Wise MadnessLast night I went to see Our Band at Barbès (bar-bez’). My original plan was to have dinner at Mile End Deli, the shopping at Trader Joe’s then the show. I left the house late and the train was slow. I ended up going straight to Barbès and got there just a few minutes before […]
How did it get so late? Oh yeah, that time thing; it even passes when I’m taking a nap. I hate this not getting enough sleep business. Enough of that, I have a tale to tell. It’s full of sound and fury and told by an idiot. When I left the house I knew that […]
You guys are in luck, I went out to hear music last night, so I have something to listen to. I went to see, The Whiskey Charmers at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3. The timing worked out oddly, I wanted to do some food shopping first but I left a little late and then the […]
Sorry I missed blogging yesterday; the reason is what I’m going to write about today. This is going to be another vision/health edition of Wise Madness. Let’s recap where we were. Monday: Cataract surgery Tuesday: Shield is removed from eye and I see 20:25 and not only don’t need my glasses to see my computer […]
I woke up this morning with a very sore shoulder and I’m typing this through the pain. That is how much I love My Gentle Readers. But I’m not crazy, I’m taking acetaminophen; I’ll be right back after a word from our sponsor. It doesn’t work that fast but I feel better, placebo effect. I’m […]
I owe you an apology; I didn’t blog yesterday. I got a call from Jane that she needed my help and I went over there instead. I hope you managed to survive without my words of wisdom. I’m helping Jane clear out her apartment. Anybody know how to get rid of a collection of vintage […]
Sadly I’m back to having breathing problems which leads to me having sleeping problems. I often can’t breathe through my nose which leads to sleep apnea. I wake up unrested. When it is at its worst I will weak up in the night and feel like I’m being smothered. It always takes me a second […]
Yesterday was a busy day, therapy, my first time at an old restaurant, and seeing The Sea The Sea at City Vineyard. It was my first time at the venue. The thing that makes it a long day is that therapy is in Harrison, quite a bit north of New York City, and City Vineyard is in Tribeca, far south Manhattan.
Last night’s adventures started late, I went to see TAARKA do a 10 PM show at Pete’s Candy Store. That’s in Williamsburg so I had to leave considerably before then. I guess I should point out that Pete’s Candy Story is not a Candy Store; it’s a bar with a dedicated room in the back […]
Dateline Amtrak: I’m writing this on the train to Boston, we just pulled out of Bridgeport. Unlike the bus the Wi-Fi and electric outlet work well. This is so much more pleasant. If the Bolt Bus didn’t raise their prices for Thanksgiving I’d still use them, but as they do, Amtrak is worth the extra […]
