new.” But life is short and difficult.
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.
One can’t respond to the PCO request too soon after it’s issued. Gotta let em stew and wonder just a bit.
Listening to Leonard Cohen today. Planning to listen to Einstein on the Beach later this evening.
