Nothing Happened Today (Blogtober #2)

I’ve been busy at work, haven’t had time to do much deep thinking. Maybe some light thinking. Lightweight thoughts like, what should I have for dinner? My fridge is empty. There is apple sauce. I have two boxes of pasta I’ve been meaning to make. No pasta sauce. I’m hoping I can finesse with some tomato soup cans I have.

Victoria Monét is on rotation. I want to make a return to R&B in my life, I feel like I’ve neglected it so long in favor of Pitchfork bands. But I don’t want to hear anymore songs about Yeah Yeah Yeah my ex girlfriend made me a mess I’m stuck in my head I’m laying in bed my car’s got some dents etc etc etc I do not want to hear that right now thank you.

Also, Nao’s new album, Autumn, is phenomenal. I loved Burst. Rachel Chinouriri also deserves a shoutout for her new album, I think I spoke too soon. Ms. Chinouriri, you are in fact, a star!

I’m getting a new bass soon, I know I’m sort of in a kind of band that hypothetically plays rock music, but I would like a bass that sounds good for R&B. Smooth? Textured? I will have to explore, I wanted to go to the music store this weekend, but may delay that a few weeks, next weekend is halloween, and yeah.

I found my checkbook, I want to write everyone a check, but I forget this is real, actual money that would come from my account. Ha.

My wi-fi went out, and I was chewing out customer service a bit. Sorry to that guy.

It’s been raining. I think, yesterday, I heard hail. I can’t be sure. I got a weather alert, it was a loud beep! - scared me! Spend enough time around me, and you will observe I’m easily startled. When I was walking across campus, it was pelting down so hard, people were running to get inside. Others stood by the sliding glass doors, waiting for the rain the pass. I had my umbrella, so I strutted across without much worry, although the bottom of my pants got a little wet. I was craving a Bloom energy. Through rain, through snow, through sleet, I will obtain the Bloom. I tried Bloom sodas recently and it’s like Bloom energy without the energy. Maybe I can offset the unhealthy amount of caffeine in the energy drink by occasionally drinking a soda.

Do you think my bass teacher is mad at me? I no showed my lesson because I was busy with work. I feel bad!

Another no show: I was supposed to go to Sam’s Club, pick up my order, and get gas… I guess I’ll wait to my car hits E.

I’ve been trying to learn Cariño on my bass for months, but I’m stalling. I have to try harder. But who is my Cariño? People say my pronunciation of Cariño sounds like “Korean.”

I must convince myself: I am my own Cariño.
