Just had Zyara for lunch and as always it is too good.

Remembering the time I eat edible underwear. They tasted like candy. Sorry, candy wrapper. Most troublingly, I can’t remember why I ate it.

There’s Magic: The Gathering players around, and I’m resisting the call. Must. Not. Fall. Back. Into. Another. Expensive. Hobby.

Had a lovely visit to Houston. Sad to leave my buds behind but glad to be back in New York. Itโ€™s cold tho.

Passed a shop in Houston with the motto: โ€œsmoke, vape, hookah, wellnessโ€

I went to a Die Hard watch party the other night with mostly folks I didn’t Know in Houston. One person out of maybe twelve hadn’t seen it. Very fun time. ๐Ÿฟ

Friends showed me Rebecca Black sung by Bob Dylan. It is Friday, after all. ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ๐Ÿ’‹

Did anyone else play Gorillas back in the day? Still holds up.

You ever get a random song stuck in your head, apropos of nothing? Today it’s Come Sail Away (with meeeeee lads).

I’ve been really addicted to Suika. It’s a falling fruit, physics-based puzzler, and I can’t stop playing.
