Blogging while minimalizing your time outside is not easy. I could write every day, I sat in my recliner and watched TV but that would soon get old. I do cheat and tell you what I ate and who I spoke to, or is that who I ate and what I spoke to? No, for […]

I have wall to wall streaming concerts today; I am going to attempt to write as I listen. Of course, that means not watching so every once in a while I need to see if people are talking to me. I’ve been talking to people much more often then when I’m not social distancing so […]
I lucked out. I have to leave the house today to pick up a prescription and it’s a beautiful day. I will take a long walk and get exercise. I just have to figure out where to walk. You’ll find that out when I write tomorrow. I’ll continue to be good and keep updating. I […]
My life is so boring now that I should do some creative writing. I did write a poem while in the bathroom at 6:30 AM. I’m surprised I remember that I wrote it; I forgot until this moment. I recorded it as a voice memo on my phone. I think this is the first time […]
Oh no, I don’t think I did any interesting food yesterday. The only innovation was cooking my cheddarwurst in the deep fryer instead on my stovetop grill. This was not to make them taste better but to save effort. I used the deep fryer anyway to make the potatoes. I figured this was more efficient […]
As I recount my life in isolation, Wise Madness is becoming even more of a music and food blog than usual. I’m writing this while watching the Kennedys streaming on YouTube. I get great music and time with friends at the same time. Of course, it makes it hard to concentrate on my writing but […]
I didn’t mount an expedition yesterday or call a friend. I did receive two calls. One was from my therapist; out session today is going to be by phone. I told her weeks ago this would happen. It’s how you stop a disease from spreading. This was much tougher on people before the internet and […]
Yesterday I went on an expedition for groceries. I went to Aldi. When the weather’s nice I’ll walk there and take the bus home. Now because of COVID-19 I’d rather not take public transportation. I talked about this with Allison and she suggested that I wear a backpack, not the one shoulder model I usually […]
As the title shows today’s topic is compare and contrast House of Hamill and poutine. That saves me from correcting the 847 misunderstandings of medicine and economics I’ve read on FB this morning. I’m resisting even giving one liners, though many can be covered by, “I don’t think that word means what you think it […]
Blogging in the time of COVID-19 is different. My entire schedule is different. Writing in the afternoon is becoming more common. I wish it wouldn’t. Notice I’m still saying COVID-19 even if the world is saying “Novel Corona Virus.” That causes too much confusion as there are many corona viruses and what applies to one […]
