Weird football game I’m watching…Seattle vs. Washington, and Washington’s QB used to play for Oregon.

The sound of ducks quacking in the distance always sounds like old men muttering to themselves. As an old man who mutters, I am well familiar with the sound.

Saw BACKROOMS for the third time last night and yeah, that one is sticking around in my head.

Even a lot of Indigenous names have banal meanings—my hometown, Tahlequah, means “two is enough” in Cherokee, allegedly three tribal elders were supposed to meet to choose a new site to establish a capital, but only two elders showed up.

Highly recommend reading poetry before bedtime. Helps your waking thoughts transition into sleeping thoughts.

Already spooky season around these parts.

Spending my morning constantly refreshing the websites for two different movie theaters, trying to get a ticket to a showing of THE DEVILS.

Drinking beer and reading Olivia Laing. Not the one about writing and alcoholism, thankfully.

Had the first signs of fall yesterday, on a hike in Beacon Rock State Park.

A forest trail covered in leaves, fallen from the surrounding trees.

Waiting outside the pub before it opens like some kind of alcoholic specter.

Just bought some binoculars for bird watching. Leaning into the whole “almost-senior citizen” concept.

This one hits hard, both the news and the poem. Jayber Crow is one of my favorite novels, one I revisit every few years. It gives me something new each time.

A few years ago it was R.L. Burnside for me, this year my big discovery looks to be Lonnie Holley. Saw him perform last night and am hooked.

Nice to hear a couple of Replacements tunes while waiting for this Bill Callahan show to start…

No cheating. Share the last photo of the sky from your photo roll.

This woman at the pub this afternoon said my voice sounded like Robert Wagner’s and I am going to hang on to that for the rest of the month, if not year.

I’ve driven past this one many times. Used to go through there while commuting to college.

Always makes me laugh when the jays fool the Merlin app. #birdsky

Display of birds heard on the Merlin bird ID app. There’s a Red Tailed Hawk but then a Steller’s Jay. The jay initially did its hawk imitation and then made more standard jay screeches.

Foregoing an employee appreciation picnic so I can be mostly alone in the office all day is so on-brand for me…

Saw this band live once, the same year this record was released. Big punk fest in Atlanta.

OK now they’re just overdoing it.

I imagine it as some goofy 80s style cartoon with Cook constantly bickering at The Hitchhiker and Leatherface as the comic relief.

A couple of middle aged women cackling loudly at naked Viggo Mortensen during the steam room fight scene in Eastern Promises. By the end we were all laughing.
