i'm thankful that when i got outside yesterday morning and pushed the mower into the back yard, i realized it was probably wetter than it should be to mow, but it still seemed like a judgement call and not that it was definitely too wet to mow, and i wanted to mow, as i told you then, and so i did. i'm thankful that though the grass was clumpy and the dew soaked through my shoes, the mower kept mowing and i was able to do the whole yard without issue. i'm thankful to have found that it takes just about an hour to do our whole yard, and i'm thankful for the neatness of that (and, now, for the neatness of our grass).

i'm thankful for that music and also for other music i've enjoyed that is looking forward instead (and for music that's somewhere in between, like the snail mail album). i'm thankful for tongue by anenon, which is ambient saxophone over reichean synths and field recordings. i'm thankful for both by okay kaya, for the undeniable metaphysical ASMR gentle banger about IUDs, "IUD," though i think my favorite is "dance like u." i'm thankful for the dm discussion i had with work friends about carly rae jepsen which reminded me of how much i have come to like her, even though i really didn't like her at first.

i'm thankful to have watched a vine compilation yesterday evening, as i do many evenings. i'm thankful to have also read these three pages of copy about the "fountain drink" option at taco bell and to have decided what i think true wealth would be. i'm thankful for art school stories and for talking shit with friends. i'm thankful for this message on the voyager record. i'm thankful for underfilled moments.
