Achievement Unlocked

Yesterday was a stay at home day. Partially that was about making best use of my MetroCard. I’m not buying a monthly because I’ll be away for Falcon Ridge. Now I can buy a weekly and have it expire the day before I leave. I made myself a special dinner last night. The main course […]

Doesn’t Know Enough To Come In Out of the Rain

I’m trying something new, not forcing myself to blog in the morning. I was hungry so I ate first. When I eat I watch TV and got involved watching Doctor Who. Then I had Budgiedome business to take care of. Then personal business to take care of. Now I’m ready to rumble. Sorry, Kathy, I […]

The End of America at the End of the Day

Bienvenue à mes doux Lecteurs. I’m listening to Le Vent du Nord as I write and Google Translate doesn’t have Quebecois. I might have to turn this off or the entire blog will want to be in French. Le Vent du Nord is stupid good. Let’s see if I can get this written even with […]

My therapy homework is always to record my pieces for Folk Music Notebook. I always do it but it’s always late on Thursday night; I have therapy on Fridays. The next step is not waiting to the last minute. Procrastination has been an issue with me my entire life; it’s driven by my anxiety. I […]

I Did It!

Yesterday’s adventures were all internal, the furthest I got from the apartment was the trash shoot. It’s still raining today but I have to get out of the house and I have to get some exercise. Internal adventures can be the most trying. I had to battle my own inertia and anxiety; that’s a battle […]

Starter Problems

I tried something different today; I ate brunch before writing. I now have caffeine in me and caffeine gives superpowers. That makes not knowing what I’m going to write about particularly bad. Before I had my coffee I couldn’t even remember what I did yesterday; now I do. I went into the City to get […]

Sunset Singing X² + Y² = R²

Yesterday was the first Friday in May, so the first Sunset Singing Circle of 2019. I only discovered it a few years ago but it started in 2002. Battery Park City started it as a response to 9/11, renewal through song. I was going to say that Terre Roche has been leading it since then […]

We Got You Covered

Ahh, the pleasure of writing my blog on my computer. This is the way things are supposed to be. I’m still recovering from the WFUV member drive but we’ll see if the comfort of familiar surroundings makes itself felt in the writing. I was scheduled to work only a half day yesterday, 6 AM to […]

Deni Thing Goes

The soundtrack of today’s edition of Wise Madness is the Metropolitan Opera’s new production of Das Rheingold. Will that inspire or intimidate me. The Ring Cycle is the tale of the universe from birth to death; pretty big shoes to fill. I’ll stick to talking about Deni Bonet, therapy, and food. I missed therapy last […]

I Get by with a Little Help From My Friends

I had a nice little edition planned for today. Today’s events have driven it from my head. That is not a good thing. Drama is only good when it happens to fictional people. My alarm woke me up as usual at 8:30. Between midnight and then my phone is on Do Not Disturb. I saw […]
