Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

Yeah, but there's still that bit where you start to groove before you remember how terrible it is.

This is me. Damn if it doesn't get me every time. (But I'm also on record as loving "Baby It's Cold Outside" despite how rapey it is. I recognize that some shit is problematic but has a good melody.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is what I'm saying! I forgot how good the music is.

Our family solution is to groove to the Weird Al version, "Word Crimes." (Bonus: dorky grammar jokes.)

"Word Crimes" is AWESOME. And it should not be surprising that a bajillion people sent it to me (or tagged me on FB) when it came out.

I may just stick to "Got to Give it Up."

Well, I've had "One More Day" stuck in my head thanks to Broadway Karaoke, but Marvin Gaye is a contender to dislodge it.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I find "King Tut" to be a fine balm for earworm-frazzeled thoughts.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Had my annual physical. Triglycerides are up again, but I'm otherwise in good health.(In hindsight, maybe it wasn't a good idea to schedule the fasting blood work for the day after a convention.)

Oh, I'm feeling impostery today. Found out I dropped the ball on something kind of badly and now we have to scramble to cover it. It's repairable, but embarrassing.

... And the hospice nurse just called, Dad has pneumonia again. Another round of antibiotics. Woot.

Because books.

Yikes. I'm sorry about both, Consuela.
