Weather or not

Pretty autumn day, great weather, although very windy, as it usually is in Chicago this time of year. But all of the sun made it nice.

I'm a bit sleep-deprived. Had a surreal dream last night where I had acquired a Sly & the Family Stone picture holder, one of those multiple-frame holders, and this one was festooned with silver glitter and other brightness, and had pictures of Sly featured. I remember in the dream thinking that was pretty great, touting it as the funkiest frame, ever. And it came with a bonus Sly lapel pin.

What a goofy dream...

Guilt by Association

I swear, The Association might be the most evil band in pop music history. It's bad enough that they did "Cherish" (among other smash hits of mawkish sunshine pop) but they also did this one...

I am so going to write a scene in a story where something absolutely horrifying and/or terrible happens to a character while that song is playing. It simply must be done.
