Last night I saw Tracy Grammer and Jim Henry give an amazing concert. Shame on me for waiting until 9:46 PM the next day to write about it. I have an excuse to not write it in the morning but that’s it. They played at the Troubadour Acoustic Concert Series in Deep Dark New Jersey, […]
Today I’m finally going to finish writing about seeing Kittel & Co. and Maeve Gilchrist on Saturday night; yes, ancient history. We’ll start with a recap, sorry there’s no “skip recap” option. On Saturday Dan and I went to see Alkemie on the upper East side. That ended around 4:30. The next stop on our […]
Dateline the teacher’s lounge. My new plan is to sit here with earbuds to shut out the world while I write. I don’t particularly like it. A weird thing is that I can’t work at a desk. My shoulder and arm are much better but I still need to have my elbow supported while I […]
On Thursday night I saw Dar’s annual Christmas week show at the Bell House. Thanks to the plague this is the first one in three years. Slowly my traditions return. COVID-19 isn’t over, but life goes on. It’s all about balancing risks and rewards. How did I balance? I went but wore an N95 mask […]
The moment you’ve all been waiting for has arrived. I’m announcing my Most Exciting Albums of 2022. You can call it Top Albums or Best Albums if you like but I chose on the basis of how much they excited me. They are defined by the divine spark, and the effect that has on me, […]
I’m back! My shoulder and back are still sore but I am going to try and write today because I’ve been busy and want to catch up. Writing is good for my soul. I was going to write that writing is good for my mental health which seems more fitting for an anti-mystic rationalist. The […]
I told my therapist something that turned out to not be true. I told her that I’d blog right after our session, before I catch up on the TV I’ve missed or eating, because I’m trying to get back in the habit and I want My Gentle Readers to know how important they are to […]
Once again I’m writing from the couch in the teacher’s lounge. I miss having an office. I’m alone now so I can get things done. Have I done anything exciting since my last post? I made up the precalculus midterm. I was a little out of practice and had to recreate some of my methods […]
Dateline School: I’m trying something new, writing during a free period at school. I have no time for writing when I get home and I’m often too tired. Let’s see if this can become the new normal. Unfortunately I’m on a school issued Mac and don’t have Word. I’m writing this on Google Docs. I’ll […]
My plan was to write during the Met game, but I got too involved in the game. The Mets are now up 8-1 in the 8th I can pull myself away. And with that the Mets go up 11-1. I am an essential member of the Mets. I missed last night’s game and they got […]
