Rewatched the latest South Park episode. It wasn't as biting as the rest of this season, but I was also distracted Wednesday night (and extremely tired). This time I picked up a few more jokes and continued to laugh at the depiction of JD Vance as Tattoo from Fantasy Island. A good watch, again.

Sarah McLachlan's performance of "Better Broken" on Kimmel Tuesday night was soooo much better than the album version. On Kimmel, she performed solo with just a piano. The album track is backed (bafflingly) by a weird electronic drum loop that serves the song not at all.

Could we please not discover radioactive shrimp at Walmart on nights when Colbert is dark?

_Cover Yo' Azz!_ is the new covers album from Cowboy Mouth. While it's missing the energy of Mouth's best studio releases, it's as heartfelt and uplifting as all their work. Highlight is the closer, a Hootie and the Blowfish tune I'd never heard, "City by a River."

Wow. The purple was legitimately the first I got. Blue was DIFFICULT. Didn't know it until I eliminated the green.

I know this is just from stress and extreme sleep deprivation, but boy am I freaking moody this evening. And tense.

Submitted my entry to the #WritingBattle spring microfiction challenge. My first time competing with this organization. I wouldn't call it FUN because writing is torture, but it was about as fun as could be, I think. :) Feel like there are no stakes except the new experience.

Grooving to Led Zep IV in my Bose headphones as I get through my to-do list at work.

Why don't you take a good look
at yourself and describe what you see?
And baby baby baby do you like it?
