There’s an evil force at work slowing down my posting. I started writing this yesterday morning. I got interrupted and didn’t even save what I had. I then forgot to get back to it. I got ready to start writing this morning, my phone rang, and I took a meeting with Deni. Notice the self-important, […]

I have old business I forgot to write about. First, I got my stimulus direct deposit! Not only that but I got a personal letter from some guy whose handwriting was illegible but was ostensibly Donald Trump. He is jealous because four years ago I wrote about my daily emails from my close personal friends, […]
I’m an idiot, have I mentioned that before? I’m also becoming sessile as I’ve grown accustomed to being held hostage by COVID-19. Those two combined yesterday. I’ve been meaning to make an expedition to one of two bagel stores within walking distance, 1.6 miles away, for well over a week. They aren’t that far from […]
The Final Frontier
Yesterday I did something I haven’t done in years; I watched a space launch. It’s been almost 9 years since America last launched people into space. It felt so good to be back. I was born in 1957, the year of Sputnik. The Space Age is my age. I watched Alan Shepard’s launch when I […]
Welcome to a rare post-therapy edition of Wise Madness. My phone appointment was for 9:30. Good thing I had a restful night’s sleep. All that has to do with is how well I breathe during the night. I even woke up 15 minutes before my alarm went off at 8:00. I didn’t get to blog […]
Nirvana and Voting
Yesterday’s excitement was making blackened chicken breast for dinner. I know that’s not exactly exciting but at least it’s spicy. I used to buy Cajun seasoning, now I just throw on a mixture of cayenne, paprika, black pepper, and garlic salt, in no fixed quantities. It ends up being cheaper and just as good. No […]
The Exorcist
I never use drugs or drink. Why? Poutine. Huh? Remember I had a Crohn’s attack and feared it was from eating poutine. The night before last I couldn’t resist and had poutine again. I’m addicted, like an addict (Buffy reference). I didn’t get sick but there was a small amount of bloating the next day. […]
I’m getting too comfortable posting every other day. As soon as I started writing this I was called on to help someone set up a streaming festival. Yes, it’s why I created Social Distancing Streaming Concerts, and I’m glad to do it, but the timing was bad. The person I’m talking to isn’t using my […]
Was the most exciting thing that happened to me yesterday my first cold brew coffee of the year? It might be. I wonder if what I like about it is just how it’s made. If there were a blind taste test would I know the difference between it and regular iced coffee? Would most people? […]
Good news, I woke up this morning feeling much better. There’s always some residual discomfort after an obstruction but that’s minor. I’ve been able to eat normally today. Breakfast was scrappleeggsandcheese on pita. I put up a cold brew on Sunday when this was just starting. I kept it brewing until this morning. It tasted […]
