Andrew is ‘playing’ along to ‘Two Weeks’. He taught himself ‘the lyrics’ and ‘the parts’ he’s playing … this really blows my mind since he just turned 3. I did not teach him anything, not directly, he’s only observed me (his dad) boppin’ to it in the car & stuff. Andrew is obsessed with Veckatimest, Grizzly Bear’s new album.

Oh my god, this video just about sums up everything that is good in the world. My life is better now than it was 5 minutes ago.

COOLEST THREE YEAR OLD EVER. In awe.

During the time that I was a staircase wit, I looked up the word STAIR in the dictionary: the first step is the STARTING STEP or CURTAIL STEP that can also be a BULLNOSE. HAND is the direction a stair takes at the first riser. The edge of a tread that projects past the face of the riser is called the NOSING. I already knew a number of beautiful words having to do with lubricated hydraulic machine parts: DOVETAIL, GOOSENECK, ACORN NUTS and EYEBOLTS. Now I was equally amazed at the poetic names of the stair parts, the beauty of the technical language. NOSING and HAND—so the stair has a body.
