I cannot imagine.

What an ending everyone must have felt. I mean: DEAD. There isn’t much more of a THE END you can give to a story than that. But on Friday, nobody knew about Sunday. Nobody knew that the story didn’t end there.

And my pop said that sometimes we are stuck at Friday, and what we need to realize is that Sunday is coming.

Oh God, I need Sunday.

I mean, sometimes I’d give myself a good Saturday-ish feeling, in terms of how I am doing. But a lot of times, I forget about Sunday. Today was a really good reminder.

Also, Isaac kindly requested that I record the duet Lyric and I had sung back in the fall, Lately Darling. So I did just now. You can listen to it, if you’d like, though I must say that I miss Lyric in this song. A lot. A lot a lot. Yes, I think I need to get back to California soon.

lately, darling

And because I was negligent in documenting the last time I mentioned getting out of bed with some mad bed head to show for my night, I decided I’d at least capture it today. Cause it was good.

And you’re welcome, Mandy Hornbuckle.

So this is what morning looked like.
And yes, bed head comes in many different varieties. Lately I have been showcasing the kind with roots.

And once I tamed my bed head with a headband, I went on a hike with some lovely people who share my last name.

Judah caught a frog. Or maybe a toad. I don’t think there was a final say, so they ended up calling him Frog-Toad.

And what a lovely little Frog-Toad he was.

And for a hot minute, Judes and I swapped accoutrement. He wore my pink headband while I wore his hat and it suited us well, I think.

Oh, and my brother and I stood on a log together.

And we talked about life and how good it is now, and how unbelievable it’s been and how, man, we’re not sure how we made it here, exactly, but it sure looks a lot better than we ever thought it could.

And we didn’t particularly mean the log, but we could have cause that was nice, too.

Oh, and also, you might not have realized this, but I have a fairy for a niece.

And the woods suit Cosi just fine, I think.

And then tonight Shane and I sang some songs at two different places and with the exception of me messing up just a few lyrics (sorry, Shane!), I think we did well. We added two new songs to our set, which is fun–and now this means that we don’t even have to play every one of our songs to fill out a set. We can pick and choose, which is a nice little luxury.

It was a pretty good Friday, I think.

Oh! except my poor brother and nephew wandered around Newark looking for us to hear us play and never did find us, which is probably not exactly how they wanted to spend their friday night.

So, except for that sad story, it was the kind of Friday that I didn’t mind at all.
