It is ridiculous that I’ve waited this long to write today but that is where my head is out. I’ve been dysfunctional of late. I’m not going to dwell on that and instead discuss what I’ve done the last few days. On Sunday I made another pilgrimage to Ditmas Park to hear a porch concert […]

Great, I’m posting later and later. Now it’s 10:32. There was a time that I’d write when I got home which was often well after midnight. Thanks to COVID-19 I turn into a pumpkin at 1 AM when the subway stops running. I have no excuse for waiting so long to write today. I could […]
Good morning, well good afternoon, would you believe good evening? I’m writing this only 12 hours late, it’s 9:33 PM. Remember the days I would bang out an entry every day before noon. There were semesters I banged them out before 8 AM. COVID-19 has a strange affect on time. It must have to do […]
I used to write every day before eating breakfast. It’s now 8:09 PM and I’m just starting to write. I’ll eat dinner when I’m done. I’m writing while watching the Met game. They are up 9-1 so I won’t feel bad about missing some of it to cook. Yesterday I was feeling blah. I had […]
I didn’t have a good night’s sleep, but I had a great breakfast, chocolate chip brioche French toast, eggs, and sausage, and two strong cups of Marie’s coffee. Marie’s Fresh Roasted Coffee Beans & Gifts is an official member of my pantheon and so gets name checked. The poor sleep is coming too often of […]
I went out and did exciting things yesterday, at least by pandemic standards. I should be champing at the bit to write yet I’ve waiting till the afternoon. It is now half an hour since I wrote that. My bit is unchamped. I did some research. The original idiom was “champ at the bit.” The […]
I’m going to have to stop writing in 15 minutes to watch Karen Dahlstrom streaming but as I’ve procrastinated all day and didn’t write yesterday I figured it’s best I get started. I’ve had a second glass of ice coffee; the second was actually ice creamed coffee so I should have enough energy. I didn’t […]

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 […]
Sorry that I’ve been MIA since Monday. I had a bad week; to which you should respond, “If you had a bad week why should I suffer?” Anyone know where that’s from? What if I told you it was said by Menachem the beggar? Yes, that’s right, it’s from Fiddler on the Roof. It’s in […]
