Cormac McCarthy’s book, Blood Meridian, inspired Ben Nichols to write an album about many of its characters and landscape. There’s a longer video of him performing the entire album, along with a professor giving a talk about the book, but I love this clip of him performing one of the main songs.

Currently living my worst nightmare…does anyone have a good lawyer for tenant cases? #ugh

Reached over 90 workouts in 23 weeks since starting this whole ‘don’t die super young’ thing. I had a rough couple of weeks doing the bare minimum and really had to talk myself into working out today. I’m really glad I did. My legs are on fire but my mood is already brighter. Proud of myself, especially when I feel like I’m ‘failing’. Just trying to remember this is a forever thing, not an -until I reach my goal weight- thing. Let’s get to 100!! @joinladder #workbitch #movingmybodydaily #whydomykneespop #over40andfab

Ellie’s first day of seventh grade!!! She let me do her hair, I can tell she’s so excited but slightly nervous. I’m so glad she has good friends joining her at the new school. The vibe on her new campus is so great. I hope our kids have a safe and exciting first year of middle school.

Wanted a fun fall film.

So excited to see this one on vhs

Rewatching this one… but this time on VHS

First thoughts

We found it on VHS and now we’re home and watching it.

I’ve been waiting since I was a teenager to watch this one! So excited.
