Woe Be Gone I Saw Debi Smith

Yesterday’s adventure was seeing Debi Smith and Garrison Keillor at City Winery New York. That’s not how I wanted to start this, but all my English teachers taught me to put the most important idea in the first sentence. I like to work into things gradually. I got my assignment for Election Day; I’ll be […]

Follow the Bouncing Microwave

Wow, I’m writing this when I’m supposed to, in the morning. Maybe this is a harbinger of things to come. Now if I can get back to going to sleep earlier so I’m rested when I wake up. I just closed my eyes and almost fell asleep. I could make coffee but once I do […]

Boost Me Up

I can’t believe this entire day slipped away from me. It’s 9 PM and I’ve hardly done anything, I haven’t even blogged. I have a readymade excuse, but I’m not using it as that would be a lie. I must be honest with My Gentle Readers. So, let’s move back to yesterday and my excuse […]

Take the Election Train

I went for my Board of Elections Poll Worker Training yesterday. I went on Monday, but it was canceled, nobody told me till I got there. It was quite different than I thought. I often hear about a shortage of poll workers and expected a room full of trainees. Instead, there was one other trainee […]

Waiting for Godot, I mean Wendy

Ugh. I’ve stayed home all day waiting for the super to come to fix something. It’s now almost 4 PM. I need to go shopping and do my laundry. Why haven’t I written my blog yet? You know, it’s because I’m an idiot. Why is this as far as I got writing? My phone rang. […]

Eye of the Pyramid

What adventures have I had since I posted yesterday? Yesterday something momentous happened on yesterday’s Donut Walk™, I got to Krispy Kreme and didn’t go in! It was just a walk. Why? Three reasons. First, I didn’t really feel like a donut. Second, I’ve been working on walking faster and didn’t want to break my […]

Emotional Support Animal

The closest thing I had to an adventure yesterday getting my free drink at Dunkin’ Donuts on my Donut Walk™. Ironically, I don’t get the donut at DD but at Krispy Kreme. I prefer DD to KK, but KK gives a free one every day if you’ve been vaxxed. It was extremely hot, so I […]

A Cheesy Idiot Story

I’m supposed to be writing now. Writing that means I am. On Sunday night I was ready to go to sleep when I realized how preternaturally quiet it was; that called for a change of plans and recording Gord’s Gold during the window of quiet. I already had it all planned out and scripted. I […]

Who are the Lab Rats?

After two nights out I stayed home yesterday. That’s not true, I took my Donut Walk™; not only that it became a Donut/French Fry Walk™. Checkers gave everyone with their app a free large order of fries. Checkers is next to Krispy Kreme, I got two delicious fried foods for free. While the 3.8 miles  […]

Yum and Tropes

I did not take a Donut Walk™ yesterday; I took an IHOP Chocolate Chip Pancake™ walk instead. I sign up for restaurants that give birthday rewards, and this is the week I collect. The pancakes have a lot more calories than a glazed donut but it’s also a further walk, 4.6 miles round trip. It’s […]
