I stole toilet paper from the Schermerhorn Symphony.
I am trying an egg/mayo/olive oil hair mask for the first time.
I’ve got to go out tonight. I got invited to the symphony! Rachmaninoff.
But anyway… I hope it doesn’t make my hair look super oily for tonight. I’ll let y’all know how it goes.

I didn’t hear the news yesterday. But since half the people I keep up with on social networks play stringed instruments, it was the first thing I saw this morning. I never met the man.

I know this one isn’t five star, but I had to write it in about 10 minutes.
How’s it sound.
