All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

I want to hear LDB from a rock band with a kick-ass drummer, just to liven it up a bit. Let's really hear that drummer play for him.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

mac is home, at least for now. he has put the tracker app back on his phone also. no apology and he's not engaging at all, but he has heard some ground rules and at least opted to stay for tonight.

His room is far cleaner than he left it and I am on the 4th load of laundry from his room.

Our wings are not tired.

Wishes for some peace in the household, msbelle.

Mr. S isn't quite there yet.

Many boys aren't in that age range. There may be some wiggle room.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ltc isn't quite there yet either. There is a karate class I want to sign her up for, but she has to be completely trained for that.

I'm sorry, meara. That sucks.

That sounds fairly positive, msbelle. Good luck.

I am so tired. What with one thing another I didn't get any dinner until after 9 and thar is just not how I live.

The Flaming Lips have a version out there. I don't think it's very drum heavy, though? Guitar forward.

Jack in the Box has a Pumpkin Spice shake made with real pumpkin - pretty good!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If you catch the Ben Folds holiday special on PBS in a couple of weeks, you can see him do the Bing/Bowie version with a tap dancer. FYI.

I spent some time trying the various holiday jazz stations available in the car. Not quite accustomed to the new streaming service after years of Sirius, but getting there. I did not get any jazzy LDB in my travels though.

This Friday morning I did at least remember to listen to the Breakfast of Champions stream on my computer, and for this I am more awake for my tasks at hand.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I've put together an LDB-free playlist for the car. But I'm still vulnerable while shopping and otherwise out in the world, so I figure it isn't really cheating
