Byrd Watching

It’s a lot easier to blog when I’ve done something the day before. Sadly, those are also the days that I think of the philosophical topics to write about that I always forget by the time it comes to write after a slow day. I could get meta and write about that; except I did […]

The Band of the Our

I slept late today, good thing we turn the clocks back tonight. If I next wake up 24 hours after that I’ll be right on schedule. That doesn’t help me get things done today; things like blogging. Good thing I have something to write about. It wasn’t planned but yesterday was a mental health day. […]

Moor or Less

I’m getting better at getting out and doing things that aren’t music, my safe space. Last night Katherine and I went to see Othello in Bryant Park. I love their picnic event series. There are chairs on the lawn to the sides of the stage but they provide blankets for those that want to sit […]

Friends, Music, and Food, aka The Usual

I have so much catching up to do that I feel intimidated about starting to blog. If I don’t I’ll fall further behind and be even more intimidated. At least I’m recognizing that and writing. Now if I could only do that about important things. Sorry for the short shrift I’m going to have to […]

Music Needs to Follow Orders

The reason I didn’t blog yesterday is that I’m an idiot. I had Word open and was about to write when I got a text from Bri, asking me about parking at Allison’s house. That’s when I realized it was Thursday and I was supposed to be boarding a bus to New Jersey at that […]

Today I finally wrap up writing about Falcon Ridge. Good thing as I’m going stir crazy at home doing nothing to write about. It’s been a weird week. I’ve done nothing and I’ve seen no one. It’s been me and the cats along with some phone calls from Bri. Sunday morning at Falcon Ridge was […]

Birthday Dayenu

I celebrated my birthday on Thursday but yesterday was the actual date. I spent it doing nothing special and that was by design. I took it easy, though not as easy as I’m spending today. It was Friday so the day started with an expedition to Harrison to see my therapist. It was beastly hot […]

Please Don’t Make Me Too Happy

The muse is silent this morning so I decided to not blog this morning. Then I realized that was something to write about. My inspiration is being uninspired. It doesn’t help that yesterday I made a conscious decision to not leave the house. It meant not getting exercise, and I’ve been trying to walk to […]

It’s the End of America as We Know It

Sorry I didn’t write yesterday. I didn’t have a good excuse. It seems like a small thing but it has a lot to do with my other problems. We’ll be discussing this at my next therapy session. As a consequence I now have to catch up with what happened on Saturday before I get to […]

Opera and Folk but Not Folk Opera

I missed writing yesterday so now I have a lot to catch up on; one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to, an idiot story, and the end of the world. See what happens when you miss a day? Friday night I went to see Hawktail. This was my first time seeing them as […]
