It’s lovely, but the rednecks in powerboats and jet skis are making it tough to completely enjoy. I expect it will get worse as the weekend progresses. Lots of awful country music being blared at top volume too. It’s basically hair metal with a twang. Butt country. Sugar country. Much closer to Def Leppard than Merle Haggard.

Belligerence is a virtue out here in rural Texas.

Anyway, related to that, this morning I remembered that, because for the longest time I'd heard "Eminence Front" only in snippets, in passing, I never recognized it as a Who song and had assumed the chorus was "Everybody's Butt".

Like until my mid-thirties.

She’s also an aspiring songwriter and wants me to hear her lyrics about her recent breakup. Sometimes she sings me the song. Cringe.

I understand the pandemic has been hard on gen z, but I’ve had to do a lot of playing therapist to my younger workmates, and I’m reaching the end of my rope.
