  2. This weekend I randomly decided to do a spring cleaning of my main personal email account. I'm hoping it will decrease just how annoyed I've been feeling every time I check it.

  3. I went to the Springsteen concert last night. The two papers had glowing reviews.

    It was ok. A good send off to a long career. It wasn't better than past shows. It wasn't particularly close.

    1. I was maybe going to go if I could score a reasonably inexpensive ticket but no luck. Also from video's posted on line, I think I would have had your same reaction.

      On Saturday evening I saw Titus Andronicus at the Turf Club. They are fellow New Jerseyites and could be generously described as a punk-like Springsteen. During the show my friend said, "I don't get why some people are spending $400 to sit 100 yards away from Bruce when you could spend $20 and get basically the same experience but up close." A bit of hyperbole, but he ain't that far off.

      1. I like Titus but their lead singer sounds a little like the lead singer of Lucero got really drunk in the studio.

    2. Thanks for making me feel better. Those paper reviews had me feeling like I missed some life-altering show. (I had also been looking at tickets up until mid-afternoon yesterday.)

      1. The reviews were really grading on a curve. Compared him to the Rolling Stones and Elton John, not artists in their prime.

  4. Back from LaLa Weekend with the kids, helping them pack.

    I mentioned that I had gotten light-headed Friday evening from giving platelets and plasma on Thursday. It lasted most of the day Saturday, so I wasn't massively helpful with the packing. Sunday was much better.

    And then we got birria from Bierrieria San Marcos. Oh, man....

    My diet resumes Tuesday.
