from It's Thursday, Cate, #28 (October 28, 2016) It’s October, Cate, the season of changing leaves and apple picking and a crisp nippiness to the air and clowns terrorizing our nation’s suburbs and overall spookiness, and because we're filled with holiday spirit(s), we’re going to do something new with It’s Thursday, Cate, for the season: a …

Cate I know it’s getting close to college season, and I know such things are stressful, but I know you’re going to be okay and you’re going to get through it, and I know that because it wasn’t that long ago that I was applying for colleges myself, i’ve been there. As such, this week …
from It's Thursday, Cate, #22 (September 15, 2016) It's Thursday, Cate, and not only is it Thursday, it’s also New York Fashion week, Spring/Summer 2017, and I was there to report on it. You may be thinking, “Tim, no you weren’t, you’re in Scotland? There’s no reason for you to go to New York Fashion …
from It's Thursday, Cate, #21 (September 8th, 2016) I’m in Scotland, Cate, I live here now, it’s crazy. I haven’t been able to do very much, classes don’t start for almost two more weeks, and so I’m just kind of waiting, wandering around the city, missing you and everyone else and everything else about America …
from It's Thursday, Cate, #18 (August 19, 2016) Cate, you're back! You're here, at our house, upstairs! More than that, I am also back! Look at us. Life is good. And, Cate, you have a lot of things to reflect on from the summer, a lot of things to process, and that is why I …
from It's Thursday, Cate, #7 (June 2, 2016) Cate, I left this morning, I'm moving to Montana for the summer. Cate, next week, you're moving to Wisconsin for the summer. We're working at camps. Different camps doing different jobs, but camps. Montana and Wisconsin are both great. Some of my favorite states, no question. But …
from It's Thursday, Cate, #6 (May 26, 2016) It's Thursday, Cate, hi. I was just standing around in the kitchen yesterday afternoon, maybe you remember this, and I was wondering as I stood there what to write about in this newsletter this week. But then you came home wearing your Ft. Dodge Hide And Seek Team shirt, and inspiration …

from It's Thursday, Cate, #5 (May 19, 2016) Cate, as you're well aware, I'm back home again instead of at school, which is fun, and I had four of my wisdom teeth removed yesterday, which is less fun. I'm in some pain but not a lot and my cheeks aren't even that swollen, so, you …

from It's Thursday, Cate, #1 (April 21, 2016). It’s Thursday, Cate, hi. Have you looked into Chrissy Teigen’s cookbook much? I assume you have. It seems right up your alley. In this mini-interview with Bon Appetit, she talks about loving Taco Bell and White Castle, and it’s just terrific. And, Cate, it got me thinking. …
Cate, I've heard you're not feeling so great, and that's just a bummer, no other way to say it. From what I understand, you think it might be tonsillitis, it might just be strep, or a cold, who knows. But Cate, I heard "tonsillitis," and I ran with it. It brings us to this week's …

from It's Thursday, Cate, #2 (April 28, 2016) It’s Thursday, Cate, hi. Cate, on Saturday I’m driving up to Iowa, where you live (and I also technically live despite not spending all that much time there, relative to how much time I spend in other places), and driving up to Iowa is ten hours in …

Yesterday, the day I meant to write this post and make this playlist, I made some important headway on my application to study abroad in Scotland this fall. It might be the University of Glasgow, it might be Aberdeen (it also might not happen at all, but we're ignoring that). I've got Scotland on my …
This week has been about two things, for me. The first is the ever-escalating stresses and pressures of taking 18 credit hours. A bummer, but nobody’s making me go to college, and I’ll be d*rned if I don’t get educated while I’m here. The second is the TV show Mozart in the Jungle. It won …

I cleaned my room for hours Saturday night, finally calling it good at 3:45 am. I wasn’t especially focused for much or all of that time, I had three years’ worth of magazines to flip through, after all, but it did take a long time, because I finally had the energy and commitment to find …
The idea of Charlie Brown skateboarding is silly and utterly cool and completely captivating, and I couldn't be more pleased with my new pin that shows exactly that (he looks like he's mid-nollie kickflip, but who can say for certain). And because the idea has been at the front of my mind all week, that's …
Two of my cousins were at the Vikings-Seahawks game a few weeks ago, the coldest in Vikings history and 3rd-coldest all time in the NFL. I was in St. Paul the day before, even out for a run, and I’ll confirm that it’s unpleasant to be outside when the air is -1º Fahrenheit. But they …
For my birthday last week I got a denim jacket, and I don't know if I've gone a day without wearing it. Today I spent somewhere near twelve hours on the road. I'm feeling like black coffee, motorcycles, the American West. That's what I'm thinking with the outlaw playlist. Listen to it the morning after your …
Last night my mom asked me what I was most looking forward to about going back to school, a ten-hour trip I’m taking in two days. Fast internet was definitely one. Coffeeshops. All the mail I’d missed over the past month. My own room and bathroom. When I finished my list, we noted with some …
