After a week like this one it’s not easy sittin here on deck without thinking there’s somewhere I gotta be tomorrow. But, I don’t so fuck it. A round of Bulleit Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey and a World Party tune I haven’t heard in ages. The footage used in the video from seven years ago (posted to YouTube on my birthday in 2018, I see) is still definitely appropriate although it could be updated just a smidge.

Holy crap. Is there anyone Dolly Parton DIDN’T end up collaborating with musically over time? I realize this is based on the album track from 1985 and not a new song at all but damn if Dolly didn’t sound pretty good here.

Four hours of county and town board meetings, an hour on the road, two or three stories turned in with something like (checks notes) six others to do for this next edition. It’s raining but the umbrella’s up and dammit, I’m gonna take a bit of a break and rock.
