Yesterday was Friday and that means therapy. Does everyone look forward to therapy as much as I do? Is it good or bad that I enjoy it? I hope it’s good. The therapist does challenge me and give me homework. She helps even when I’m not at therapy. The two main ways I process my […]

It’s been four weeks and one day since my surgery. My body is not back to normal but I’m back to living my life and not taking it easy. Going out makes it a lot easier to write a blog about my life. Last night’s adventure was seeing Nobody’s Girl at Rockwood Music Hall. Nobody’s […]

Mystery of the Wax Museum
Last night I went to see David Wax Museum at Common Ground Coffeehouse in Hastings. I wanted to write about that first thing this morning but I couldn’t. I’m posting late today but I have a good excuse; I went to the ophthalmologist this morning and he dilated my eyes. I couldn’t see well enough […]
I did things worth writing about yesterday. I went to see Emily Mure and the Young Novelist at Pete’s Candy Store. I love when my world fits together like a jigsaw puzzle. I love Emily as a musician and a person. I love Graydon and Laura as musicians and people. I know the independently of […]

(The Sea)²
Yesterday was my first full doubleheader since surgery; I went to therapy up in Harrison then to see The Sea The Seat at Spiral Sounds Concerts in Jersey City. That involved a lot of traveling, I knew it would be pushing my body. The trip to therapy went smoothly. I made the bus that takes […]

Expedition to Hastings
I went to the Common Ground Coffeehouse last night to see Joshua Garcia, Lisa Bastoni, and Vincent Cross. This was my first expedition to hear music since my surgery. My energy is still limited. I did not have the energy to write yesterday so I have to catch up on Friday too. My internal experiences […]
I woke up before seven this morning and did not go back to bed. I never do that. It might have something to do with the fact that I fell asleep watching TV around ten last night. I have an alarm on my phone that goes off at midnight to remind me to go to […]

Chicks-fil-A
Last night I went to see Sharon Goldman at Rockwood Music Hall. The new norm as that timing the subway ride is a crap shoot so I can’t cut things as close as I’d like. I arrived at Rockwood at 6:02 instead of 5:55. Sharon was already into her first song. She started right on […]

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 […]
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.
