Wise Madness
The news from school is that we had Open School night. For the first time in three years the parents were invited to the school to meet the teachers. There was a bonus, as we had to say until 7 PM we were allowed to leave early and come back and when we did, we […]
Here’s something that renters everywhere, especially ones in New York can relate to. On Thursday, the spout in my bathtub fell off and won’t screw back on. I cannot shower without that as the water just comes out the bare pipe. The part that prevents that is in the spout. I immediately texted my landlord. […]
I’m still not writing every day and that’s not good. Do I remember anything that happened since I last wrote? I made a life-changing discovery a few days ago. Aldi now carries Irish bangers! Guess what I had for dinner that night? You are so smart; you knew it was bangers & mash. I’m having […]
For the first time since Lefty died, I got a proper night’s sleep; I went to sleep at 1AM and woke up at 7AM and slept straight through. Sure, I’d prefer to get 7½ hours of sleep, but I can go indefinitely on 6 and this is better than I’ve been doing. I woke up […]
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 […]
I had a crisis this morning. I went to make breakfast and found something I missed washing last night. I put it in the sink, turned on the water, and nothing came out. Why is this a crisis? You should be way ahead of me. It had nothing to do with cleaning the rack from […]
I never use drugs or drink. Why? Poutine. Huh? Remember I had a Crohn’s attack and feared it was from eating poutine. The night before last I couldn’t resist and had poutine again. I’m addicted, like an addict (Buffy reference). I didn’t get sick but there was a small amount of bloating the next day. […]
I’m still working on my making my phone mine. I just add the MTA app. I’m not using that now but someday I’ll need to buy tickets again. I love that I could sign in with my fingerprint. I didn’t have to remember my password. That’s how everything should be done, biometrics. Much better than […]
I went on an expedition today, two whole blocks to the supermarket because I was out of eggs. I wore the band new mask that my roommate made me. This is how I look, like some sort of crazed criminal. I wasn’t wearing my reading glasses so I couldn’t see how I looked. It was […]
