Sorry I didn’t write yesterday. I can’t believe how long I waited to start today. Everything in my life seems to be on hold but Gord’s Gold. That’s the one thing that I can always work on. Today I got a box of CDs and a digital download. That a lot of listening homework. What […]

I’m giving myself a folk music break and listening to classical music while I write this. I’ve been trying to listen to as much new to me folk music as I can to find material for Gord’s Gold. The problem is that Ted Sturgeon was right, 90% of everything is crud. I often have the […]

Best Day of the Year
Today is April 1 so here’s a warning; I’m going to fool you. I’m happy to announce that I’m totally over my Crohn’s attack. Today I ate breakfast, eggs Horvendile served on flatbread, and took my Donut Walk™. I’m back to feeling like a human being. I walked 3.58 miles. I stopped on the way […]
I got my COVID-19 relief money! I’m careful to not call it stimulus, that’s not its purpose. It’s to give people money to live on to help make up for losing earnings opportunity because of the pandemic. The other proper term would be rescue money. Everyone calls it stimulus, so it’s not wrong, but it […]
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 […]
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 […]
Another day another complaint that I’m writing too late in the day. What’s worse is that I skipped yesterday. Now I have to go deep into my memory banks to remember what I wanted to write about. I did write yesterday, my Gord’s Gold about Barnaby Bright. Gord’s Gold is unfair. I only write about […]
Yesterday I found buried treasure, shaved beef at the bottom of the meat bin in the freezer. I dug for it because I suspected it might be there. That meant I had Philadelphia cheesesteak for dinner. I had to improvise as I had no hero rolls, I substituted a mini-naan. It looked something like a […]
I wasn’t going to write today but that if I didn’t I would never end up writing about Syracuse Salt Potatoes. I have never eaten one and blame LORi for not introducing them to me when we visited Syracuse on our way to Toronto. Her son was at the University. I have a weakness for […]
Today disappeared. I somehow slept until 1:30 PM. It was a rare day that I made breakfast before I turned on my computer. I know you care what I ate, it was hameggandcheese on a bagel. I’m considering not cooking dinner and just having peanut butter. Usually I think of that as a failure, but […]
