- Turning Point is fantastic, and I am halfway through 9/11: One Day in America. Maybe not the best idea for me to watch both right before I go to the Memorial and go to the top of the new building, but oh well. It's so strange to think back to right before the second plane hit to when I think most of us, myself included, really thought "it has to be an accident."
- The story of Brian Clark and Stanley Prainmath in the South Tower is incredible, and beautiful.
- Among other tourist activities in NYC, bf snagged tickets right behind the bullpen at Yankee Stadium for a night game. F the Yankees, but I CANNOT WAIT.
- Had to attend a children's birthday party this weekend, and kiddo's dad put roughly 47 Airheads in the goody bags that he shoved in our hands as we left so he wouldn't eat them all. They are objectively a garbage candy, since they're basically plastic, but MAN, probably a top 3 "trash" candy for me.
1. Sour Patch Kids
2. Airheads
3. Nerds
- In about 4th grade it was a badge of honor to eat Warheads, for some reason. As an adult, I tried them again, and boy. Not only are they not really that sour, they mostly taste like...nothing. Just garbage. They also become shards of sugar that slice your mouth to ribbons. 0/10.
- Will Levis is a phenom. Nothing insightful to add about his play, but what a beautiful thing to have a true THROW IT DEEP JARRRUDD guy out on the field again.
- I cannot stop myself from packing for trips as if I'm going to change clothes and/or **** my pants 8 times a day. I don't know why, as I haven't ever had an Incident which required creative use of a golf towel or anything. Just a suitcase filled with drawers.
- I drive a very reliable vehicle which is now 10 years old. The greatest first world problem/white person problem I've had in 2021 was last week, when the aux port completely died. Turns out, they do still make those little FM tuners you can plug in the cigarette lighter, so there's that. #theunsmuglife
