Wise Madness
I’m doing something foolish. I’m writing this while watching NASA TV; the Perseverance rover is landing on Mars. There’s nothing to see but simulations but I’m still enthralled. Sputnik was launched two and a half months after I was born. I’m the same age as the Space Age. Spaceflight is in my cohort. The parachute […]
I have been working on my procrastination skills all day today but have reached the point of diminishing returns. It’s time to work on other skills, like blogging. There is nothing like waking up at 5:20 in the morning with bathroom issues and then wanted to say up until six to post the WFUV Question […]
Yay, I overcame lethargy and I’m writing for the first time in days. That was tough. Yesterday I went on a shopping adventure to Aldi. This directly led to an idiot story. I prefer going to Aldi on Sundays because that is the only day that the BX1 runs local; to bus stops a block […]
I’ve managed to start writing at 11 AM even though I had breakfast first. This is a new development. I made the one-pan egg, ham, and cheese sandwich. I haven’t made that for a while. That’s because I haven’t had the good bread in the house. I still don’t, but what I have is at […]
I started writing an hour and a half ago. I said I was going “old school and blogging before breakfast and coffee.” As soon as I wrote that I craved breakfast and coffee. Food and coffee win most arguments with me. I had sausageeggandcheese on naan and donuts for dessert. When I have it on […]
The path I followed was the human discomfort with chaos, and our preference for unfounded explanations over no explanations.
Yesterday I was a real American, I watched the Super Bowl. I timed things well. I sat down to eat dinner as Amanda Gorman was about to read her poem. She has become a celebrity poet. Have we had one before? Maybe Robert Frost but I was too young to remember that well. The Super […]
It’s Super Bowl Sunday. Does that mean I should write about football? No, it doesn’t. I got tired early last night, I thought of going to sleep before 11 PM. I didn’t because I wanted to record Gord’s Gold first. Why didn’t I record it then? It was too loud. I was waiting for things […]
Yesterday’s adventures revolve around my infusion. The car service arrived early so I rushed to get down there. I didn’t forget anything, but I did overdress. It was quite a bit warmer than I was prepared for. I never zipped up my jacket or wore my hat and gloves. Medicaid provides the car to take […]
The heat was out again; this time I didn’t wait, I put on an extra hoodie and warmer slippers. It did not reach mukluk cold. Now the heat is back, and the extra hoodie is off and I’m debating putting on my regular slipper socks. My toes are on the edge of being too warm […]
