dual personalities

I started writing this blog post about my annual reading of A Christmas Carol and how much I enjoy it. And then I remembered that I’m pretty sure I wrote that post last year. This is probably foreshadowing for Christmas morning and everyone getting something I’ve already given them.

I just got back from walking to my neighborhood wine bar to pick up my wine club wines and picking up a yummo salad at a neighborhood restaurant. It’s just like living in Brooklyn but people are nice to you.

As I’ve explained, the algorithm for my YouTube feed is totally bizarre because of my penchant for The Simpsons and videos about cross-stitching. And also because sometimes my mother and I drink wine and search for random 90s country songs like this. You’ve got to love that hair. I also accidentally stumbled down this rabbit hole that really makes me want to become someone who comments just to point out that this is a cartoon and not Shakespeare.

Anyway, the algorithm paid off this weekend when I discovered this terrific Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum video fundraiser.

It’s an hour and a half and it is great. Seriously, it is produced so well–it isn’t rushed but it moves. I also feel like it is all the cool kids–but they don’t make it feel exclusive. And it made want to go to Nashville. And, of course, Marty and his cravat are amazing. I love the Thomas Hart Benton painting that is a focal point in the museum. This is a real treat and I recommend watching it. Also, I wish I had Reba’s pants.
