This morning #TheLa said she doesn't trust people over 6 feet tall. Then looked at me & said "except you"

Ended up looking through old songbooks with #TheLa this evening as she sang along.

Got to Madonna -- "This Used to be My Playground" reminds me of Twitter

Bougie me chose to order doordash for dinner for me & #TheLa this evening (see previous tweet about Old Southern Manhattan about why I'm not picking the order up myself). I accidentally allowed the "recommended tip" on the Door Dash order screen, and I feel like an absolute cheapskate

Fried chicken and biscuits

#TheLa thought we needed the entirety of the Bisquick container. So we will have LOTS of biscuits

Planning on kayaking first thing in the morning tomorrow (he says, one Manhattan and seven beers into the evening). It sounds like #TheLa is joining me

#TheLa revealed to me that her friends refer to me as The Son of Thor

#TheLa is a far greater legacy than all of that combined!

#TheLa: dad, how much legacy do you have

Me: outside of riding in an elevator with James Earl Jones, buying Stephen King a beer, playing bass with the Cranberries, and being Sarah McLachlan’s cousin? It’ll be defined by you, methinks

On the way home from flute lessons last week, #TheLa mentioned that her favorite childhood memory (not that she’s much beyond a child) was dancing around to me playing cartoon themes on the piano

I’ve introduced #TheLa to Wonderfalls

The T-shirt collection for #TheLa: Joan Baez, Parliament Phunkadelic, Nina Simone, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Fiona Apple, Nirvana, Green Day, The Tragically Hip

The other day, The NY Times Strands game was lyrics to Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody

#TheLa was absolutely insulted and angry that I mentioned she might not know the details of the song referenced

Yes, I have spent my evening watching Rocky Horror with #TheLa

When #TheLa was young, I would pack her lunch every day, and I always included some sort of dessert

Every day, she would find someone in authority to validate she had eaten enough of her lunch to warrant having dessert…

Me (driving #theLa home from school, watching a bunch of kids loitering in the middle of the street): kids are dumb

#theLa: you were once a kid

Me: yes, and I was dumb

#theLa: that hasn’t changed much

So #theLa just saw this picture for the first time. She giggled for a few minutes thinking “why did someone print out a meme?”

Before she realized that I’m the baby in the pic

#TheLa (at 8:30 in the morning): next time you go to the grocery store, can you get whipped cream?

Me: sure. But it’s firmly in the morning. What do you need it for?

#TheLa: I just finished the canister making my morning ice cream

#TheLa: I hate calling a flute player a flautist, because it sounds like “flatulence”

Me: what instrument have I been playing the longest?

#TheLa: the piano

Me: and what do they call people who play the piano

#TheLa: pianist. Wait, that sounds like penis. You’re a penis!

So #TheLa wants to binge watch movies made from Stephen King books this summer with me

I’ll see y’all in September

The yearly adding to the growth chart

#TheLa ….is where she was this time last year

But #TheLa asked me to help her collect comic books of a specific character. So we have a daddy/daughter date in the very near future
