Remember Tulsa

How have I not written for three days? Sure, I haven’t done much but that’s no excuse. I honestly don’t know why I didn’t write yesterday. I just checked to see if I wrote something and forgot to post it, no, didn’t happen. The first two skipped days were because I was sick. I simply […]

Tidbits of My Life

I did not go for a walk yesterday and was sleepy all morning today? Is that cause and effect? Do I need my daily exposure to light? I don’t know and I don’t know how to figure it out. The sleepiness can also be from depression. In any even it’s better for me in every […]

Getting Ripped

I’m writing a rare pre-9AM edition of Wise Madness. I used to do this all the time. I’d write before I left home to teach. Last I left you I said that I would call a friend and try to hang out today. That didn’t happen,  I listened to the Met game instead. I don’t […]

A Dinner with a View

Yesterday was Friday so I went to the Sunset Singing Circle at Wagner Park. This made four weeks in a row and I still get a kick out of each one. I changed it up by leaving earlier and walking down from the Broadway Lafayette station. I was going to precede it with my donut […]

Music At Rivendell

Hold on to your hats, I went out Sunday, that’s two days out of the three! Yesterday I headed south to the land of Ditmas Park in central Brooklyn. The majority of my subway rides since the pandemic started were to there. This time was special, I went to my first house concert après la […]

The Singing Idiot

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends. Do you think EL&P would work on Gord’s Gold? I will take that dirty look as a no. Do I have Gentle Readers that have no idea what I’m talking about? It’s the Emerson, Lake, & Palmer song Karn Evil 9: 1st Impression Part 2. […]

Preparation Radar

I’ve eaten breakfast and I’m drinking my coffee and starting writing before noon, I’m ahead of the game. Yesterday’s adventure was not my Donut Walk™ but the even better Coffee & Donut Walk™. That does mean I ordered a coffee and donut someplace. First I made my usual walk to Krispy Kreme but then continued […]

The Tale of the Missing Phone

A poor start to today. First I slept until noon. I think the reason is I forgot to use a nasal strip last night so had trouble breathing. Then as I was getting out of bed I dropped my phone and it fell into another dimension. I spent an hour looking for it. I assumed […]

Friday Nights are for Singing

A miracle. I’m writing in the morning before breakfast and even coffee. I used to do this all the time, maybe I can get back to it. It helps that yesterday I went out and did things. It was Friday in May or June so if you ever want to bet where I’ll be bet […]

Triangle Trade

Wow, another nighttime edition of Gord’s Gold, maybe this will become a thing. I have not talked about food enough of late. I thought of that when I was eating my eggs Horvendile this morning. This was a new variation. As always it’s two poached eggs topped with cheese and ham on top of some […]
