Do you all remember that Rebecca Black tune “Friday Friday”?

Mainly because it was terrible, and because she was a nepo baby with zero talent, and she was something like twelve years old at the time with no real reason to be making music, or music videos. We all recall the awkward back seat arm roll wave combo she did off beats 1 & 3. Too good y’all. Nice. Chef’s kiss!

I say that because, today of all days is Friday mutha fuqqa! And it’s getting hotter, and we are going beyond two weeks with no rain. It’s scorched earth out here folks. Withered leaves, dropping leaves, and tinder dry twigs for lawns. It’s a ghastly sight to behold. I fear for my over laden fruit trees. Those apples are small and dropping like malformed flies. Pity.

I had a weird dream that I was interviewing for my last job from ten years ago, and they were super proud to offer me the same wage I left at, and I was so disappointed. Killed the whole vibe. Which is weird I know. But things were really cooking, and I was all excited, and then I just stopped dead. At least I haven’t dreamt about being late to class, or sleeping through an exam in a really long time.

I also know that I am old because I no longer yearn to head back to university when September rolls around either. That desire took quite so time to get over. Longer than I’d care to admit. If I had lots of money I would go back to school, and take classes about stuff I’m interested in. Hands on with design,  ceramics, painting, sculpting, metal working, pottery, life drawing, animation, wood working. So many things I would like to brush up on, or get to the next level with. Not a reinvention of myself, but a further exploration of what I already enjoy. Maybe even an intro to manual machining, like milling and lathe work. Plus a stop off at fabrication too. Would be a tonne of fun, I think.

This short week has felt very long, extraordinarily long. Ciao Bella!
