For 11 straight days now, this one beautiful bluebird has been visiting my window 🐦💙 I looked it up, and apparently bluebirds are a symbol of joy, hope, renewal, and prosperity. He just shows up, sits for a bit, and somehow makes the whole day feel lighter. Also… he’s ridiculously cute.

Hard to put into words what Ozzy Osbourne means to me. In college, every week at WATC, I’d start my radio show with “Iron Man.” That massive riff was my ritual — a signal that it was time to get loud, get weird, and lose ourselves in the music. Grateful for the madness, the magic, and the memories.
