Majority of One

Why haven’t I written yet today? I know, it’s because I’m an idiot. I also didn’t take my walk. I put it off so long that it was already getting dark. I have to adjust my schedule to Standard Time.  Remember way back when that I had a disagreement with two New York Police Department […]

In In The Cold

Life is not fair. I’ve been living carefully for a year and a half. I wear a mask when I’m out. I’ve avoiding spending time with unvaccinated people. I’ve been vaccinated and boosted for COVID-19 and got my flu vaccination last week. So, what happened? I started feeling a scratchy throat late the night before […]

Cataracts, Crepes, and Radar

Has the return to standard time got my circadian rhythm in better alignment with the clocks? When’s the last time I started writing as early as 9:19 AM? This is when I want to start writing. Yesterday was a long day. Two of my friends had cataract surgery and I was their escort from the […]

The One Commandment

I didn’t write yesterday, I hate when I do that, now I must catch up. On Sunday night I went to my first Knick game since the COVID-19 lockdown. They were good about requiring proof of vaccination but not about masks. Getting in was a mess as they checked the vaccination status; I missed the […]

Indulgences

I saw two concerts the last two nights, Dar Williams with Crys Matthews on Thursday and the Murphy Beds with Ivan Goff on Saturday. By skipping yesterday, I now can’t do either show justice, especially when I have personal things to discuss too. I’m drinking my second perfect cup of coffee as I write, that […]

Blips on a Screen

I started writing an hour and a half ago. I said I was going “old school and blogging before breakfast and coffee.”  As soon as I wrote that I craved breakfast and coffee. Food and coffee win most arguments with me. I had sausageeggandcheese on naan and donuts for dessert. When I have it on […]

I’m practicing what I preach this afternoon. With the new strains of COVID-19 we need to be even more careful. I found KN95 masks 10 for $10 and bought a pack. They don’t arrive until Tuesday. My plan was to go to Aldi today. The bus stops much closer to me on Sundays and I’m […]

Visions of Paradise

I failed at dinner last night. I had planned on making dinner around 8 PM then I got a notification that Tribal Mischief was doing an interview with Alisa Amador on their Twitch channel at 8. During the intros I ran into the kitchen and made myself a peanut butter on chocolate chip brioche sandwich. […]

GI Bill of Health

I’m getting a ridiculously late start writing today. Yesterday is no longer fresh in my mind but I’ll do my best to remember it. If I forget about it let’s blame it on the meds. It has nothing to do with the meds, but I was told I can get away with saying that. Yesterday […]
