I am going to try and blog for the first time in months. Yesterday was my birthday, now that I am older and more mature, I might be up for it. I’m not going to be overly ambitious. I’ll stick to the highlights surrounding my birthday. First off, I care about my birthday, This is […]

Kaia than a Kite
I am burning the candle at both ends; let’s see how long I can keep this up. Last night, Dan and I went to see the incredible Kaia Kater at Cafe Wha in Greenwich Village. Before I got to the show I taught a full day of school, prepared the Facebook Event for On Your […]
I’m officially on spring break. After my wonderful Seder on Thursday and the Mets home opener on Friday I spent the weekend without leaving the apartment. Part of that was nice, part of that was a visit from my old friends, depression and anxiety. I was going to go to Aldi but found out that […]
Captain’s Log Supplemental: I’m an idiot. I have said that often enough that it’s clearly not worth a supplementary log issue, but it explains why I need to make one. Yesterday I praised all the changes at Citi Field, and I neglected to mention the most important one. During the Seventh Inning Stretch Take Me […]
I’ve had a busy 24 hours. I was supposed to go to the Mets home opener on Thursday and then directly to my Seder in Connecticut. The Mets postponed the game on Wednesday because of the possibility of bad weather. If you think that 75º and sunny is bad weather, then that forecast was accurate. […]
Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Forgive me Gentle Readers for I have sinned. Last you heard from me I was planning on going to see The Ladles at Sunny’s in Red Hook Brooklyn. It had been on my calendar since it was announced. They are one of my favorite bands and I have […]
Yesterday was the best day of the year, Opening Day of the baseball season. Like Annie in Bull Durham I worship at the Church of Baseball. I made sure to get home before first pitch. I had the TV on when they announced not just the starting lineups but the subs. This is all part […]
Yay! I’m writing two days in a row. Let’s see if I can go back to doing this every day. Blogging is part of my sense of self. What else are parts of my sense of self? I was going to say DJ but that’s part of my man about folk. I’m a radical empiricist. […]
Once again I’m writing from the couch in the teacher’s lounge. I miss having an office. I’m alone now so I can get things done. Have I done anything exciting since my last post? I made up the precalculus midterm. I was a little out of practice and had to recreate some of my methods […]
To God or Not to God
Sadly, it looks like my blogging my mainly occur on the weekends for the now. Getting up before 6AM every day takes a lot out of me. Perhaps my body will adjust but I will not assume it will. The Mets are playing on the West Coast, so I didn’t get to sleep until after […]
