I've been spending the last 3 weeks in Tennessee while my 77 year old mother has been hospitalized with a bunch of medical issues she hid from me (I'm an only child), as well as discovering she's been the victim of two online romance scams that took all of her money and even more debt, as well as her now being diagnosed with dementia, and me turning 50 years old. It's been a hell of a month but along with the help of my adult kids, my girlfriend, and my chosen family of friends, I've been getting by. I've also been discovering a lot of my childhood mementos, like My Senior Memories Book and this page!

In a 3 week period in the fall of 1993 I saw Urge Overkill, Pearl Jam, Melvins, Primus, The Breeders, and Nirvana. It's no wonder my hearing's shot.
