Today is not going as smoothly as yesterday. I stayed in bed an extra hour and I’m not blogging until 1:30 PM. On the bright side I made French toast for breakfast and watched the first episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. It didn’t sound exciting to me but that’s what I thought of Wandavision […]

Somewhere Over the Rainbow Girls

I spent much of Friday planning then replanning, then rereplanning Gord’s Gold. I didn’t finish until tonight. I’ve more meticulous about the show’s timing. I now try hard to have been 54 and 55 minutes of music. On the bright side I have an entire set already organized for next week. I have 655 songs […]

The Return of the New Bedford Folk Festival

Now on to Sunday at The New Bedford Folk Festival. We started with breakfast at a Latin American café. As a good Jew I had the Cuban Sunrise Tortilla, slow-cooked pork shoulder, fried ham, fried egg, and Monterey Jack cheese and of course coffee. Life begins with the first cup of coffee. We got an […]

I Like Mic

Monday’s adventure was a quest for a working microphone. Starting Sunday night, I got error messages when I plugged mine into the computer. It said that the USB was drawing more power than was available. I tried every USB port on the computer and the same thing happened. I crowdsourced a solution and found two […]

Meditations on Depression with Eggs

I just resisted the urge to eat first and decided to blog. That’s a good thing. I didn’t write yesterday. Yesterday morning I got a call from my favorite receptionist at the hospital I get my therapy. She did not call because she missed me. She called to tell me that therapy was canceled. She […]

The Solastalgia Will Come Out Tomorrow

I hate that I’m not writing every day. We talked about that during therapy. My therapist finds it disturbing as do I. I was just good and told myself I had to write before doing the Washington Post Crossword. I have to go shopping today and If I had started on the puzzle, I’d either […]

I’m not dead. I’ve just hit a dead spot in writing. I have to get myself back in the writing habit. I did things the last two days, that helps. My friends Mark and Beth opened a restaurant/music venue, The Porch, in Harlem. Mark and Beth have a canonical order. I never know how that […]

Apeeling Garlic

I had things to write about today and all that’s surfacing now is the potato. I made mashed potatoes last night and got more ambitious than of late. I went for garlic even though I have no garlic powder or garlic press, the ways I have previously added garlic. Instead, I decided to go full […]

The Chronoklepts are at it again. These notorious times thieves stole all of yesterday and a great deal of today. Why didn’t I blog yesterday? Why am I not writing until 2:48 PM today when I still have to go shopping? The Chronoklepts. I need a Chronoklept warning system and an effective weapon to use […]

The Greatest Gift

I am going to get out of shape, I haven’t taken a walk in a week. I planned on one yesterday, but I had a video doctor’s appointment. If it was in person, I’d have walked one way. It was video because my doctor was sick. I feel bad, I disappointed him. He’s been talking […]
