My view of Josh Ritter’s Silo Session tonight: a full performance of So Runs the World Away in its 10th anniversary! ❤️ 🎶

I made a thing in Tableau, and then figured I should validate some specifics with R… and… it matched. So I should probably quit for the day, because honestly it’s not going to get better from here. (Also allowing that I’m precisely and equally bad at both, to be clear.)

I’ve been making time to listen to music before bed lately. The new album from Waxahatchee is so brilliant. And Frank Turner turned me on to Micah Schnabel a few weeks ago. His writing and singing is urgent, cutting and moving.

I missed the live broadcast last night because of My Work, so watching Josh Ritter’s latest Silo Session with lunch is a real treat. It has been special to “gather” with family dispersed far away and share these performances the past few weeks.

Stayed off Twitter all day yesterday and it was good for my mental health. Might do it again today.

Looks like it’s that time again, Sprinkler Repair Season.
