Wise Madness
It took an adventure to get me to write again. Last night I went to see the fabulous House of Hamill in Woodbridge New Jersey. Woodbridge is not close. I live in the Northern Bronx, Woodbridge is in New Jersey, on the other side of the Hudson, due west of the southern tip of Staten […]
I have not been writing because I have not been having adventures. That is not a good excuse. Days without adventures are days to write about thoughts. Those are supposed to be most important entries. It’s late, I don’t think I’m up to thoughts. I could write a potpourri, at least that’s the way I’ll […]
I’m trying something new, writing while watching the Democratic National Convention. I’m not sure why I’m watching, I dislike political speechifying. I like the way I put it yesterday, It’s pretty much the same thing as a high school pep rally. I don’t need help getting psyched for this election. I’m going to a virtual […]
I have big news but still had trouble finding the wherewithal to write. After vegetating most of the day I made a concerted effort at self-care and now I can write. Let’s start with the big news. My writing funk started when my school told me to not expect to be rehired for the fall […]
I’m officially on spring break. After my wonderful Seder on Thursday and the Mets home opener on Friday I spent the weekend without leaving the apartment. Part of that was nice, part of that was a visit from my old friends, depression and anxiety. I was going to go to Aldi but found out that […]
I’ve had a busy 24 hours. I was supposed to go to the Mets home opener on Thursday and then directly to my Seder in Connecticut. The Mets postponed the game on Wednesday because of the possibility of bad weather. If you think that 75º and sunny is bad weather, then that forecast was accurate. […]
Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Forgive me Gentle Readers for I have sinned. Last you heard from me I was planning on going to see The Ladles at Sunny’s in Red Hook Brooklyn. It had been on my calendar since it was announced. They are one of my favorite bands and I have […]
I don’t write and things happen. Let’s set the wayback machine to February 14, 2023, the place Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3. Hey Mr. Peabody, why then? That’s when John Platt presented the most recent edition of On Your Radar Sherman. I am still obsessed with 60-year-old cartoons. I have a routine now for OYR […]
I’m home, relaxed, and ready to write. How did I spend my Thanksgiving? Alone in my apartment that I never left. I never got dressed. That’s always a great luxury. I had long satisfying conversations with two friends which kept the loneliness at bay. For dinner I ordered a duck from Chinese restaurant via GrubHub. […]
Yesterday took place primarily inside my head, perhaps every day takes place primarily in my head, perhaps everybody’s day takes place primarily in their heads. I still have not decided where this entry is going but those thoughts are what yesterday was about; at least until the Met game started. I have my priorities. It […]
