I might have plans for today other than the Halloween Party, a new folk opera Tam Lin by Fiona Gillespie and Elliot Cole. I wish I knew about this earlier, I just found out late last night. Fiona posted this picture on Facebook. How can you not want to see an opera based on the […]

Let’s see if I’m awake enough to write. I’m working the polls on Tuesday; that means being there from 5 AM to about 10 PM. I’m planning on waking up around 4:15, that is much closer to when I usually go to sleep. I decided to spend the weekend shifting my internal clock. Usually I […]
Yesterday was a bad mental health day. It was due to a confluence of events the most important of which is isolation, I have not seen a friend in almost two weeks. Talking to my psychiatrist did more harm than good. I like my psychiatrist, but I found out that he not vaccinated and doesn’t […]
It’s 9:08 AM and I’m writing, how did that happen? I actually started before 9:00 but the insert time keyboard shortcut alt+shift+T wasn’t working. Instead that was opening the snipping tool. It wasn’t just in word but in all apps. I couldn’t figure out what happened until I googles alt+shift+T and discovered that happens in […]
I saw two concerts the last two nights, Dar Williams with Crys Matthews on Thursday and the Murphy Beds with Ivan Goff on Saturday. By skipping yesterday, I now can’t do either show justice, especially when I have personal things to discuss too. I’m drinking my second perfect cup of coffee as I write, that […]
Let’s try a rare late-night edition of Wise Madness. I should be on my way home from Rockwood Music Hall now but the show I planned on going to was canceled because a band member got COVID-19. I had an interview for a teaching job yesterday. It went well and I have a video interview […]
I have a busy day today so this will have to be short. Yesterday I went to in-person therapy. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize it till I got there but it was only a 30-minute session. The trip takes an hour and a half each way. On the bright side it’s good for my physical health, […]
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 […]

Wise Madness and Gord’s Gold are starting to blend in my head. The thoughts that I used to organize as imagined blog posts now sometimes come out as imagined things to say on Gord’s Gold. I almost started this with Welcome My Gentle Listeners. You aren’t My Gentle Listeners, you are My Gentle Readers, and […]
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 […]
