Some Stuff. & Some Things.
>>Did you know I basically live for music? I’ll admit I like love that pop junk, but my heart beats for independent artists and singer songwriters. But in all honesty? I can find inspiration in pretty much any song if I listen to it in the right way. Have you seen this yet? Chase Holfelder has started a youtube channel devoted to taking songs in major (which typically sound happy) and changing them to minor (which sound sadder). His rendition of Girls Just Want To Have Fun is hauntingly beautiful.
>> No one warns you for this crap. You spend all this time developing friendships when you’re young that you just kind of bank on staying strong into adulthood. Isn’t that kind of the point? You do all the young and stupid stuff together so that you have someone to reminisce with when you’re too tired old to do all that young and stupid stuff. But what people forget to prepare us for is that sometimes we change. I don’t know exactly who’s to blame, but it’s always a sad thing when you wake up at 28 and realize the people you once relied so heavily on are people you hardly know anymore.
>> Campbell has their first football game tonight!
>> I’ve been watching Last Man Standing on Netflix the last few weeks. It’s definitely not a show for everyone (especially if you’re easily offended), but I just love it! It’s fun and light and kind of makes me feel like I’m hanging out with family at the end of the day. Okay. I might be a little crazy. Whatever.
>> One of my favorite snacks is homemade guac. Have I ever shared my recipe here? It’s easy and certainly not original, but here goes:
- 2 avocados
- a few slices of a yellow onion
- 1 jalapeno (remove ribs if you’re not into spicy. I usually remove the ribs from one side)
- Juice from 2 limes
- a little cumin (like, a teaspoon or less but varied for your taste)
- salt to taste
Alright friends. I think that’s it for today. Happy Thursday.
