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 stayed in and did nothing exciting yesterday. I’ve done nothing exciting today. I need eggs so it looks like I’ll go out tomorrow. Now that I have to pay for the bus going to Aldi and Stop & Shop I might end up going to the more expensive local store more often. Homework for […]
I went out and did exciting things yesterday, at least by pandemic standards. I should be champing at the bit to write yet I’ve waiting till the afternoon. It is now half an hour since I wrote that. My bit is unchamped. I did some research. The original idiom was “champ at the bit.” The […]
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 […]
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 […]

I just realized I’ve known her for almost exactly half […]

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 […]
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 […]
