I never go to parties but I’m going to two parties this weekend. Who ordered that? Whenever I say “Who ordered that” I am quoting the physicist I.I. Rabi. That was his reaction when the muon was discovered. There was no place for it in the physics of the day. I used to see Rabi […]

How am I not blogging every day? I talked to my psychiatrist on Thursday and didn’t mention that. I’ll have to bring it up with my therapist. I know the world is not eagerly awaiting my blog every day but I am. It’s a sign that something is not quite right with me. OK fine, […]
What is Green?
I own you a health report after yesterday’s post. My vaccination reaction or Crohn’s attack ended the way so many Crohn’s attacks do, in my sleep. In the middle of the night, I woke up and knew I was better. I don’t know the word to describe how I felt when I was sick. For […]
Today’s edition of Wise Madness is not going to go the way I thought it would when I went to sleep. I had yesterday nicely planned. I woke up early, popped out of bed, blogged early, and was finished with breakfast before noon. For me that’s early. The CDC announced Emergency approval of a second […]
Yesterday’s adventure was a trip to my gastroenterologist. I do that about three times a year. I think that’s based on how often he likes to talk about music with me. I suspect most people don’t look forward to the social aspect of going to the doctor. I love mine. It’s a schlep to get […]
I’m out of the habit of writing. I must get back into it. This should have been written this morning. I have so many things on my mind. The problem is that I’m mentally sharp and it’s hard to keep things balanced on anything that comes to a point. One project that took some time […]
Life is not fair. I’ve been living carefully for a year and a half. I wear a mask when I’m out. I’ve avoiding spending time with unvaccinated people. I’ve been vaccinated and boosted for COVID-19 and got my flu vaccination last week. So, what happened? I started feeling a scratchy throat late the night before […]
I hope I properly reset my circadian rhythm this morning. On Saturday I slept until 11. I let myself do that on Saturday. Then I did it again on Sunday. I went to sleep at 1:30 instead of midnight last night but when I woke up at 7:40 I left myself go back to sleep […]
I had an MRI yesterday; will that make me resonate with you? I didn’t think so. The test was scheduled for 2:45 and I couldn’t eat for four hours beforehand so I had what was for me a big breakfast. I finished off the bacon, that means I have to buy more. The worst part […]
Yesterday morning when I wrote I had anxiety and depression. That followed a happy day celebrating my birthday with a good friend and Junior’s cheesecake. I spent my birthday going to the gastroenterologist and the anxiety and depression are gone. No, the GI doc didn’t fix my psyche. Therapy did. I now look back and […]
