“The record you didn’t know you needed is what I am listening to in the other room.”

Faded concert posters line the dark walls. Wisps of incense smoke curl through the golden light. The mood is intimate, analog, and deeply atmospheric with rich sepia and brown tones against near-black shadows. | photorealistic | landscape

Earlier today I was sitting at my Mac working on Gina’s next podcast episode when I got a notification of a new email. I don’t get a lot of email and very little of it is actually important so I don’t know why I have notifications enabled, but whatever.

It was interesting though because it said Welcome to Woopra! Set up in 30 seconds and honestly my first thought was – what the fuck is Woopra? I have been working on this podcast for a while so it wasn’t something I just did, and it’s been a busy day but I was pretty sure I would have remembered signing up for something called Woopra! I never signed up for Woopra!

So I did a search through my email, and holy shit – I had signed up for Woopra. I just didn’t remember. How could I not remember?

Photo of email search showing two emails from Woopra Support received 17 years apart.

The earlier email I found was to let me know that mythermos.com has been approved. I haven’t posted at My Thermos since the Truman Administration.

I looked at the date and I guess I signed up over 17 years ago, and this is the first and only email I have received from them since – to Welcome Me.

I feel welcomed – wouldn’t you?
