The Shadow Knows

I won the battle with my dark side and went to the Halloween Party at The Porch in Harlem. That’s Mark, Beth, and Dena’s listening room/bar/café to be in Harlem. There is still work being done on the interior so for now they appropriately enough use their porch. I was on the fence about going. […]

The Way My Brain Works or Doesn’t

Let’s see if I’m awake enough to write. I’m working the polls on Tuesday; that means being there from 5 AM to about 10 PM. I’m planning on waking up around 4:15, that is much closer to when I usually go to sleep. I decided to spend the weekend shifting my internal clock. Usually I […]

No Work

I didn’t get the job. I decided to tear the band-aid off. I didn’t even expect to hear from them until next week instead I heard yesterday. I have no idea what happened as the interview went so well and I got nothing but praise from the interviewers. I won’t speculate, at least I won’t […]

I Hate Fighting with Friends

Let’s try a rare late-night edition of Wise Madness. I should be on my way home from Rockwood Music Hall now but the show I planned on going to was canceled because a band member got COVID-19. I had an interview for a teaching job yesterday. It went well and I have a video interview […]

Boost Me Up

I can’t believe this entire day slipped away from me. It’s 9 PM and I’ve hardly done anything, I haven’t even blogged. I have a readymade excuse, but I’m not using it as that would be a lie. I must be honest with My Gentle Readers. So, let’s move back to yesterday and my excuse […]

Lindor Truffle

Life really is getting back to normal, yesterday I had a doubleheader. In the early afternoon I went to the Common Ground Coffeehouse volunteer picnic in MacEachron Waterfront Park in Hasting. That involved taking the subway to a bus to the MetroNorth railroad; it was worth it. At least when I got there the park […]

So Sue Me

Good morning campers. Oh it’s 2:22 PM, that’s technically afternoon. I didn’t wake up until 12:15 so for me it’s morning. When I sleep late like that, I call it the land of the lotus eaters. I was doing that often for a while and I forced myself to stop. I’ll let myself do it […]

Koosman, Katherine, and Deb

The problem with doing things worth writing about is that it gives me less time to write. Sunday’s plans didn’t allow me to write about Saturday’s Met game. I’m going to do something today I used to do often, tell the stories visually. I’m also going to do something that I’ve only done of late, […]

Corner the Market

The reason I didn’t blog yesterday was the heat. I had in person therapy at 9:30 AM. What does that have to do with the heat? I’ll get to that. Getting there on time meant getting up early and leaving the house by 7:53; that’s how precise Google Maps is. I made it and it […]

MC Horvendile

Yesterday’s adventure was going to the Met game. Tonight’s too. I could have heard live music right before by Terry Waldo but instead I’m blogging and making a phone call I have to make. I’m paying for my procrastination. I should run to the supermarket, but I forgot what I need. My faults are coming […]
