Boost Me Up

I can’t believe this entire day slipped away from me. It’s 9 PM and I’ve hardly done anything, I haven’t even blogged. I have a readymade excuse, but I’m not using it as that would be a lie. I must be honest with My Gentle Readers. So, let’s move back to yesterday and my excuse […]

Everyone is Good

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 […]

The Men Not Behind the Mask

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 […]

Eye of the Pyramid

What adventures have I had since I posted yesterday? Yesterday something momentous happened on yesterday’s Donut Walk™, I got to Krispy Kreme and didn’t go in! It was just a walk. Why? Three reasons. First, I didn’t really feel like a donut. Second, I’ve been working on walking faster and didn’t want to break my […]

Does This Mean I’m Magnetic?

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 […]

The Return of My Life

Live music’s back and Gordon got it. Yesterday was as Gordon a day as you can have; there is even an idiot story. The Kennedys did their first in person show in 16 months so I was there even though getting there and home again involved walking 7 miles. The show was at Rye Town […]

Doctor on My Birthday

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 […]

Who are the Lab Rats?

After two nights out I stayed home yesterday. That’s not true, I took my Donut Walk™; not only that it became a Donut/French Fry Walk™. Checkers gave everyone with their app a free large order of fries. Checkers is next to Krispy Kreme, I got two delicious fried foods for free. While the 3.8 miles  […]

My Gut: literal and figurative

Guess who is having another intestinal obstruction episode? Come on guess. Nobody? It’s me. I woke up feeling fine. I was hungry and ready to eat. I got up, stopped at the bathroom, and boom, it hit me. It’s relatively mild but it’s still there. As this is two weeks in a row I think […]

Viscera vs Brain

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 […]
