I've had some songs by Margo Guryan album Take A Picture stuck in my head for a week or two now. If I had to describe it, I'd say it's kind of like bummed-out sunshine pop.

Besides the amazing songwriting, I am a huge fan of the drum sound on this album. It's nice and roomy but kind of dry and thumpy at the same time. The drummer, Buddy Saltzman played on some pretty big hits from the 1960s.

I was very surprised to find out this album was recorded in 1968 for some reason. I think the combination of an aggressive drummer on a twee sounding album is something I associate with indie rock from the last couple decades and not the 1960s.

I am really into the Apple Pencil gesture of scribbling to erase text. Beside converting handwriting into text, scribble erasing is the magic of the pencil. I can probably type a little faster on a keyboard but I can delete things so much faster with the pencil.

I had a dream last night that I couldn't find where I parked my car. You'd think your
own brain could serve up some cool dream instead of something SO mundane. My
brain could have had me traveling in foreign Lands or talking to Einstein or Buddha or
someone.

Nope...my brain had me walking forever looking for a parking spot.

When l woke up， my first reaction was to write a Workflow workflow to remember the
spot you need to remember.

It is nothing fancy but it does the job. It gets your current location, adds the address to
a new note in the Notes app, and then save the location to a file in Dropbox as a back
up if you accidental delete the note.

It's the day after thanksgiving. I practiced some CSS grid, ate shio ramen at Ramen Kazama, and went to a punk show at the Eagles Club. The perfect day after Thanksgiving.
