Alright this has been in my brain for a couple of weeks and so I gotta share it with y'all so it's in your brains too.

Consider it some headcanon you can use. Or a MMM bonus post.

One of the things at the shop I work at is the consistency.

I didn't use the word 'nice' there, 'cause it's a mixed bag. For example, I can always count on our customers not knowing how to park, I can always count of the boss taking in something dumb for us to work on (this week it was a Bobcat UTV). Maybe next week it'll be a jet engine.

I kinda don't write too much these days about going to cons, 'cause I'm always afraid I'll forget to mention someone I'd hung out with (literally I forgot one of my roommates at one con) and also 'cause I don't have the same con experience that y'all might expect.

But someone in some comment somewhere said I should blog about BABSCon, and also said that I should do it shortly after the con, so here we go! It's only a month after or thereabouts, I'd say that's 'shortly' after the con.

A pair of friends make maple syrup. It's surprisingly difficult business.

Last one for this year, I'm afraid.

I came across a fair bit of music thanks to George Collier, a YouTube channel that takes clips of performances and gives you the musical score underneath, often with humorous titles and almost always humorous musical notations.

Sorry about the delay

I gotta give a shoutout to AlwaysDressesInStyle for pre-reading, especially the last-minute stuff. I was going to hold off publication, but then we had a major storm bearing down on us, and I sent him a quick message "Tornado sirens are going off and the lights are flickering, I'm gonna publish now and make corrections later."

Bonus blog!

Since last week was a bit of a reminder of my days in band, I thought I'd share a couple of other pieces we played with you, and they both come with a bit of a story.

First up is Alan Hovhaness' Three Journeys to a Holy Mountain.

There are things we expect in music. Tropes, for lack of a better word (and there certainly is a better word; I just don't know it).

What those things are vary by culture, of course. When I posted last year about Bulgarian music, I mentioned how the harmonies were different than in Western music, and of course this holds true for all world musics.
