friday random elevensies: “second vaccination” edition
So, I came to the realization mid-way through yesterday that I’ve been working way too damned hard the last two weeks. It’s true, I’ve been hugely productive at work, I’ve ridden a ton of miles on the bike, and I’ve even gotten a start on the Humdingers tracks I owe my bandmates down south.
That said, I am exhausted, drained, and all kinds of other words you might find here, and I am just kind of done.
So, I guess it’s probably for the best that I’ve got my second dose of Pfizer this afternoon.
Given the anecdotal evidence and what I’ve seen first-hand in others, it’s probably going to hit me pretty hard, so I’ve made absolutely no plans this weekend; I fully expect to be crashed on the couch or in the bedroom with a book or remote, Tylenol every six hours, and a beverage nearby.
Nothing at all wrong with taking advantage of the biologically-enforced downtime, and I plan on doing just that.
And honestly, that’s about it. Here are some tunes. Lots of 80s alternative interspersed with some neat other stuff (#13? amazing), an all-time favorite there at the end:

- “Randy’s Hot Tonight” – Electric Six
- “Post Toastie” – T. Bolin

- “21st Century Schizoid Man” – We Hunt Buffalo
- “Tattooed Love Boys” – Pretenders
- “People Who Died” – The Jim Carroll Band
