I've just arranged a parcel pickup for next Wednesday. I said "Explain Wed-nes-day to the couriers slowly, using small words", so of course I'm expecting them to knock on the door any minute.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on

You the mothers who sent your sons
Wipe away your tears
For those who fought and those who fell
Become our sons as well
You the warriors with your words
Throw away your spears
You talk of times of peace for all
And then prepare for war

If Christ were here he'd camera check
He'd cry so loud the planes would stop
He'd cry so loud the earth would shake
And men would fall in tinsel town
There's just one thing
Yes there's just one thing
Who can stand in the way
When there's a dollar to be made?

Please check your kids’ Halloween candy carefully this year.
I bit into a chocolate bar and found Microsoft Teams.

Do the five day grind once more
I know of nothin' else that bugs me
More than workin' for the rich man
Hey, I'll change that scene one day
Today I might be mad, tomorrow I'll be glad
'Cause I'll have Friday on my mind

i learnt this way too late but a little tip for the Very Online: when someone shows you a post you've already seen, the correct response is "omg that rocks/sucks" and not "yeah i saw that". sharing Posts is a love language and you should always show your appreciation :)

I feel very seen. At least my daughter laughed when I showed her (as we listened to The Commitments soundtrack)

If you can hear a piano fall
You can hear me coming down the hall
If I could just hear your pretty voice
I don't think I need to see at all
