Gordon’s Big Ego

I’m starving but I love My Gentle Readers so much that I’m going to write first. I didn’t write yesterday; I always feel bad when that happens. I’ll blame my therapist as she had to cancel our session for health reasons. She almost gave me a session anyway when she called to cancel. I had […]

There Is Too Such a Thing As a Free Dinner

I have been working on my procrastination skills all day today but have reached the point of diminishing returns. It’s time to work on other skills, like blogging. There is nothing like waking up at 5:20 in the morning with bathroom issues and then wanted to say up until six to post the WFUV Question […]

Waiting List

Yay, I overcame lethargy and I’m writing for the first time in days. That was tough. Yesterday I went on a shopping adventure to Aldi. This directly led to an idiot story. I prefer going to Aldi on Sundays because that is the only day that the BX1 runs local; to bus stops a block […]

This Bird Has Flown

I’ve managed to start writing at 11 AM even though I had breakfast first. This is a new development. I made the one-pan egg, ham, and cheese sandwich. I haven’t made that for a while. That’s because I haven’t had the good bread in the house. I still don’t, but what I have is at […]

Don’t Cry Over Spilt Eggs

The path I followed was the human discomfort with chaos, and our preference for unfounded explanations over no explanations.

Amanda for All Seasons

Yesterday I was a real American, I watched the Super Bowl. I timed things well. I sat down to eat dinner as Amanda Gorman was about to read her poem. She has become a celebrity poet. Have we had one before? Maybe Robert Frost but I was too young to remember that well. The Super […]

Getting Blacks Vaxxed

It’s Super Bowl Sunday. Does that mean I should write about football? No, it doesn’t. I got tired early last night, I thought of going to sleep before 11 PM. I didn’t because I wanted to record Gord’s Gold first. Why didn’t I record it then? It was too loud. I was waiting for things […]

A Day in the Life

I’m not following my normal Sunday schedule. I tried recording Gord’s Gold between one and two PM. At 1:05 I got a notification on my phone that my Amazon delivery was one stop away. As I didn’t want to be interrupted I decided to wait until it arrived to start. I realized that was not […]

Tutoring My Own Horn

I need to stop scrolling and start writing. Good thing I woke up early this morning so even with all the procrastination I’m starting to blog before 1 PM. My therapist has me looking at what I accomplish, not what I don’t. I’ve accomplished having cold toes. It’s been cool in the apartment. Good thing […]

The Wisdom to Know the Difference

Yesterday got away from me and I never blogged. I went to make one call before I started and it lasted three and a half  hours. I’m not complaining. That’s the kind of thing that makes quarantining manageable. I’d rather have done that than blogged, but I’d rather remember what I was planning on writing […]
