    who rememers the 38th week of 2023

    Why worry? Just exist!
    If you're feeling low we can do the twist!
    

    there were more strange motorbicycle scenes outside at 2am on monday night. lots of people rumbling around on motorbicycles out there in the street. some kind of motorbicycle drag racing event. and i am an old lady peering out at them from between the blinds.

    this week:

    • yoghurt meditation
    • coffee with and without eggs in it
    • dancing
    • you think i'm never lonely because i'm so cute and popular?

    i released an e.p. this week called field disturbances, it's available everywhere. it has a whole philosophical component to it that i haven't written down anywhere and i'm not going to start now.

    there's not much going on other than that. i just work and make music.

    in some ways this regularly blogging on a Sunday has backfired. i started it because i wanted to write on the blog more often. but if i look back a few years i used to write all kinds of different posts and now i save everything up for Sunday. eh, whatever.

    even if in a year or two
    someone drops a bomb on you
    you won't feel it on the scene
    think of the fun we can have in between!
    

    did you know there is a 3emdash and a 2emdash in unicode? look how long they are:

    • em β€”
    • two-em βΈΊ
    • threeem βΈ»

    going to go to bed at 9p.m. and get up at 5a.m. tonight, to see what that's like.

    in closing, here are the lyrics and chords to the song Greasy Greens by Pink Anderson:

    F                F6  F                 A
    Folks I'm just a man from New Orleans
    Bb               F
    Crazy 'bout them greasy greens
    A    Bb                  F
    If I don't get 'em three times a day
    [3 on d] [3 on d] [3 on a] [3 on a]  [4~ on e] [4~ on e] [1 on e]
    I'll     get      mad      and       walk      a         way
    
    F           [1^2 on g] [1^3 on b] [1 on e*]
    Them greens
    F             F7
    all I want my greens (they won't stop for the red light)
    A Bb            [2 3 on a] F
      Soft and easy            good and greasy
    [3->8 on a]                  [4~ on e] [4~ on e] [1 on e]
               Crazy 'bout them   grea     sy        greens
    
    Way down south where I was born
    They raised them good old green corn
    Sweet potatoes & Black eyed peas
    Green tomatoes and pecan trees
    
    But them greens all I want my greens
    Soft and easy good and greasy
    Crazy 'bout them greasy greens
    
    Mama you can cook your lima bean
    you can cook somethin I ain't never seen
    But Honey when you fix ya table for me
    Ah don't fix nothin but:
    
    Them greens all I want my greens
    Soft and easy good and greasy
    Crazy bout them greasy greens
    
    That meat you use must be fat
    Cook them greens so greasy like that
    If you don't use nothin but naturaline
    You can't cook no good greasy greens
    
    Them greens all I want my greens
    Soft and easy good and greasy
    Crazy 'bout them greasy greens
    
    I don't care what your mama don't allow
    Bring them greens here anyhow
    Soon as I get 'em, honey, I'll be gone
    Your mama won't know that you put them on
    
    Them greens all I want my greens
    Soft and easy good and greasy
    all about them greasy greens
    
    I see greens upon your shelf
    You must be saving them for someone else
    I hear hissing in your pot
    Honey, how much greasy greens you got??
    
    and them greens. all I want my greens.
    soft and easy good and greasy
    wild about them greasy greens
