Biden My Time With Kamala

I should be able to write today and not be introspective. I was going to say, “annoyingly introspective,” but I’m not confident enough to make that joke. I am confident enough to reference making that joke. I need that one step of removal. That works for me. I’m not thinking of deleting all this and […]

Freakazoids from Beyond Infinity

In addition to everything else COVID-19 makes it difficult for me to blog. “Dear diary, I stayed home yesterday.” Did I at least cook something interesting? I had blackened chicken again. That’s interesting the first time, but not the second time in a week. I go on social media and see how wonderful people are […]

RUNAtic on the Grass

Thanks everyone for all the encouraging reactions I got to my last post. It makes a difference. That’s as far as I got writing yesterday. I still don’t have this procrastination thing beat. I’ve spent so much time listening to streaming concerts the last few days. The big thing was the GODERICH CELTIC ROOTS FESTIVAL. […]

Music and the Garden

Usually I’ve had nothing to write about in the age of COVID-19. Then I was too busy to write yesterday about what happened on Saturday and now I have too much to write about. After all that I bet this will be short. I can pretty much summarize it in one sentence; “I love my […]

Bus Ride Revelation

I’m listening to We’re About 9 now so I should say, I’m “Writing Again.” I wonder what fraction of My Gentle Readers get that? There was a time it would have been most of them. I’ll explain it before finish. What’s the excitement since I last wrote? My therapy was canceled today, and I couldn’t […]

Theory of Mind Failure

I’ve been bad about writing. I’ll make up for now. I’m starting to write while I’m listening to Suzie Vinnick. That’s tough because I like watching Suzie and I like heckling via chat. I have no idea why any musician puts up with me. I really do know, it’s because I make it clear that […]

The Birth of a Blogger

I’ve procrastinated enough, time for a report on my birthday. Let’s start with breakfast. I wasn’t sure of what treat to make myself then Becky Bliss sent me birthday wishes that included a peanut butter omelet. That’s what I ate. Becky didn’t give me the omelet; she gave me the idea. I haven’t had that […]

Gentle Arms of Dave Carter

A rare nighttime edition of Wise Madness. This is tough as I’m listening to Tracy Grammer and Jim Henry do a Dave Carter tribute. If you want to call Dave the greatest songwriter of his generation I’ll agree. If you want to call him the greatest song writer ever I won’t argue. Everyone thinks of […]

I’ve been wasting my time for two days, it’s time to write. What exciting has gone on in the last two days? I got to sit backstage at the streaming version John Platt’s On Your Radar Tuesday night. I now I have to cut the videos into individual songs so I can post them on […]

Who Was That Unmasked Man?

I should have written this two hour ago, better late than never. I had another good day yesterday. Not as exciting as Sunday when I heard live music and at a restaurant with a friend. Yesterday’s accomplishments were sitting in for Tragedy Ann’s John Platt’s On Your Radar tech rehearsal. Rob Hinkal directs the show. […]
