Now for the story of my hospitalization. I really should have taken notes; the timeline in my head does not quite work out. I don’t plan on this being a play by play so that shouldn’t be that much of a problem. When I was back in my room I was hooked up all over […]

I’m back from the hospital and finally ready to write. One thing that has come right back to me is forgetting my brilliant idea of what to write. Somehow starting like this seems very me. My energy is low but my built-up demand is high for writing is high. These thoughts have to find a […]
Did you notice that I was hardly online yesterday and didn’t even blog? That’s because I was too sick to use my computer for very long. I had an old school Crohn’s attack. That’s a very different experience than I’ve had the last 20 years. This was not about an obstruction in my intestines, at […]

Gut Check
Yesterday’s agenda was medical, an appointment with my surgeon and then PT. I have the commute across the Bronx down pat, I got to the sign-in desk exactly on time. I am stupidly proud of my punctuality and commuting skills. I keep telling you that I’m an idiot, why won’t you listen? Good news from […]

License to Kill
My therapist’s office called this morning; she is sick and has to cancel. This means I’ve had no therapy four of five weeks. It might be five of six. I was sick once, this is her second time sick, she had a vacation day, and there was Good Friday. In addition my psychiatrist had to […]
I decided to move my day up by half an hour. That’s nothing, people make that kind of change every weekend. I move up my day three and a half hours when WFUV has its member drives. Yet I’ve been tired the two days since I made the change. Maybe it’s coincidence and it’s just […]
For years I’ve set my alarm on weekday mornings for 8:30. I decided last night to move my schedule up half an hour and wake up at 8:00. The alarm went off, I woke up, turned off the alarm, and fell right back to sleep and didn’t wake up until 8:29. This adjustment might take […]
My plan was to see Mama’s Broke, one of my top NERFA discoveries. They are a trad duo from Nova Scotia. Google Maps said I would be a little late but I managed to do better than it thought possible. When I arrived I saw Howard in the audience. He loves Canadian bands and I had recommended that he go.

We Got You Covered
Ahh, the pleasure of writing my blog on my computer. This is the way things are supposed to be. I’m still recovering from the WFUV member drive but we’ll see if the comfort of familiar surroundings makes itself felt in the writing. I was scheduled to work only a half day yesterday, 6 AM to […]

Barnaby Jones Bright
Last night I did the same thing I did the previous evening, I went to see Barnaby Bright, this time at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 2. As has been happening too often I had subway problems so I didn’t have time to go to the newish Lower East Side Trader Joe’s for the first time […]
