Blessed boredom!
As a teen, I had no iPhone, no social media. I spent hours listening to music, reading, learning how to play my favourite songs, thinking about God, staring at the ceiling feeling existential. It was the making of me. I pity a generation deprived of that blessed boredom.

He used to be in a band, and thus found his way to Porter’s Call. 10 years later, Cody Pellerin is opening @AmericanoLounge, 434 Houston St., #120 in Nashville. The Grand Opening is this Thursday 10/25. A percentage of the proceeds are going to @PortersCall! Please Retweet!

A prisoner will be electrocuted tomorrow night in Nashville in spite of pleas of commutation to life from the jury who convicted him, a victim's family, & the former warden & prison officials.The Governor & State Supreme Court refuse to intervene. A shameful day for our state.

To all the women this country for whom the Kavanaugh hearing is not political but historical, I grieve for the pain with which you have lived, and pray that this week, true justice will find its way home.

This from @HuffPost from #ArethaFranklin family: "In one of the darkest moments of our lives, we are not able to find the appropriate words to express the pain in our heart. We have lost the matriarch and rock of our family.”
At the end of a long day, what are you grateful for? How will you rest? Who will you love?
