Wow, Haim is back, didn't expect new music today, right now.  

Today, I went back to a place where something traumatic happened to me (and it wasn't high school or middle school that I'm talking about).  It was pretty hard.  Managed to get through it.  

Haven't heard one from this guy in a while.  Storms.  Again.  But nothing compared to last week, so far.  

I think this is her American tv debut.  

I have vivid memories of this guy that my friends and I referred to as druggy Dave.  He served us food at Quiznos on my college campus.  The guy singing this song really reminds me of him.  Pickles and banana peppers on my mesquite chicken sandwich, please! They actually called it a skeet sandwich, which actually means man juice, but they didn't realize that! One skeet, coming on out! You can pick it up by the register!

Damage done to my dad's office building, due to the latest terrible storm.  

A heat wave has hit the area.

It has been quite a week, with the president telling certain congresswomen to "go back where you came from."  The awful significance of those words is not something to be ignored.

A visual of a puppet to go along with this very welcome new music from (Sandy) Alex G.  

The Vivian Girls, who broke up a couple of years ago, are coming back with new music.  I interviewed them about ten years ago.  Times have changed for me, but new music is still welcome in my life.

 A new video from Ariana Grande.  

We lost Ross Perot today.  A man I remember as often-parodied.  

Oh, how I love my grandma. 

I've been enamored with everything Bat For Lashes (Natasha Khan) releases.  

In other news, if you're selling veggie burgers in Mississippi, it is now illegal for them to be branded as veggie burgers.  Now, they're just known as "not burgers".  You'd best not call them burgers, or else you might get arrested.  It's sort of like the n-word, except it is racist to call a "not burger" a  burger.  So now it's either a "not burger" or a "veggie delight."
