Wise MadnessI had a series of uncomfortable and weird dreams last night. The weirdest was preparing a pack of American Cheese to use as playing cards for a bridge game. When it came time to play I couldn’t find the cheese so we had to use computer dealt real cards in official ACBL boards. I felt […]
I tried something different today; I ate brunch before writing. I now have caffeine in me and caffeine gives superpowers. That makes not knowing what I’m going to write about particularly bad. Before I had my coffee I couldn’t even remember what I did yesterday; now I do. I went into the City to get […]
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 […]
Last night I made an expedition to Fort Greene to see Carolann Solebello, Paul Sachs, and Karyn Oliver. It’s part of a new series that Carolann and Devlin (I write devil first every time) Miles are running at the Putnam’s Pub and Cooker; it’s called Live From the Vault Songwriter’s Sessions. As a bonus I […]
My computer keeps hanging up. I’m afraid I need a new one. This was a Windows 7 machine now running Windows 10. It takes me forever to do anything. Wow, when did I start writing this? I fell back to sleep while waiting for the computer to start working. It’s now many hours later. I […]
This is a tale of a long walk, a doughnut, a chance meeting, and John Platt’s On Your Radar featuring Matt Marshak, Sarah Eide (rhymes with hay duh), and Martin Swinger. Sorry I’m posting so late; the coda will explain why. Yesterday was a beautiful day and I decided to take advantage of it. Instead […]
The rain let up enough yesterday for me to venture out to Bagel Bob’s for 55¢ bagels. That price is only on Mondays from 4 – 7. So yes, I travel from the Bronx to Greenwich Village for half-priced bagels. I follow that with a stop at the Trader Joe’s in the neighborhood. I’m not […]
It’s been four weeks and one day since my surgery. My body is not back to normal but I’m back to living my life and not taking it easy. Going out makes it a lot easier to write a blog about my life. Last night’s adventure was seeing Nobody’s Girl at Rockwood Music Hall. Nobody’s […]
I’m writing this far earlier than usual. I have an appointment with the ophthalmologist this morning and slept well enough to get an early start. My sleep is not back to normal, I still woke up in the night, but it’s improved. I’m slowly recovering from the surgery. My discomfort level is the lowest it’s […]
I did things worth writing about yesterday. I went to see Emily Mure and the Young Novelist at Pete’s Candy Store. I love when my world fits together like a jigsaw puzzle. I love Emily as a musician and a person. I love Graydon and Laura as musicians and people. I know the independently of […]
