I just filled out my absentee ballot, put in the inner envelope, sealed, signed, and dated it, and properly put it in the out envelope with the bar code showing in the window. I still have to stamp and mail it. I’m crossing on the t’s and dotting all the i’s. I’ll mail it today […]

I’ll get right to my health. The obstruction cleared last night after I went to bed. I’m not out of the woods yet which is proved by me writing this instead of eating. I haven’t eaten in 60 hours; I should be starving. I will eat something as soon as I’m finished writing. I’ll have […]
Did you wonder why I wasn’t writing? I’ve been sick. I’m still sick. It’s what I always call my Crohn’s but should call an intestinal obstruction. My intestines have multiple constrictions from 50 years of Crohn’s disease plus hernias and surgical scars. I woke obstructed yesterday and have not eaten since Sunday night. I drink […]
I used to write every day before eating breakfast. It’s now 8:09 PM and I’m just starting to write. I’ll eat dinner when I’m done. I’m writing while watching the Met game. They are up 9-1 so I won’t feel bad about missing some of it to cook. Yesterday I was feeling blah. I had […]
I had a crisis this morning. I went to make breakfast and found something I missed washing last night. I put it in the sink, turned on the water, and nothing came out. Why is this a crisis? You should be way ahead of me. It had nothing to do with cleaning the rack from […]
I didn’t have a good night’s sleep, but I had a great breakfast, chocolate chip brioche French toast, eggs, and sausage, and two strong cups of Marie’s coffee. Marie’s Fresh Roasted Coffee Beans & Gifts is an official member of my pantheon and so gets name checked. The poor sleep is coming too often of […]
Tom Seaver died. I am rarely affected by celebrity deaths; these aren’t people I knew personally. I did not have a relationship with them. Not many eulogies have found their way into Wise Madness but Tom Terrific cannot be denied. New York was filled with sports hero in my adolescence, Namath, Frazier, and Reed, but […]
I should have left the house the last two days. Not because there was anything I particularly needed to do. Not because I needed the exercise, not because I needed the fresh air. I needed the change of scenery to reset my mind. I’m having a bad attack of holier than thou. I was planning […]

Air on a Conditioner
I accomplished something today. After suffering for weeks, I put in the air conditioners! It took me all this time to overcome my anxiety and ask the super to send someone up to install them. The guy never came. Then I realized, the reason I needed someone to do this kind of thing for me […]
I spent all day yesterday working on my fantasy baseball league draft at 8 PM. We could log in at 7 and it was my intention to do so and ask some questions I had about the format We have never done an ESPN league before. I was a little late making dinner and logged […]
