May The Circle Be Unbroken

Yesterday’s adventure was the penultimate Sunset Singing Circle. I had missed two weeks in a row, one week it wasn’t held and the next week I got sick; I needed my fix. Fred and I always eat at The View at Battery Park before the show; yesterday morning when I tried to make a reservation […]

I’d Walk Five Miles for Pub Fries

I left the  house yesterday! After two days inside I needed a longer walk, Krispy Kreme wouldn’t suffice. Instead of a Donut Walk™ I went on a Pub Fries Walk™ and grocery shopping trip. A week and a half ago I went on a Pub Fries Walk™ because Wendy’s had an offer on the app […]

A Mystery and a War

Buckle your seatbelts I’m about to get very meta. Yesterday is personally newsworthy because I did exactly what I’ve done the vast majority of days since March 2020, I stayed home. The news is that this is now newsworthy. For the last couple of months, I go out almost every day if for nothing more […]

Frodo and Sam Entering Mordor

Listen now to the story of Nine-fingered Frodo and the ring of Doom. Not quite, but you’ll see later why that’s a good way to start. Yesterday I went to the Yankee Game! You read that right; what’s next seeing Dawes? A friend had tickets she couldn’t use and offered them to me. I’m a […]

My Gut: literal and figurative

Guess who is having another intestinal obstruction episode? Come on guess. Nobody? It’s me. I woke up feeling fine. I was hungry and ready to eat. I got up, stopped at the bathroom, and boom, it hit me. It’s relatively mild but it’s still there. As this is two weeks in a row I think […]

Let’s start with an idiot story; you know why? I’m an idiot. This starts immediately after I updated yesterday. I wrote about how I had a lot of time pressure and had to get moving. I was good and went right into the shower so that I could take my Donut Walk™ and be back […]

Obama Translator

I have the same question as Sandy Denny, Where Does The Time Go? I know the answer, sports. For years I was a huge sports fan, Mets, and Knicks. When my life fell apart I kept my love for the games but could no longer watch them and went to far fewer games. There was […]

Remember Tulsa

How have I not written for three days? Sure, I haven’t done much but that’s no excuse. I honestly don’t know why I didn’t write yesterday. I just checked to see if I wrote something and forgot to post it, no, didn’t happen. The first two skipped days were because I was sick. I simply […]

Viscera vs Brain

Today’s plans are shot; I’m sick. I suspect it started as a reaction to something I ate that then triggered swelling in my intestines leading to an obstruction. I won’t give you the gory details, just that I’ve spent most of today sleeping and haven’t eaten anything. As you might guess that meant no Donut […]

Tidbits of My Life

I did not go for a walk yesterday and was sleepy all morning today? Is that cause and effect? Do I need my daily exposure to light? I don’t know and I don’t know how to figure it out. The sleepiness can also be from depression. In any even it’s better for me in every […]
