Atlanta. Food. Guitars. Auto racing. He/him.

I have decided since I'm generally stay in/don't have any SB parties to go to that I'm going to be Philly as hell tomorrow.

We're making red gravy.
Stop trying to make Kennesaw State Football a thing. You do not know what you are doing.

Holiday party for wife's work party fit. I did tie my tie on the short-ish side, but the hand holding the phone is covering some of it and making it look shorter than it is.

Just learned from a guy working on opening a jazz club im Decatur that the reason Brew and Bird (best wings I've had in Atlanta) closed is because Sam Yi died a few months ago. I wasn't there when he opened his first club, but that guy had stories and made some fantastic food.

So weird interpretive dance routine in Ghostbusters jumpsuits and leftover collars from a production of Hamilton? They did a good job I think but weird lull in a Christmas party.

Was it Ed and Indycar sanctioning body?

Let me tell you kids about another carpenter who wasn’t very popular with the authorities
Sabrina Carpenter made the White House delete their fuck ass tweet.

Also, I think several of my friends here have done a sleep study - being referred (in the middle for risk stuff, but enough to follow up at least) to talk to sleep clinic. Anything to know in advance or helpful things going in? Most likely it sounds like they start with at home before a night there

Had my follow-up and am up to 7G or whatever now. The nurse (super nice) was surprised when I told her because apparently you are still supposed to be able to walk in at KP places for a shot. And they don't actually care if you have a condition. You just say yes or no.
Fuck RFK. Finally had a break in work to get my shots this morning, and because of his dumb rock eating ass, Covid shot isn't a walk-in (though KP's website said different) and needs a nurse visit because you have to agree to some attestation.

So many reasons I can't wait until they're gone.

Good on me to finally get a physical and covid shot (since Kaiser is bowing to RFK) scheduled and WFH tomorrow before L's work Christmas party.

And of course I scheduled it for 1:20 and have bloodwork to fast for.

Absolute turnip.

I was 100% trying to remember Joe Ruttman, not David Reutimann, but ih well.
Annoys the hell out of Carlos Reutemann by calling him David Reutimann.

Before the current ownership ran it into the ground:

Clinton Deploys Vowels to Bosnia.
What is the quintessential Onion headline? The strong contender that just randomly popped in my mind is "Hank Williams Jr. Honored by Institute For Football Preparedness"

Finally saw the Benoit Biegnet thing, and it was delightful.

Just reposting a really neat photo that crossed my feed.
This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

Okay so more for about my top 20 listened songs, but some were because I was figuring something out on them.

Damn Steve Cropper died today?

Fine I'll put in my artist recap on the year. Probably about the least surprising ever.

Some jackass kid at Manny's is trying to do the Meg Ryan at Katz's thing for attention, and nobody is actually paying him any attention, and he's so desperate to get people to pay attention he keeps asking his date if he should try again.

I dont have too many thoughts about the CFP in general besides I dislike the format as a whole, but ND being ahead of Miami is turbo dumb.

Only voter 182 at Parkside for the election board runoff (because we are constantly having an election or a runoff in this state).

I never listened to him because by the time I'd heard of him, he was already a known POS, so.imagone my chagrin that on my random radio station Playlist on Apple, new song I really liked came on...and it was a Ryan Adams song. Which stings because his music I could see being extremely my shit.

It's probably been said, but Lane gives me evil Bill Nye vibes.

Stew today is interesting. Pork/chicken and ground beef. Corn, but no Loma beans. Lot more celery than I usually care for though.

Still pretty good for a kind of chilly Monday maybe a 6.5 or so.

No.

Splitting from my own thread, but the levels Halo and Attack on the Control Room from the original Halo are some of the best video game levels in this century of gaming.
