In my feels today about Tracy Chapman performing last night at the Grammys, and how timeless Fast Car is (and how incredible she is), and yet how sad it is that the song is still so relevant, and how it's been co-opted as the rural white American anthem, and seeing her with Luke Combs was symbolic of the truths that unite us all and why can't we all just get along??? Idk. Whew.

I love Tracy Chapman and love that she is getting the recognition she deserves.

I love her. I can't quit watching clips of their performance last night. And while I don't like Luke's version of "Fast Car," their harmony wowed me.

I saw Biden won the South Carolina Democratic primary, surprising no one.
I also saw 45 is leading Haley in the opinion polls there. He is already insufferable, but if wins her state, it's going to ramp up even more.

I hope all of our CA friends are safe!!! It been a lot of rain so far these last 3 weeks. My area is supposed to get almost a total of 3” in about a day and a half. Which is a lot for so Cal. The rain is staying until Friday, I believe.

I’m not a fan of country music, but whenever I see what Luke looks like I’m always surprised because in my head he is Blake Shelton. Even though I know better.

I feel like the OC is getting the brunt of the storm. The new puppy does not like the rain or wet grass

We are getting hammered which I would normally not complain about, but we currently have no stucco on the back of our house or roof over the guest room and bathroom, so we have an atmospheric river both inside and outside of the house. Our poor GC has been at the house all morning securing the plastic and putting sandbags and dams and makeshift drains all around the house to try and keep the water out.

No construction, but I came home at lunch to problems.

I just found out our semi-local anti-school levy menace took a plea deal last night 🎉 His trial was supposed to start today. I'm sure it won't curb his shenanigans at all, but it couldn't have happened to a better person 🙃

My favorite part is that it's a unanimous decision. Ha.

I don't believe anything will happen to him, but knowing that his blood pressure is probably in the dark red zone right now is pleasing me.
