Doing my fall remote teaching on Friday nights, by asking students about jobs they've had. Gave my traditional "thank you for your service" to any food delivery drivers.

Short tempers everywhere, blood on the streets, world on fire and under water, trying to keep it together through it all by humming a simple tune
"Nancy Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey... Nancy Whiskey, Nancy-O!"
"Nancy Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey... Nancy Whiskey, Nancy-O!"

I'll never forget what the gas station dude told me when I was 14: "Kid, you should start smoking cigarettes. If you don't everything about the world will drive you insane."

I'm reading a book about the 1844 Nativist Riots against Irish Catholics. One striking thing is that Fishtown in the 19th century was considered a Protestant stronghold (as well as still having fishers in the streams before the city drained them all.)

Maybe I should start writing short book reviews of the stuff I'm reading again. Haven't been doing that since December.

I just spent 15 minutes trying to analyze the lyrics of "Nancy Whiskey" to determine if it was about an actual woman who ruined the protagonist or alcoholism. The conclusion is it was definitely about alcoholism

Catscan got pushed back a week and a half because insurance said they needed to know it was medically necessary. Lol thanks guys, I'm already thrilled about shelling out $700 to make sure I'm not dying

I have a cat scan scheduled next week. I've never had one of those before so I'm assuming it'll be quick once they figure out I didn't smuggle in any cats

Summer's ashes are finally home. I'm creating a shrine with her favorite winter sweater, her collars for people who were skittish about her breed, her favorite toys, and her leash which would make her so excited because she knew she was going on walks.

I'm out of the house for the first time since Saturday, to do a Center City Food Tour for a group of 4 in 20something degree weather. I'm still figuring out the transition to life without seeing Summer every day, but it's nice to see people walking their dogs.
