This morning’s soundtrack: The first seven songs from Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band’s Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour.
Ten days into her college life and this young lady is doing great! She’s made lots of friends, loves her classes and professors, and spends Sundays in The City with friends eating and shopping and seeing shows (today it’s Heathers). So darn happy and proud of her.
I’ve been mentioning this privately to friends for months now. Wary to post anything about it online because it’s a pretty big cart to drop in front of a midterms horse (need to get that horse saddled or none of this will matter).

Even in Saint Paul we live out of two houses (long story) and both feel like (and are!) home to me .
It’ll be interesting to see his thoughts as he writes more about this.

One of the frustrations people have with AI is that it is pushed at us all the time, in features that don’t need it. Technology this powerful should be mostly seamless, yet it’s so new that it’s put in places that are awkward or that increase friction.

More Small Project Week progress…
This floating shelf in the library was sagging forward. It’s straight now (sorry, no “before” photo):
Also, cleaned and reorganized the 3rd and final spice drawer (the worst of the bunch). Here’s a split before and after:
