Seanovan's Mental Journey into the Unknown

I'm an aspiring musician/singer-songwriter/composer/arranger/producer who is just looking to get by in life. I'm not the brightest tool in the crayon box, but I'm damn proud of where I stand right now.

Another @mealime meal. This time it was pan-fried steak with sweet potato mash and green bean. Bon appetit! #mealime #healthyeating #steakandpotatoes https://www.instagram.com/p/BqGdbaWg6ow/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=oinldamtkp2o

Tonight's dinner comes via @mealime. Sheet pan salmon with honey-Dijon roasted kale and potatoes. Mealime has been great with helping me plan some dinners during the week. The recipes have turned out great! Highly recommended. I also turned some of the leftovers into lunch for the week or dinners when I'm in a pinch. #mealime #healthyeating #kale https://www.instagram.com/p/BqDxpn8gCug/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3qt7ij5xclv5

It's National Cat Day, so here are a bunch of pictures of my wonderful feline friend, Baileys. The love I have for this cat is incomparable to anyone or anything aside from my family. I'm so happy to have her in my life. #nationalcatday #catstagram #myfurbaby https://www.instagram.com/p/BphQZdfg9Xx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nhophgwi5ghm

Though not ACTUALLY close enough to touch him, I'd say that 6th row was close enough. Had a fantastic time at the Cannery Ballroom seeing Passenger. 3rd time seeing him, and this time was definitely the best of all. Can't wait to see him again (hopefully next year)! @passengermusic @canneryballroom #passenger #canneryballroom #singersongwriter https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo6YEfqh5s3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1k1185ju34kbi

Obligatory new glasses photos. As the eye doctor asks, "Better 1 or 2?" #newglasses #firmoo #icantseewithoutmyglasses https://www.instagram.com/p/BoSUR1mBb-C/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dqa7dlvroqpg

I turned a @damn_delicious recipe into a meal prep! Teriyaki salmon and broccoli bowls! #mealprep #healthyeating #ilovesalmon https://www.instagram.com/p/BoFokH7BIJV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=50ekzxiyumiy

Mr. Peanut is impressed with this week's meal prep. Going vegetarian with a variation of @fitcouplecooks yellow fried rice. Added peas and carrots and scrambled a couple eggs to go in. The yellow comes from the turmeric powder. #mealprep #fitcouplecooks #healthyeating https://www.instagram.com/p/BnzI-KAhbGl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xggemz2ysf8o

Today was Slow Cooker Sunday, so to celebrate, I made Pork Carnitas (recipe via @damn_delicious). The broiler was also utilized for a few minutes, enough to set the smoke detector off, but I think they turned out alright. #slowcookersunday #porkcarnitas #mexicanfood https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnhj_ipBWVU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7iweqk0usl6q

This past Thursday night taught me something. I played Jammin in Jammies with the intention of finding out if playing out live was something I wanted to do regularly. And I know now that I do, one way or another. Big thanks to @meganbarkermusic and @jammininjammies for the opportunity to play with all the fantastic songwriters on stage. I can't wait to do it again! Photo credit goes to Steve Goldman. #jammininjammies #songwriting #livemusic

It's here. Tonight is my first major performance in Nashville since moving down here. @jammininjammies, over at Frisky Frog's on Demonbreun. The show starts at 7 PM, and I'll be one of the first ones up. I'll be playing a few of my own songs, including some written with my friend Cory of the Aglets. If you can make it, come out and show your support! If I like this enough (it's been 3 years since my last performance so things can change), I'll keep doing it! #jammininjammies #songwriting #nashville

For this pasta night, I tried a new recipe. This is One Pot Creamy Lemon Chicken Pasta with Basil and Peas. Recipe via @nospoonnecessary #pastanight #newrecipe #dididoitright

It's been a long time, but I'm back at it again with the meal prep. A repeat offender this week: black bean beef stir fry via @fitcouplecooks. #fitcouplecooks #mealprep #healthyfood
