Bus Ride Revelation

I’m listening to We’re About 9 now so I should say, I’m “Writing Again.” I wonder what fraction of My Gentle Readers get that? There was a time it would have been most of them. I’ll explain it before finish. What’s the excitement since I last wrote? My therapy was canceled today, and I couldn’t […]

Sailor on Leave

Yesterday I had my best day in four months and it pretty much feels like the best day ever. I’m like a sailor on shore leave but instead of indulging in booze, women, and tattoos, I went for music, friends, and Thai food. Albeit the friend I spent the most time with is a woman, […]

The Masked Ball

Let’s get right down to what’s important. Yesterday was Canada Day; what did I have for dinner. If you don’t know the answer you don’t know me well. I had poutine! I didn’t have any gravy in the house, so I had to make an expedition to Stop & Shop. As long as I was […]

Interesting Times

There is an old Chinese curse, “May you live in interesting times.” I wonder if that’s apocryphal and someone just ascribed it to the Chinese for effect. Whether or not the curse comes from Wuhan or not I have interesting things to write about today. Yesterday I was trying to post to Instagram. I was […]

Dance of the Entyvio

Good morning My Gentle Readers. I know that technically it’s not morning, it’s 7:35 PM but I woke up from a nap, so it feels like morning. Maybe the problem is that I made breakfast and had my coffee too early. I guess that’s what I should write about. I went for my infusion today. […]

The Root of Amazing

I’m remarkably busy for someone for the most part staying at home. Social Distancing Streaming Concerts is taking up a lot of my time. It’s taking off wonderfully. I have to work on scheduling the staff so that it’s always someone’s job to reply to people and post shows. I wrote that last sentence half […]

Yesterday was the second Tuesday of the month and that means I went to John Platt’s On Your Radar. This month’s guests were Damn Tall Buildings, South for Winter, and Jared Feinman. In the morning I had an appointment with my gastroenterologist who is my de facto primary care physician. I last saw her in […]

Bye Bye Love

I traveled 43 miles by train yesterday. That seems short but it’s what the Google Maps summary says. I might be misinterpreting it. It was a peripatetic day. As most Fridays do it started with therapy, or more accurately getting to therapy. Yesterday that means walking half a mile and taking a bus half a […]

Music, Trains, and Theft

I’m not tired this morning. Maybe I can catch up on my blogging. It’s now Tuesday and I’m only up to blogging about Saturday. I’ve been doing blogworthy things every day since then. Once again perhaps I’ll compress in an attempt to catch up. Saturday I was off to day 2 of the first annual […]

The County of Kings

One of these days my sleep schedule will get back to normal which will bring my blogging schedule back to the mornings where they belong. Till then I’ll just do the best I can. Yesterday was the big Elizabeth Warren rally at the Kings Theater in Brooklyn. I was excited to see Warren again. I […]
