7 things from last week (9/4/23)

  1. Jimmy Buffett. I was surprised to discover how much I was a Jimmy Buffett fan in the wake of his passing. Buffett didn’t have the reputation of a great songwriter, though he was one, and there are plenty of his tunes that I listened to multiple times over the weekend.
  2. A Jimmy Buffett-themed dinner. It felt appropriate—margaritas, cheeseburgers, key lime pie.
  3. Discount Tire. I don’t live calling out businesses, but this is a service experience that is always above my expectations. Gotta love specialized businesses.
  4. How To with John Wilson. Season 3 is as weird as ever, though a little more personal.
  5. Library holds. I missed always having a book on the hold shelf when I’m New Jersey.
  6. The Window (Ratboys). What a big album. The tragic and lovely title track has had its chorus lodged in my head for the better part of two days.
  7. Jupiter. Is visible in the early morning, and my toddler has delighted in pointing it out.
