Daycare. Daycare is the blessing and curse of the week. Blessing because trying to watch a crawling baby and get any amount of work done is a wicked, impossible thing. Good riddance! A curse because with local schools open again, the metaphor of daycare as Petri dish is darn accurate. (The whole family is sick.)
Children’s birthday parties. Are more fun that movies and TV led me to think! A nice opportunity to meet other parents at our daycare, too.
Amelia Dimoldenberg (Chicken Shop Date). Late to the party here! Dimoldenberg’s oddball interviews have a kinship with Between…Two Ferns and Hot Ones.
Cat in the Rain (Turnpike Troubadours). Another album from my favorite Red Dirt band is a blessing after a six-year silence.
Echo the Diamond (Margaret Glaspy). A thorny, “New York” rock album that I loved on first listen.
Chicken and waffles. When done well, there may be no better food truck food.
