Our rescue kitty-princess was named for this recording session of singer Cilla Black in the studio with composer Burt Bacharach at the piano. He's conducting an orchestra (mostly with his back, amazingly) and a trio of backup singers, producer George Martin in the booth.

The lyrics here are pretty great with at least one exception: you're not •nothing• if you're not loved. FFS, wtf.

Other than that, if Cilla Black wanted to sing the phone book I'd listen

I wish #Starbucks would update the chairs in their locations. The middle digs into my back and, probably #TMI for a lot of you, while my body has an overabundance of padding, there isn’t nearly enough in the posterior region. So, while I love to go there, my lower back is usually screaming at me by the time I leave.

Unrelatedly, my most recent bout of Archery Depression is over.

I had taken a lovely and loyal 53lb ILF recurve, tuned to precision with some .340 spine arrows, shooting so very nice, & decided it was time to:

As expected, said bow proceeded to shoot like a pile of moldy floorboards, and I was condemned to grief for The Bow that Once Was.

After much fiddling, my bow sings arrows again, and seems to have forgiven my recklessness.
