  1. It's time I unmasked the benevolent stranger who alerted all those customers to the shorter line at the Target in Appleton, Wis. IT WAS I!
  2. Mom and I are entering our fifth big hour of Black Friday shopping, because... yeah, I have no good way to end this sentence.
  3. At Burger King outside Goshen, Ind. Best to stay on the outskirts of Goshen, lest the city's searing heat burn us as the sun burned Icarus.
  4. It's wise, before embarking on a 950-mile journey by car, to spend an entire soul-deadeningly long day packing everything you've ever owned.
  5. If I were a landmark on The Amazing Race, the roadblock would consist of finding 10 pieces of broken html in an ocean of music-related text.
  6. Tooth Fairy FAIL. Jonah has lost his innocence!
  7. No matter how many leaves have fallen, it just doesn't feel like autumn until the Badgers have suffered a nauseating loss to Northwestern.
  8. Have fun spending the next decade reading The Decade In Music, done at last: http://bit.ly/3on98k. Kudos to @nprmonitormix -- job well done!
  9. RT @StuartFowlkes: @idislikestephen @allsongs All Songs Considered just got a mention in a Jeopardy clue!
  10. My kids' love of the Up DVD has led to a sharp increase in the number of times I implode into blubbering sobs while walking past the TV.
  11. I am going to stitch this brilliant @monkeyseeblog post onto a needlepoint wall-hanging for the NPR Music offices: http://bit.ly/2rXm1c.
  12. ME: "Come on, Grace, I need you to put this on." GRACE: "I always have to wear *everything*!" That, little girl, is some creative self-pity.
  13. Can you believe that there are some who disagree with our picks for The Decade's 50 Most Important Albums? I am aghast! http://bit.ly/3OqYTU
  14. Working for NPR Music sometimes means getting to wax ecstatic about Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone": http://tinyurl.com/yjrlfyo.
  15. NPR's "Decade In Music" coverage continues with... a geeky chat about American Idol (http://bit.ly/3MAUeG), starring me and @monkeyseeblog.
  16. I've been happy with NPR Music's end-of-decade coverage so far. But this, by @douglaswolk, is especially great: http://tinyurl.com/yk9d7ao.
  17. And all trenchant commentary must include @monkeyseeblog running down 10 years of idiotic celebrity-endorsed products: http://bit.ly/2qTHv9.
  18. For two weeks, NPR Music is opening up a fire hydrant of trenchant commentary on the decade in music: http://twi.cc/Qqu5. Come join us!
  19. @JessicaSuarez Just a standard credit card. It's not punitive, nor is it illegal, but it's also legal for me to never bank there again.
  20. @sstaver I don't get what they gain from it. I'm just going to transfer the balance and never do business with Citibank as long as I live.
