Wise Madness
Here’s a peek inside my brain. I just read something on Facebook that got me mad. Ten seconds later I have no idea what it was. I’m not going to go back and try and find it. It was neither politics nor baseball, the two topics that generate the most posts that offend me. Guess […]
I had an eventful day, let’s see what I can remember, I walked 6 miles, an idiot story that involved blood being spilled, an unpleasant encounter with the police, hit subway delays, and a great Met game. I end with a eulogy for a friend. That was my day. I guess I’m finished writing. Oh, […]
Welcome to a writing while watching the Met game edition of Wise Madness. Let’s see if I can gather enough concentration. Yesterday was not a good day. The weather wasn’t good, I didn’t take my walk, the only time I left the apartment was a quick run to the local supermarket. I bought comfort food, […]
Give me the Al Gore environment award; I went the first day of the heat wave without using AC. My prewar building deserves some of the credit. I rushed to put the AC in the window and didn’t need it. By the time, the heat wave is over I’m sure I will. The building has […]
Going to a Met game is not supposed to be an all-day activity but yesterday it was. The Met-Phillies game started at 1:10. As happens too often I wanted to get there early but dilly-dallied for 20 minutes longer than I wanted to. That still gave me time to spare but when I ran out […]
Mea Culpa, I did not go out either yesterday or today. Last night I could have seen the wonderful Miwa Gemini do a porch show but the combination of the trip to Brooklyn and the Mets playing a doubleheader talked me out of it. Today there was nothing on my Radar and Jacob deGrom pitching […]
This is the second day in a row I started writing before breakfast. Maybe I can get back in the habit. Since I started walking regularly people keep saying things like “I bet you are feeling better now.” The answer is no, I feel worse. One benefit of being sessile for a year is that […]
Today I’m writing while listening to the Met game; let’s see how that works out. I can tell this is one of those days I’m going to have to force myself to go out and take my walk. I also have to do laundry. Will I find the motivation? You’ll find out the day after […]
I have time for a short entry before I take my Donut Walk™. My posts are so varied, do you find that a problem? One day I’ll write a silly recounting of my day with self-deprecatory humor and the next a serious piece on punishment that asks you to rethink the issue. When we aren’t […]
Yesterday’s adventure was the penultimate Sunset Singing Circle. I had missed two weeks in a row, one week it wasn’t held and the next week I got sick; I needed my fix. Fred and I always eat at The View at Battery Park before the show; yesterday morning when I tried to make a reservation […]
