Are you still preoccupied with 1985? Well then, have I got a DJ mix for you.

I made it for a family friend’s high school reunion in Scranton. So ensue silly “The Office” clip sometimes. But you know, all jams from 1980-1985. m.youtube.com/watch?v=LUGc...

I’m planning an intro to DJing teen event at the library and just being real mad about how much thought you have to give to OS, software, and hardware integration.

And how it’s hard to find clear answers about how to do basic DJ stuff with just a laptop + keyboard shortcuts / smart device.

I was so set on editing the podcast today or recording a DJ set, but I actually got pretty deep into the work / adulting brain and productivity and then I had to do something more passive (watch anime) for a while.

Ugh! Time is so hard and I’m so slow at everything!

Making the husband watch Haruhi Suzumiya for the first time (original airing order).

Pray for us.

Every day I wonder why I’m tired.

Once again I will get less than 8 hours of sleep.

Surely no correlation.

Watching Deca-Dence and thinking about how this is the most Pynchonian, well, shit, ever.
I just went from working on my own novel inspired by Bleach and climate change, to reading my daily quota of Gravity’s Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon, to reading Murder on the Links by Agatha Christie, and I think my brain might be broken now.

Me, like, 30 minutes ago: I’m gonna eat lunch and then do DJ practice/prep and read

Me, now, after eating lunch: did I just poison myself, why am I hella nauseous?

Whoops, my driveway is a sheet of ice.

Guess I can’t go anywhere today. How sad. Tragedy.

Millennial Christmas tradition can’t stop, won’t stop.

Merry Christmas. My tree’s vibes are “bought 12 years ago for $40, now too eco conscious to get rid of it and replace with a nicer one where all the lights work.”

When I typed “the usual” in a text to my mom, my phone autocorrected it to “the Usui” (main character of Maid-sama).

This is so rude, phone, I haven’t even talked about Usui in a hot minute (which is tragic, love the power couple).

Can I record another set and put out another podcast episode before the end of the year?!

(Probably not, but it’s good to have dreams.)

New mattress instructions: carefully remove from plastic with scissors

Husband: *cuts the mattress 3 times in like 6 attempts*

Me: are you just a moron? Do you hate mattresses? *takes scissors, cuts off plastic while not cutting mattress at all*

Today’s skate ‘fit.

Am I drippy by association?

Went to The Ave for Audien tonight.

Just getting in bed now (after 3am).

Worth it!

Watched the latest Spy x Family and the tension is KILLING ME (complimentary).

This whole season has been killing me. Damn. I cry, I laugh, I almost stop breathing from the tension.

I’m making a list of YA books, showcasing one book set in each state of America, and once again I am disgusted by how much space and air New York is taking up in the culture.

My brain: I would like to DJ and write and edit podcasts

My body: all I am is pain and you will lie down in a feeble attempt to make me feel better
