I wrote up a bit about the condition I have, Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia; since I have come to realize how in the dark and alone some people feel when given the news that this condition affects someone in their life.

I don’t have a problem.
In two weeks I have to go to the Mayo Clinic but then I get a day in a half in Minneapolis. Already have tickets to a twins game.
Pretty damn excited to be in a real city for a change.

Taking Back Sunday in 2002 - some dude yells out "less talk, more rock". Adam hits back with "who has the mic asshole". Fun times.
Norma Jean in 2005 or so - I crowd surfed and got dropped for the hundredth time on the floor of Heaven at the Masquerade in Atlanta. I miss that place.

Wonder how much money the city and WeGo are leaving on the table by not having benches at bus stops that can show advertising. Or weather sheltering that can show some ads.

Tennessee has proposed renaming the Nashville airport after Dolly Parton
Of the 523 airports with scheduled passenger service in the US, 119 are named after a man. None are named after a woman. Dolly Parton would be the first.

I’m one of millions of people whose children got used to books from Dolly showing up in the mail. They knew her because of that long before they knew her incredible songs and they loved her for it. You can donate to her Imagination Library here. donate.imaginationlibrary.com

Finally DNF'd a book. And it's a doozy because I couldn't get into "Catcher And The Rye" by J.D. Salinger. 3 chapters in and it just didn't hook me. Do I need to go a few more in to get hooked or is it just what it is?
