The Return of Common Ground

I had another pre-pandemic typical day. Yesterday’s adventure was going to Common Ground Coffeehouse to see The Murphy Beds. Even though they are a pain for the carless to get to shows at Common Ground are home games; I’m one of the volunteers. It helps that Carter’s taste is the closest to mine of any […]

Shooting for the Dune

I hope I properly reset my circadian rhythm this morning. On Saturday I slept until 11. I let myself do that on Saturday. Then I did it again on Sunday. I went to sleep at 1:30 instead of midnight last night but when I woke up at 7:40 I left myself go back to sleep […]

It’s a Cookbook!

I’m extremely disappointed, yesterday I finally felt up to going on my Donut Walk™. I managed to walk 3.57 miles, talk to Allison, and buy eggs. I had one bad moment when coughing led to a back spasm, but overall, I felt good. I figured the worst was over and I could get back to […]

Wrong-Way Horvendile

Good morning, well good afternoon, would you believe good evening? I’m writing this only 12 hours late, it’s 9:33 PM. Remember the days I would bang out an entry every day before noon. There were semesters I banged them out before 8 AM. COVID-19 has a strange affect on time. It must have to do […]

Happiness Against The Universe

I left the house yesterday to go to Aldi to pick up something I needed badly, something to write about. I  no longer blog to process my life but live my life to supply fodder for my blog. Earlier in the day I had televisits with my psychiatrist and therapist. My psychiatrist appointment was supposed […]

Freakazoids from Beyond Infinity

In addition to everything else COVID-19 makes it difficult for me to blog. “Dear diary, I stayed home yesterday.” Did I at least cook something interesting? I had blackened chicken again. That’s interesting the first time, but not the second time in a week. I go on social media and see how wonderful people are […]

Too Many Choices

I’m writing in the morning. I’m actually doing it. Now if only I had something to write about and I didn’t want to go back to sleep. Having something to write about is greatly overrated. Lord Dunsany once boasted that he could write a story about the mud at the bottom of the Thames. He […]

A Tale of Four Counties

Welcome to a rare early afternoon edition of Wise Madness. My soundtrack is WFUV‘s Sunday Supper hosted by John Platt. At least when I start. It was a long day and it might take more than the show’s remaining 45 minutes for me finish. It was long because I went on four county, two state, […]

God and Morality

Once again, I gave into temptation and had a Popeye’s chicken sandwich for dinner instead of cooking. It’s right by the supermarket, I intended on cooking what I bought. The spirit was willing, but the flesh was weak. They are really good and inexpensive. Tonight, I’m cooking. I’m listening to my possible best albums of […]

Sharing Snot

Dateline BoltBus: I’m on the bus back to New York. We are still in South Station. The data plan is so limited I’m going to just use it to post his. I’ll use my phone for everything else. Once again it was pointed out that I forgot something very important in my last entry, our […]
