Finished reading: A Wild Sheep Chase by Haruki Murakami 📚

…this was my first Murakami book and one of the first novels that I read cover-to-cover in its original Japanese back when I was still learning. I should also say I read the other books too (Pinball, Norwegian Wood) but those were the translated English ones…

Bird on a sign on Lake Eola in Orlando, Florida, USA.

a black bird with its wings spread, perched on a post above water. It looks like a cormorant, a type of water bird that can dive underwater to catch fish. Cormorants often spread their wings to dry them after swimming. The image has a lot of contrast between the dark bird and the bright water. It’s a beautiful and captivating photo

(Looks like Thunderbird iconography with its wings outstretched… AI image check says this is a cormorant, but not sure myself; I just saw a cool birdo doin’ its thang and 📸! )

Christmas hits my mom’s living room, 2023 edition

I really love how my mother spontaneously gets into the holiday spirit without fail every year and turns into a red, green, and garland decorating tornado. Instead of civil defense sirens warning you to take cover, you’ll hear Nat King Cole’s rendition of The Christmas Song. 🎄

Never work on anything while drowsy. I just spent 20 minutes making a sweet post about a new development where a tired 40 year old strip mall that’s ³/₄ parking lot is getting turned into a 200 acre dense sustainable affordable housing, parks and commercial development…

Nodded off, and deleted the damn post because my finger was resting on the Cancel button.

Steely gray skies in Tucker, Ga this afternoon while getting the last of the Christmas holiday shopping done.
