Wise Madness
Yesterday’s adventure was seeing Debi Smith and Garrison Keillor at City Winery New York. That’s not how I wanted to start this, but all my English teachers taught me to put the most important idea in the first sentence. I like to work into things gradually. I got my assignment for Election Day; I’ll be […]
Wow, I’m writing this when I’m supposed to, in the morning. Maybe this is a harbinger of things to come. Now if I can get back to going to sleep earlier so I’m rested when I wake up. I just closed my eyes and almost fell asleep. I could make coffee but once I do […]
Wise Madness and Gord’s Gold are starting to blend in my head. The thoughts that I used to organize as imagined blog posts now sometimes come out as imagined things to say on Gord’s Gold. I almost started this with Welcome My Gentle Listeners. You aren’t My Gentle Listeners, you are My Gentle Readers, and […]
Time to blog about ancient history, the day before yesterday. For some bizarre reason time keeps moving even when I haven’t written about the previous day. Whoever set the rules for how time works did a shoddy job. When are the hearings for how to redesign it? I want to give my input. Let’s make […]
There was drama on the feline home front. Our cat Lefty died a week-and-a-half ago. Our other cat Dusty has been acting differently ever since. They were littermates but never close. It still changed the dynamic in the house. She started exploring new areas of the apartment, most noticeably on top of the refrigerator. I […]
Dateline: Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3 Last night marked the return of John Platt’s On Your Radar to Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3. The last in concert I went to before the lockdown was On Your Radar in March 2020. It took 18 months to return. The artists were Jefferson Berry and the UAC, Heather […]
I have more time today than I planned. I was going to have my therapy in person but 95º weather argues against walking five miles in the middle of the day. I’ll do it by phone today. Ugh, my next one is at 9:30 AM. I’ll have to get up early if I want to […]
Yesterday’s adventure involved going into deepest darkest Brooklyn aka Bed Stuy. I went with friends to see Madeleine Peyroux at LunÀtico. For reasons that I don’t understand I’ve never been there before. How have I not heard live music at one of the City’s premiere small venues? It’s even named after me, unless they were […]
Yesterday I did two things that I always say I need to do more of, see live classical music and hang out with Erika. We went to see The Mostly Mozart Festival at Damrosch Park. That’s the park and bandshell in Lincoln Center. It was part of the Restart Stages, referring to the restart of […]
I’m behind on my blogging so now I have lots to write about. I had been looking forward to Friday for months; South for Winter was playing at the Troubadour in New Jersey. Sure, that’s two hours from me but this is South for Winter, my favorite band. I’m a Snowbird, the name I came […]
