New idea: I will play any song the kids want again as long as they shout, “can I get a rewind?!”

This one was intense.
Day 41
I’m happy not being a massive audiophile but sometimes when I don’t realise I’m listening to a spatial audio track on Apple Music with my airpods is disconcerting.
Day 40
Can anyone recommend a Ted Lasso podcast?
Day 39
Maybe make a change
Maybe do the opposite
Will that be the spark?
Got my mug of dirty, brown water ready for the season finale!
This article on words of Korean origin being added to the Oxford English dictionary is interesting.
The OED said the inclusion of so many Korean words was recognition of a shift in language usage beyond the English-speaking world.
It makes me think two things. First is that always have some Korean students in my class and have learned that some words in Korean are borrowed similarly, but said slightly differently, in a Korean style. Like helicopter. Which reminds me of a Mexican girl who when asked her English name would say her name fairly flat but if you asked her her Mexican name would say it completely differently. As well that in our bilingual family, we sometimes just use Chinese words when speaking English without thinking about it. For example 鸡蛋仔dan zai，which is a kind of waffle the kids love.
That’s three things isn’t it.
Fireworks. Love this one that Lyra took
Cheese coffee is back!
We went back again for breakfast. So spicy. So delicious. We got there just before it got really busy, thankfully.
Day 2: Dark
9 years ago, 7 years ago and this morning. ❤️
Where are the kids? They’re too quiet…
Oh, they’re hiding behind the sofa playing Mario Kart.
Touch - October Photo Challenge
Last teaching day in the old building. Next week we move into the new building.
The only thing worse than there being a giant spider in the office…
There not being a giant spider, anymore.
They must be here somewhere.
This is for @gaby
From Ted Lasso’s talk of fathers, rewatching Arrival and it’s part about children, the book [The Garderner and the Carpenter] that I’m trying to read and my own mental health this week. I’ve spent too much time thinking of myself, myself as a father, my relationship with my wife, our relationship with our children and our own children.
It has been overwhelming. It is overwhelming. It will always be.
Sunday.
