This is better, my third day in a row writing. I’m getting back in the groove. Now I just have to get back to writing in the morning. I’ll give myself a pass today as I was on the phone until 2:44 AM. No, I’m not totally anal. I just looked at my phone’s call […]

The Final Frontier
Yesterday I did something I haven’t done in years; I watched a space launch. It’s been almost 9 years since America last launched people into space. It felt so good to be back. I was born in 1957, the year of Sputnik. The Space Age is my age. I watched Alan Shepard’s launch when I […]
I went on an expedition yesterday, a quest in search of beef gravy to make poutine. That meant heading to Stop & Shop a few miles away. On the way I finished my facemask survey. After observing 247 people the results are 62.4% of men wore masks and 61.2% of the women. We can reject […]
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 […]
I have to get out of this blogging every other day routine. I need to get out of the blogging late routine. That’s an isolation goal. Let’s see if I can succeed. Blame and problems or delays in this entry on Laurie MacAllister and Ellis Paul who are streaming live as I write this. Now […]
I can either write something now or call someone. As I’ll be zooming later I’ll opt for writing. The question is which is more stressful, deciding who to call or deciding what to write? This is going to be one of those, I don’t care if anyone likes it, I want to write it entries. […]
Social Closening
Do I go out and shop now or do I write first? Which is procrastinating? I’ll write first. After I shop I have to change and wash up. It’s now four hours later and I did neither. If that surprises you, welcome new reader of Wise Madness. I had a good excuse. I got a […]
I should have started writing hours ago. Why didn’t I? I have even less initiative than usual. I have to fight that. No use beating myself up, let’s start writing. My victory today was calling to make an appointment for my next infusion. It’s due a week from Saturday. I wasn’t even sure if I […]
Good news, I woke up at 7:45 this morning and got right out of bed. It didn’t take force of will, I was just fully awake. Maybe this really is just about sleep apnea. When we get on the other side of COVID-19 I’ll final see a doctor about it. For now, every pulmonologist is […]
My life is so boring now that I should do some creative writing. I did write a poem while in the bathroom at 6:30 AM. I’m surprised I remember that I wrote it; I forgot until this moment. I recorded it as a voice memo on my phone. I think this is the first time […]
