Wise Madness
Today was my first day of school. How’s that for not burying the lede? School is starting slowly. Today was orientation. That meant I didn’t have much to do, I just learned my way around and met my colleagues, especially my co-teacher. This is a new experience for me. For now, at least I’m not […]
No, I’m not dead, kidnapped, hospitalized, or abducted by aliens, I just haven’t blogged in days and days. I apologize. I had good reason for not blogging at the start. On Friday I was a daredevil. On the way home from my walk I bought corn on the cob from a pop up stand on […]
I’ll start with the easy stuff. I went to last night’s Mets game against Colorado. I had a choice of games and chose this one because the greatest pitcher on the planet, Jacob deGrom was pitching. If I could I’d see every deGrom start. Each one can be a gem. Jake only retired the first […]
If I’m going to procrastinate I might as well, do it writing. Not going out much is tough on my writing muscles. Maybe I should entrap the muse Calliope and force her to give me inspiration. That’s a Sandman reference but it’s deeper as Gaiman was referencing me. Madoc is the character that holds Calliope […]
I’m once again trying to write while watching the Mets. This will happen more often as I start my new job. This is a tough Met game. They fell behind 4-0, tied it up, now just allowed a three-run-homer to fall behind 7-4, It’s only the fourth inning. Fasten your seatbelts, this is going to […]
Let’s see if I can brain juggle, watch the Mets on TV, and write at the same time. I’m starting during a commercial to give myself a running start. What exciting things did I do yesterday? Nothing. I stayed home and watched the Mets. I considered going to Brooklyn to see Dayna Kurtz. I haven’t […]
Today is not going as smoothly as yesterday. I stayed in bed an extra hour and I’m not blogging until 1:30 PM. On the bright side I made French toast for breakfast and watched the first episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. It didn’t sound exciting to me but that’s what I thought of Wandavision […]
Last night I saw one of the best concerts of my life, Talisk at Rockwood Music Hall. It was so great that instead of my usual clever opening that buries the lede I put this right up front so people seeing the preview will read this. It’s imperative that everyone that loves great music know […]
Mea Culpa, I’ve gotten terrible about updating. The last two days I found myself in the land of the lotus eaters for hours in the morning, the hypnopompia. This is why I have never used drugs; I have an addictive personality. It is so pleasant that I can’t tear myself away. I’m on a run […]
Last night I went to a concert, that’s not unusual. What is unusual is who I saw and where I saw it. It was Elvis Costello at the Pier 17 Rooftop. Me seeing a dinosaur of Rock and Roll not named Richard Thompson? Yes, as much folk as I listen to, I’m still a rocker. […]
