Gusher

I’ve been better about blogging every day but missed yesterday. I’ll blame therapy as it serves something of the same purpose for me. The thoughts bounce around my head with such force that they hurt if I don’t let them out. Right now, my thoughts are on bacon. I ran out of bacon about a […]

What’s Up Doc?

I love when I’m reminded how much I love something, yesterday it was peanut butter omelets. I need to make them more often. Oddly, they work best with fake peanut butter, the kinds you don’t have to mix. In all other cases I prefer unadulterated peanut butter without sugar or emulsifiers. I used to call […]

I’m Positive I’m Negative

I’m writing at 8:36 PM and I have not had coffee today. Let’s see if I can get anything done. Yesterday I got a message to check my COVID-19 Alert App. It told me that I had been exposed on Wednesday. I thought that meant the app waited all this time to tell me but […]

It is ridiculous that I’ve waited this long to write today but that is where my head is out. I’ve been dysfunctional of late. I’m not going to dwell on that and instead discuss what I’ve done the last few days. On Sunday I made another pilgrimage to Ditmas Park to hear a porch concert […]

Shiner Progress

Yesterday’s adventures were in health and food shopping. I had my first appointment with my new gastroenterologist, Dr. Ullman. I had to take public transit, subway, and a bus; at least the timing was good. The waiting for the transfer is the part that I hate. This was my first time in a doctor’s office […]

Happiness Against The Universe

I left the house yesterday to go to Aldi to pick up something I needed badly, something to write about. I  no longer blog to process my life but live my life to supply fodder for my blog. Earlier in the day I had televisits with my psychiatrist and therapist. My psychiatrist appointment was supposed […]

Farewell Doctor

I’m going to have to stop writing in 15 minutes to watch Karen Dahlstrom streaming but as I’ve procrastinated all day and didn’t write yesterday I figured it’s best I get started. I’ve had a second glass of ice coffee; the second was actually ice creamed coffee so I should have enough energy. I didn’t […]

Everybody Knows Part 1

I have done nothing interesting since I last blogged. Not quite true as I had poutine for dinner and poutine is always interesting. I wasn’t planning on it, but the chicken hadn’t defrosted, and I don’t have defrost a potato. Can you eat a potato after it’s been frozen? I think the protagonist of The […]

Worship without Gods

I put what I was planning on writing on the back burner. It was a deep philosophical dive into politics, economics, and pop culture. Instead I’m going to write about something I actually know, myself. That’s not being honest, or virtuous, it’s being lazy. It’s much easier to write about me. I went on adventures […]
