And you can't really see it in the picture, but I'm wearing a "Doctor Who" shirt today. Society failed to train me to be embarrassed about being a nerd. Probably because my power is over 9000.

The necklace means a lot more than just what it means on "Picard". I recognized the symbol immediately and my autistic brain started info dumping all the ways it could apply to the story. And his autistic brain knew this was a particularly personal level of special interest, so he quietly bought me the necklace.

Y'ALL! Okay...I know we're late on this, but my husband and I recently started watching season 1 of "Picard". This has been very emotional for me so far. Not just visiting those characters again, but also the stories being told about family and trauma.

He bought me the necklace! The one Soji and Dahj wear!

Vincent Price was an absolute gift to this world and should not be limited to only being remembered at Halloween.

Got the piano moved to where she now lives! Drew everyone is the house's attention by playing Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah". Once I had them, my family learned I can also play "Never Gonna Give You Up".

So proud of myself for Rick Rolling them with the piano! 😄

According to Lovecraft, March 23 would be the anniversary of a ship landing at R'lyeh. So if you have weird dreams tonight, I'm not saying eldritch abominations are getting into your head...but they COULD be.

My new guitar strings are here! But... I did a lot of cleaning today and my hands refuse to do more. I have made it known in the house that I will be unavailable tomorrow. I have strings to change and music to play.

Were you ever spanked, yanked, cranked but finally thanked?

Manipulated by the nips, tucks & WTF’s?

Laugh tracked & gaff wracked until totally whacked?

Beat down, beat off, back beat unto retreat?

Face boxed, Twatter rocked half tracked on the Substack?

If so, welcome to CoSo

Ain’t none of that here
Breathe in, breathe out, relax
Have a soda or a beer

Swing on the porch
Swim in the pool
Go exploring with a torch
Or learn like it’s school

Me: "This is why you keep getting put out of the room! You are disruptive and uncooperative AF!"

Cat: ...

Me: "I love you."

I did my dance exercise in the yard today. Filled the bird feeder. Gave the corn dollie back to the Land.

It's Spring. 🥰

The myth of "individualism".

I aspire to be ordinary.

It is in the ordinary, where one finds true transcendence.
Doing the dishes, weeding the garden, chopping wood.
Do not wait for the spectacular epiphany. Nor the moment of enlightenment.

It is in the so called mundane, ordinary, daily actions. That you will find the insight of interdependency. This will lead directly to transcendence.

The magic of the ordinary.
The beauty of the real.
The authenticity of the simple.

I don't know how this would work with other acoustic guitars. Years ago, when I was trying to learn guitar, the classical guitar was recommended to me because I prefer fingerstyle over strumming. I just can't keep the chord formations for both instruments in my head, so I now play the guitar like a ukulele.

I have realized that if you play a classical guitar like a ukulele, people who don't play either instrument will think your guitar playing is beautiful.

I may just start telling them it's a 6 string bass ukulele.

My son watches a lot of movies. His friends have come to rely on his reviews. I think he does a good job but then I’m biased. Here’s his latest on the film 65.

No spoilers (I don’t think)

I strained my back pretty bad moving it today. My husband told me later, "Why did you move it? It weighs around 100 pounds!"

Well, I wouldn't have lifted it if I knew THAT!
