Mick Jagger was an inspired choice to present Best Original Song.

Mia found a towel with contrasting color. It must have been placed for her.

I installed Civ 7 and started a game. It quickly became apparent I had no idea what I was doing. Very different than Civ 6.

everything is a garbage fire; you should absolutely buy the little treat at the grocery store

Chappell Roan using her moment to call out labels about providing health insurance, a fucking hero man.

My late wife just loves awards shows. She would watch the red carpet and all the pre-show stuff. Miss that.

We watched the 1992 Clint Eastwood western "Unforgiven". Amazing movie.

I decided to clean my new-ish Zojirushi coffee maker for the first time. The cleaning cycle runs over an hour! I just ran vinegar thru my old coffee maker, single normal brewing cycle. Thing better be really clean.

The son made Japanese curry. It was delicious and the entire house smells of curry.

I made Sausage and Lentils in the instant pot. The lentils turned out fine, but it was overall just "meh". Lacking something, don't know what.

To be a Vikings fan is to deeply understand disappointment.

I made gooey mac and cheese for dinner. Extra cheesy!

It was worth it. This is the replay but my kids were going bonkers live

My Gophers win the Duke’s Mayo Bowl 24-10 over Virginia Tech. Solid defensive effort.

Shh, it’s sleepy kitty time for Mia.

The bots following me on Twitter all posted with names or images of women. The Blue Sky bots seem to be more eclectic.

Watching my Gophers playing Penn State. Don’t think I’ve ever seen an extra point blocked and run back for a safety.
