Every few months, me and Queen Cavalier reward ourselves with a fine dining experience. Tonight it was a place called Geraldines. Pretty good rib eye steak and risotto with braised short ribs. The best part is always the cocktails and the dessert. We had expresso martinis, french martinis, and ended with a french style coffee service. We got all gussied up and I sported a bad-ass pair of Chucks.

Sorry I couldn’t get a front view but we were in motion. No quarter panels. No hood. No front bumper. It’s what Daryl Waltrip calls “a Bristol special”.

Just arrived from the UK! My wife bought me one of my favorite albums on vinyl. Its been bouncing around the US for the last week (Chicago-Marietta-Pensacola- Indy???) but it finally made it.

The Joy Hotel, “Ceremony” (Blue/Red/White splatter vinyl).

Cool to see birthday wishes for Geddy Lee on COSO today. As I age - I have less and less use for "heroes". Geddy inspired me to be a better songwriter and bass player, and how to be a good bandmate. Approaching 60 - I don't really idolize people anymore. But I read Ged's book this year and felt a kinship with him - what his family endured and how our childhoods were very similar, and how music rescued him. Happy Birthday, Gershon! I'll spin a little RUSH (still one of my favorite bands) today.

🎧 Paul Weller, "66". The Modfather celebrates his 66th bday with an album of modern-English pop. Collabs with Bobby Gillespie, Noel, Suggs, and others add to the usual variety of moods Weller has employed throughout his solo career. From soulful tracks like "Nothing" and "Soul Wandering" to more folkier songs like "I Woke Up" and the near Floyd-like "Burn Out" its a really fine listen - sophisticated and totally enjoyable.

Daughter’s 13th bday cake, baked by her and her mommy. Its red velvet, and hand decorated.

Unexpected visitor. Apparently, toads love Alicia Keys.

Our “baby” becomes a teenager next week! In house photographer and SO took the gear out for a shoot last night in the downtown sunset.

Why, yes, this IS a Yiddish insult coffee mug! It’s what all the alter kakers are drinking out of these days, ya shmendrick!

Cheers all!

Bless my amazing family and how they indulge an old man’s whims. Birthday dinner: matzoh ball soup and reubens (all home made), b&w cookies, and the birthday gift haul. I love my people!

Contemplating my last day as a 57yo. I don't have a #hashtag for this.

For a supporter to say, in a business email, "stop the political hate" shows how disconnected they are. And the nudge nudge about their sale is right out of the orange grifter playbook.

(I got this is an email from Sticker Mule, to which I have now unsubscribed without comment). #politics
