This is My Only Home

Time to start the annals of Falcon Ridge 19, the chronological account. It starts on Wednesday morning when Fred picked me up. I’m not going to give a tale of our trip as it was for the most part uneventful. The only pressing question on our minds was rain. Would we be able to make […]

This is My Home

I’m back from Falcon Ridge. I got back eight hours ago and had ambitions to do things today including writing this hours ago. It’s hard to do that when you fall asleep sitting in your chair. I still have things to do but I won’t make My Gentle Readers wait another second. Jake J asked […]

Achievement Unlocked

Yesterday was a stay at home day. Partially that was about making best use of my MetroCard. I’m not buying a monthly because I’ll be away for Falcon Ridge. Now I can buy a weekly and have it expire the day before I leave. I made myself a special dinner last night. The main course […]

Doesn’t Know Enough To Come In Out of the Rain

I’m trying something new, not forcing myself to blog in the morning. I was hungry so I ate first. When I eat I watch TV and got involved watching Doctor Who. Then I had Budgiedome business to take care of. Then personal business to take care of. Now I’m ready to rumble. Sorry, Kathy, I […]

Yesterday’s plan was to not leave the air-conditioned apartment. I failed because I’m an idiot. I started to make breakfast, put the frozen bagel in the toaster oven, and only then remembered that I had only one egg. I was supposed to pick up a dozen on my way home from therapy the day before […]

Identity is Not a Genre

I need to get out more. Staying home puts too much pressure on my blogging. I have two ideas for today’s blog, much better than when I sit here hoping that one comes to me. Time out, the WQXR announcer said “Richard” Strauss with “Richard” pronounced like Richard Nixon not the German “Rick-hard” Is she […]

Music is My Master

I didn’t leave the house yesterday. I might not leave today; yet I feel my mental health is improving. Perhaps the Prozac helps, maybe it’s just seeing both my therapist and my psychiatrist. It could just be time. In any even I was able to edit photos yesterday. That’s a start, I have some more difficult things to do but it’s something. The pictures are pretty good.

The Falcon Ridge Cycle: Die Walküre

On my third post about Falcon Ridge I finally get to the official start of the Festival. After various mishaps FRFF was running on all cylinders Friday. What I mean by that is that I started my day with bacon and eggs and the Dharma Café; I have simple needs.
