Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Honestly I don't even know what to think right now. I'm glad my nephew and niece are safe, but someone else's kid isn't.

How am I supposed to complain about how disappointing my lunch is when people are getting shot in schools and synagogues and grocery stores?

Please, complain about your lunch. I could really use a distraction.

It's Campbell's Jambalaya, so I kind of knew it wouldn't be good, but I didn't expect it to be quite so ... soupy.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Like the time my mom ordered jambalaya in a supposedly Cajun-ish restaurant and it came in a cup with a side of rice.

I've never had real jambalaya. I don't even know what it is supposed to taste like.

It's kinda like Spanish rice with more stuff in it, sj.

I guess so, Dana. I've never encountered that before. Huh.

Well, now I know.

Not soupy, that's for sure.

I had jerk chicken for lunch.

I got back from Disney World Saturday night. I'm still completely exhausted from the trip and I gained weight there eating crappy food. I did get to go to Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal while we were down there, so that made me happy. I also convinced my family to use one of our FastPasses for the Haunted Mansion.

I had a frozen burrito for lunch.
