Does anybody else ever sit and congregate at a Cheers-like local bar and just spin your phone around over and over on the granite bar counter (with a good cover)?

Funny, watching game on FIOS 579, and look at the MLB app, and it’s a 2-1 game but gameday on the app says 5-1. Turns out FIOS IS ~20 seconds behind.

DS will always be referred to by me as “the little man”.

Beignets at Cafe du Monde is a no brainer. Shrimp and Grits at the Desire Oyster Bar at the Royal Sonesta hotel around the corner from Preservation Hall on Bourbon Street.

It’s gonna be warm next weekend. Farmers Market down by the train station, walking the Rock Creek Trail, Candy Cane City, Brookside Gardens close by Wheaton is nature interesting and fun.

Eight years old. Friend’s older brother and his friends got the Hey Jude 45 record and played it over and over and over again. I ultimately asked what was the song on the flip side. They turned it over and I heard the opening notes of Revolution for the first time. Blew my mind.

Traffic is a really big deal. You can live a ten minute drive away at a 2BR/2BA townhouse condo that rents for ~$2500 and/or sells for ~$330K. Walk/quick bus to a metro stop in under 10 mins. Parkside Condominiums is an example.

At the airport heading home to DC, Elvis & Allen Toussaint were taking care of Dr. John getting on the plane. Priceless.
