(He/Him) Mostly just a guy who likes watching and making movies... and sometimes I talk about them at oneofus.net.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Got Middle Kid's tire replaced. 2) Heard a poet read some work aloud via a Zoom reading. Known him for years, never met him, never heard his voice before. Sometimes the Internet is a dumpster fire. Sometimes it's a bright light. 3) Beef Stroganoff for dinner.

Today's 3 Good Things: Man, today was a roller coaster... 1) Middle Kid's car finally sold. 2) Youngest Kid's Car didn't need repairs after all. 3) Finally got confirmation on time for closing on Mom's condo...

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Mom's storage unit is mostly cleared out. 2) Late burrito/quesadilla lunch with Spouse. 3) New episodes of 𝑁𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑦'𝑠 𝑁𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑂𝑛 𝑅𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑜 and 𝑉𝑎𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑡 𝐹𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝐷𝑖𝑠𝑐𝑢𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠 dropped on khoifm.org

Today's 3 Good Things: (10/28 edition) 1) Watched 𝑈𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆ℎ𝑎𝑑𝑜𝑤. 2) Got Middle Kid's car from shop & returned to them. 3) Youngest Kid & I saw 𝑁𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑂𝑛 𝐸𝑙𝑚 𝑆𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑡 (Boot Leg Film Collective Edition) at Fleur Cinema. 20 teams did 20 scenes from NOES & Frankensteined them into a feature.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Got new key cut for the car Youngest Kid drives (after the only key got lost this weekend. 2) Oldest Kid got pizza for dinner. 3) Watched 𝐻𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑧𝑢𝑠𝑠𝑎 because it's that time of year.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Made green bean casserole w/Spouse. Around here, when it gets cooler, it's usually "casserole weather," rather than "soup weather." 2) Got a start on editing the next radio show episode. 3) Watched some vampire art films (𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑅𝑒𝑓𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑆𝑘𝑖𝑛 & 𝑁𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑎) because it's October.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Dr. appt. 2) Dropped keys & signed last paperwork for selling Mom's condo. Now, I have to wait for closing, then that chapter's done. 3) Saw Youngest Kid's performance in DMACC Ankeny Theatre's production of 𝑆𝑝𝑎𝑖𝑛 by Jen Silverman.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Took Mom to an appt. signed some more docs for the sale of her condo, and helped her get groceries. 2) Recorded a review for 𝐻𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑜𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑟𝑖𝑜𝑟 for @oneofus.bsky.social. Should drop soonish. 3) Managed to get Middle Kid's new (to them) car registered in under an hour.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Cardiology appt. Clean bill of health, in as much as I can get one, (but got confirmation that getting additional tattoos is discouraged.) 2) Helped a friend self-record an audition. 3) Oldest Kid brought dinner home.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Helped Middle Kid at their vendor booth at Ames Pride. 2) Picked up some books from the Ames Library Book Sale. 3) Had an amazing, and probably really bad for me, breakfast bowl from the nearby farmers market.

Today's 3 Good Things: 1) Therapy appt. 2) Middle Kid stopped by. 3) Sushi followed by Oldest Kid's band performing at their first Open Jam (Their first public performance.) They kicked ass & got asked to play an extra song.
