Regrets

I really need to learn to just go to things, even when I'm tired and cranky from work. There was a book-release party last Tuesday for the @MayorEmanuel book at the Hideout (♥), which I'd planned to go to and then skipped at the last minute. But, since hindsight is 20/20 and youtube makes an excellent telescope into last week, it became obvious to me today that I really should have gone... (though I guess watching videos afterward is the next best thing. Nothing like a reading complete with meta and verbal footnotes! And, in case you didn't guess, copious swearing on the part of our imaginary alter-mayor, for anyone in public or semi-public spaces, or who doesn't like swearing). Also highly recommended is Jeff Tweedy's deconstruction of "My Humps." I ♥ the things this city produces. (Even if it does currently smell like burning because of Minnesota.)

I am so going to try to nominate @MayorEmanuel as a fandom for this year's Yuletide.
