Raquel in a Roman Field

I took yesterday off from everything I didn’t get dressed. The biggest effort I made all day was making hot dogs and fries in the air fryer for dinner. No, that’s the second biggest effort, the biggest was attempting to make an omelet in the air fryer. I cooked it in a cake pan. It […]

Out of the Gas Range and into the Air Fryer

I don’t write and things happen. Let’s set the wayback machine to February 14, 2023, the place Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3. Hey Mr. Peabody, why then? That’s when John Platt presented the most recent edition of On Your Radar Sherman. I am still obsessed with 60-year-old cartoons.  I have a routine now for OYR […]

Chocolate and a Contralto

I’m posting again, give me a cookie! Today is the best day ever. Why? It’s Valentine’s Day. No, that does not mean I have a Valentine. As has happened every year of my life I’m alone on Valentine’s Day. I’m not a misanthrope, not having someone special is not a good thing. So why is […]

The Downfall of the Lord of the Mondays and the Return of the Air Fryer

Some Mondays are more Monday than others or as David put it; “I hate it when Friday the 13th falls on a Monday.” I left the house this morning but had to go back because I realized I didn’t have my coffee. I got on the subway and went to do my usual morning routines […]

The Tannenbaum Defenestration

Yesterday’s highlight was the performance of one of favorite holiday rituals, the Tannenbaum defenestration. This was only my second time observing the ritual. I’m Jewish, I might sing Christmas carols, but I don’t do Christmas trees, but I live with someone who does, and I enjoy second-hand Christmas. My roommate is Christmas Tree Orthodox, the […]

Risky Business

Disaster struck yesterday; the air fryer stopped working. The instructions said to leave it unplugged when not in use. I plugged it in, and the power light stayed off. I am addicted to my air fryer. How bad is it? I didn’t make the chicken I planned for last night and just had peanut butter […]

I just filled out my absentee ballot, put in the inner envelope, sealed, signed, and dated it, and properly put it in the out envelope with the bar code showing in the window. I still have to stamp and mail it. I’m crossing on the t’s and dotting all the i’s. I’ll mail it today […]

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 […]

Annoying People and Friends

I haven’t left the house since my last post, or have I? I think I did. I went to get a refill of fluoxetine. Who knows what that is without looking it up? It’s generic Prozac. It’s not how I think of it, but I should learn to. That’s what it says on the bottle. […]

Waiting for Not Godot

I’ve become a waiter. I’m sitting here waiting for UPS to pick up my Amazon return, the one I waited all day yesterday for them to pick up, and I’m waiting for someone at the Bronx office of the NYC board of elections to talk to me about my missing absentee ballot. I’ve been waiting […]
