I tend to think of myself as a wordle-in-three kind of guy but the graph they share at the end clearly says I’m a predictable four.

Few material things can provide perspective. This does for me.

Photo of Otto Frank, returning to his family’s hiding place. In 1944, an informant betrayed them and the family was sent to Auschwitz.

His wife (Edith) was murdered, his daughters (Margot & Anne) died of Typhus.

Ever have one of those days where you strike out at Wordle and Connections and Mini takes five minutes?

I walk around all day thinking am I secretly stupid.

Crooked Teeth

Don’t die with teeth too straight,
box-white, gleaming, porcelain lies—
die with them crooked,
chipped like canyon walls,
ragged as highways
where the gravel spit your name
into the wind.

Let them tell the story of your hunger:
bottle caps twisted off with a grin,
late-night bar brawls where truth
spilled faster than whiskey,
first kisses you missed
but didn’t regret.

Let them be the fossils of the feast—
ribs cracked clean, laughter crusted
in the gaps where a molar fell.
Chew on the wild world,
bite down hard
until life cracks back.

The dentists sell perfection,
but man, we weren’t born
to be porcelain dolls.
We were born wolves—
crooked, snarling,
full of scars
and howl.

What’s the best way to spend $2? Well, I’m glad you asked.

Dude! I just made my first pecan pie!

The upside of spending Thanksgiving without family? Chicken and waffles instead of turkey and stuffing.

KEXP is playing every rendition of “If I Had A Hammer” and all I can think is I wish I had a hammer right now to make it stop.

My wife reminded me at dinner that when we first married I offered to “make chili”. We went to the grocery store and I picked up cans of hormel. She was horrified and I had no idea it could be made from scratch. #latchkeykid #momcouldnotcook

Is this the first *whatever we do on bluesky* to mention #WestonTX? (6th gen Westonite here!)

It’s a cold rainy Sunday morning. A perfect day for coffee and pancakes at a diner and then going back home to listen to Cocteau Twins and read books.
