Wise Madness
Yesterday was a mental health day; I had appointments with both my psychiatrist and therapist. In the evening I had the best emotional therapy the Friday night Sunset Singing Circle with Terre Roche. I thought it was my last time seeing my therapist. I was wrong, it was the penultimate session. I wasted much of […]
I’ve been busy, that’s a good thing. It’s been three days since my last blog post. I wanted that to sound like the beginning of a Catholic confession, but I don’t know what comes next. I only know that much from movies and TV but as I feel guilty when I don’t blog it seemed […]
Yesterday’s adventure was traveling north to see the Richard Thompson at Tarrytown Music Hall. I could not afford the tickets but out of the blue my friend Connie bought me one because she knows that he is tied with Rhiannon Giddens as my favorite of favorites. Now that I’m carless it’s a pain to get […]
I had a typical Gordon Friday; I went to therapy and then a concert; a little normalcy is nice. I was going to say this could have been pre-pandemic but there were a few things different. Yesterday’s Wise Madness, Talking ‘Bout My Generation and Yours Too, took longer to write than I budgeted which through […]
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! I have Thanksgiving plans. After playing phone tag with Emily for over a week we finally connected; I’m making my annual pilgrimage to Massachusetts for the holiday. I missed last year so this is extra special. I was worried about fare for the bus but even at this late date […]
I have to get used to writing without Lefty supervising me. Who is going to meow commands to me now? Something that seems insignificant but isn’t happened when I went to the theater to see Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. I stay to the credits are over even when it isn’t a […]
Therapy was canceled today, that’s not a good thing. You know what else is not good? I didn’t go to last night’s Met game because the MTA asked people to avoid all unnecessary travel as they tried to recover from the storm. It was a beautiful day. I would have loved to go, the Mets […]
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 […]
Today’s plans are shot; I’m sick. I suspect it started as a reaction to something I ate that then triggered swelling in my intestines leading to an obstruction. I won’t give you the gory details, just that I’ve spent most of today sleeping and haven’t eaten anything. As you might guess that meant no Donut […]
A miracle. I’m writing in the morning before breakfast and even coffee. I used to do this all the time, maybe I can get back to it. It helps that yesterday I went out and did things. It was Friday in May or June so if you ever want to bet where I’ll be bet […]
