Lead Us Not Into Penn Station

Occasionally there are benefits to being me. I got an email from WFUV on Thursday asking me if I wanted tickets to see Richard Thompson on Friday night. RT is tied with Rhiannon Giddens for my favorite of favorites and I was free so of course I said yes. I went with my WFUV volunteering […]

Licensed to Drive

I’m writing early again. I seem to have fallen into a good habit for a change. I did work at this, but it has much to do with sleeping better. My digestive system and sleep apnea aren’t making trouble. It’s nice waking up and not wanting to go right back to sleep. I had trouble […]

Party Like It’s 2020

The after I had to skip blogging because I didn’t have enough time I had sleep issues and couldn’t start blogging until 3:18. Sometimes things aren’t fair. Even now I’m fighting to stay alert enough to write. Am I starting with to excuse any problems with this entry? Not consciously. I always feel the need […]

That Was the Year That Was

I was going to go shopping yesterday but couldn’t face the rain. My mother would say, “What? Your made of sugar?” I have double plans for today and tomorrow, so I don’t know what I’ll do. Today I’m going to the New York Botanical Garden Train Show with Allison and Joe and then to my […]

You Realize of Course This Means WAR

The sleep apnea hit me like a ton of bricks today. I have been too sleepy to do anything including blogging or recording more for Folk Music Notebook. I’m not over it. I just yawned. Maybe I should make another pot of coffee and this time inject it straight into my veins. I’m going to […]

Within You Without You

Last thing I told you was that I was starting three days of volunteering at WFUV. I thought that the only way I’d have time to blog is if I could do it from the station. That plan had to be abandoned when they decided to up security on the computers we use to take […]

Spark Plug

Last night I went to my first Knick game of the season. The Knicks are not good; the technical term is bad. Going into last night’s game their record was 3-10. They were playing another bad team, the Cleveland Cavaliers who were 4-8. Vegas had the Knicks as 2-point favorites. FiveThirtyEight had the Knicks as […]

Baby Steps

I’m catching up on my life in Wise Madness. I got home from the hospital Monday evening and now it’s Thursday morning. So that’s what I have to cover today. Who can guess the first thing I did when I got home on Monday? Monday is important. I watched Game of Thrones. I didn’t want […]

I have so much to write about and limited time. I could have said that each of the last three days when I haven’t written. Over the last three days I’ve seen three concerts and a basketball game. The reason I haven’t written is trouble sleeping at night and therefore sleeping late in the mornings. […]

The Vision Thing

This is disappointing, I’m not seeing as well today as I did yesterday. I know this objectively, I had to increase the screen magnification to be able to read on my computer. Perhaps it will snap back. I hope so. My hopes were so high yesterday. I have a slow-motion cold, maybe that’s to blame. […]
