No Work

I didn’t get the job. I decided to tear the band-aid off. I didn’t even expect to hear from them until next week instead I heard yesterday. I have no idea what happened as the interview went so well and I got nothing but praise from the interviewers. I won’t speculate, at least I won’t […]

Mmm Sweet Garlic

It’s 9:08 AM and I’m writing, how did that happen? I actually started before 9:00 but the insert time keyboard shortcut alt+shift+T wasn’t working. Instead that was opening the snipping tool. It wasn’t just in word but in all apps. I couldn’t figure out what happened until I googles alt+shift+T and discovered that happens in […]

Woe Be Gone I Saw Debi Smith

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 […]

Follow the Bouncing Microwave

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 […]

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 […]

Health and Dreams; Who Leads Whom?

I have a busy day today so this will have to be short. Yesterday I went to in-person therapy. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize it till I got there but it was only a 30-minute session. The trip takes an hour and a half each way. On the bright side it’s good for my physical health, […]

Boost Me Up

I can’t believe this entire day slipped away from me. It’s 9 PM and I’ve hardly done anything, I haven’t even blogged. I have a readymade excuse, but I’m not using it as that would be a lie. I must be honest with My Gentle Readers. So, let’s move back to yesterday and my excuse […]

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 […]

Peerless Music on a Pier

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 […]
