That song was contemporary when I was in High School. Lots of little ditty talk after football practice.

I like my coffee but if I HAD to choose either coffee or tea , one of the other for the rest of my life - I'll pick tea. But not one tea - all gazillion types of teas.
Qotd: the only one I can think of at the moment Iis Costco "grass fed butter" their version of Kerry gold butter. I absolutely love it, it's extra creamy, and delicious.
FYI: I still haven't discovered how they feed grass to butter. I'm working on it. Lol.
I got my Pixel 7pro last week and I'm finally converted to it and Google Fi. Thought there were, and still are some issues, with the phone and the service. Ugh. Compared to Verizon, Google online help - so far - I would give them 1* out of 10*. Verizon- I used to have - they were almost always 9-10 out of 10 for help calls with their site. Now the Verizon local physical centers- when I had "a guy", it was great. Otherwise- not so much.
Google Fi have no physical location, at least in my area. I don't think they have any.
So far their chat - ease of use the site - is 1* out of 10. The 800# gets 3 points out of 10. They actually admitted not being able to help me undo or redo some of the issues I was having. The guy suggested ways to go around them... yea.. interesting..
My phone- ugh. I stoll need yo finish setting it up. So far, it's mute on texts and alarms. And I have set up notification tones. Ugh... so far I restarted it 3 times.
Today is my PM doc visit (I thought it was yesterday) and acupuncture.
I hope he can give me some trigger points shots. My sciatica is really screaming.
The good news is that last night I skipped the alcohol. And I was tired and in a lot of pain. But I took a muscle relaxant, some herbal stuff, some melatonin, and little bit of D8. The combination really helped me fall asleep even though in pain.
Today:
Liquids: Coffee, teas, water, electrolytes
L: maybe chicken if I can manage to have lunch before 1. If not, then I'll be eating meat sticks, cheese sticks in the car in between appointments.
D: either brisket r chicken with some veggies. Maybe an apple or strawberries as a dessert.
Exercise: running around crazy.... does that count?

I need to try that butter.

In my area it's in the green packaging. I bought it one time when there was shortage of Kerry gold. Now I get Costco's unless Kerry gold is on a significant sale.

Funny you mention butter. Friends told me if there is one thing you should put money toward is good butter. I bought a Vermont butter for Easter and as much as I do not eat bread I had to try 1/4 piece of the Easter bread and they were right it is lovely.
