Did some general housekeeping shit in the morning. Also, somebody after the concert had told me I should check out the songs of John Prine. I’d heard some of his, but spent an hour going through them on Ultimate Guitar, where I get my guitar music sheets. No. I can see the relation in style, but No. Only one I recognized from the rad-io was “Illegal Smile“. That’s typical of most of his songs, silly word play mostly. Some of them are real downers, like “Hello in There“, man I wouldn’t sing that to a Channing House crowd.
At 12 met with Jerry and Betty and new-ish residents Dean and Ellen. Nice lunch. The dining room was maxed out with tables full of families, it being Mothers Day. Extra nice menu, mimosas or champagne.
In the afternoon I was responsible for bringing in pizza. This was one of the holidays where the dining staff gets off early, and supper is a picnic. Rather than get the usual sack suppers, the 6th floor voted to have pizza instead. I met the delivery at 5:30, five large pizzas, and 15 of us chowed down in the floor dining room.
