Books, classical music, prone to hyperbole. Just moved back to Minneapolis after 22 years in DC and I’m loving it. Someone assumed I was straight, so here’s this:🏳️‍🌈.

I mainly listened to CDs in 2025 so the Spotify results are a little funky, but I’m guessing there is no one else on the planet with this as their top song for the year.

I think the novella Train Dreams by Denis Johnson is a masterpiece, but I don’t think I want to see it on the screen.

Henry DORN, Anna CLYNE, and my first live BRAHMS Requiem. @minnesotaorchestra.org

I fucking hate Arizona. Beautiful weather and not one single window in this VRBO has a screen. Because we must be pickled in AC 12 months a year. This is why we are all going to die.

Bad cup holder placement.

I flew from Minneapolis to Calgary for 8 minutes of Malcolm ARNOLD with the @calgaryphil.bsky.social. I guess I’ll stay for the DVOŘÁK and NIELSEN. (I wish we got to hear this organ tonight as well.)

Grant Wood had them pegged in this 1936 illustration for the Sinclair Lewis novel Main Street.

Go buy a bunch of @mcnallyeditions.com, they have a great art department. I’m only 35 pages in, but this illustration couldn’t be more on the nose.

Now that I'm doing a renovation which will increase my bookshelf capacity by 150%, I'm struggling to get rid of books I DNF.

Not a very spooky Halloween, but a great @minnesotaorchestra.org program ahead with BOULANGER, SAINT-SAËNS, WEILL, and RAVEL.

Not that I have anything against Sybil Fawlty, but I think not enough people are giving Elizabeth Mapp her due. (Not to mention Aunt Juley in Howards End.)

When I get my BLT and Grilled Cheese for breakfast at Ben’s Chili Bowl at DCA, I never know which to eat first.

I like that people ask me about my Minnesota Orchestra hoodie every time I wear it, but they always think I’m in the orchestra. I’m going to go ask that guy at my gate in the Vikings shirt what position he plays.

For those who loved Geoffrey Household’s Rogue Male, you should check out A Rough Shoot. Had me up way too late on a school night.

BRITTEN, CLYNE, and BEETHOVEN with the @minnesotaorchestra.org to round off No Kings day.
