“To restrict your listening to English-language pop is like deciding to eat the same meal for the rest of your life.” - David Byrne
One of the books I picked up at the Chicago, independent bookstore Exile in Bookville was a slim collection of essays by Lenika Cruz about the K-Pop sensation BTS, On BTS.

We have returned home. The last two days were just one long day, the flight from Phoenix to Philadelphia was restless and without sleep. And yet, we have our memories and our love and a desire to push forward into the fall. There are so many more wonderful things to accomplish and to experience.

We ate with impunity. Burgers, tacos, a steak. French toast, desserts, many sweets. I would even finish her plate. I have no regrets about this. I maybe could have exercised more, but there was an awful lot of walking in dry heat. I did a very good job of drinking water, all the time, not too much at anyone time. The journey was good for my body.
Six AM is a good time to get up -- if I have to be somewhere by ten, at the earliest. But no afternoon coffee, that kept me up last night. I needed to push through the day, but the results were not worth it.

No, I did not even taste the Snickers. Don't do that.
