You ever have a day that could be summed up by a single song?

Mine was this.

What was yours?

That sounds like you had a great day!

My yesterday was not so great, and I said some things I think I shouldn't have, and those thoughts keep going through my head. This song "Here Comes a Thought" from the show Steven Universe sums up what I'm trying to tell myself.

Here Comes a Thought

I often think of this song ("Israelites") in the morning when I have to go to work, which is entirely ridiculous, since I work a cushy, first-world job that I (mostly) enjoy.

I have a friend here who had this song ready and cued up for the day he got promoted: ("The Man").

And sometimes when I'm in a more properly grateful mood, I'll think of this song ("Our House").

I Love LA in honor of the Dodgers winning game 2 of the NLCS last night.

Being far away from home, Mark Erelli's "For a Song" has been in my head.

"Weathered stones
I fished out from some running mountain stream
yellowed books with dog-eared pages
wildflowers pressed between
postcards from every place where I lay me down to sleep
little souvenirs to remind you of me.

Oh the road is not your friend
it's just a means to an end
how I wish I could take you along
but I'll take it all on faith
you'll understand someday
why I did all I did while I was gone
for a song"

I've updated my "still going to work song" to

I've got Bills!

It's not really the theme song for the day, but I have the intro music for Gargoyles stuck in my head.
