Within You Without You

Last thing I told you was that I was starting three days of volunteering at WFUV. I thought that the only way I’d have time to blog is if I could do it from the station. That plan had to be abandoned when they decided to up security on the computers we use to take […]

Radar in a Roman Field

Welcome to a not feeling human until afternoon edition of Wise Madness. I discussed this with my psychiatrist yesterday and it finally got through my sleep dulled head that this might not be depression; that the reason I’m so sleepy is my sleep apnea. Depression and anxiety might exacerbate it, but I bet the main […]

Live From There

I had good reasons to start writing this late. I was out late, I slept late, I had to watch part one of Crisis on Infinite Earths, then the aftershow, then I cleaned out the fridge and took a shower. That took me to 40 minutes ago. I have no excuse for not writing then. […]

Sharing Snot

Dateline BoltBus: I’m on the bus back to New York. We are still in South Station. The data plan is so limited I’m going to just use it to post his. I’ll use my phone for everything else. Once again it was pointed out that I forgot something very important in my last entry, our […]

Thankful for Thanksgiving

Dateline Van Merc Hill: I’m posting from the couch at Emily’s house, sitting with her daughter Maggie, watching the Macy’s Day Parade. Yes, I used the abridged commercial name for the parade. Deal with it. The only part I paid attention to was Hadestown. I pointed out Liam to the girls, there are four of […]

Charlie Get On the MBTA!

I’m safely ensconced in Van Merc Hill. The trip from the Bronx to Southborough MA took me 8.5 hours door to door. I could have gone to Europe. Emily and I decided that next year we have to find a better way. This was sort of ridiculous. The leg from Boston South Station to Southborough […]

It’s Always Sunny in Kathryn’s Place

I have two cups of coffee in me, so I should have enough focus to write without dozing off zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz That was a joke, but I have dozed off while writing and found pages and pages of single letters repeated from my fingers resting on […]

Feathers and Banana Nose

I spent much of my therapy session discussing how I am having problems staying awake. I slept till noon this morning. I went to bed at 1 AM. This is becoming a real problem. How did I get by at NERFA? I’ve had two cups of coffee and if I let myself, I could fall […]

Radar Delayed is Not Radar Denied

Sorry I’m a day late writing about John Platt’s On Your Radar, at least I’m not a dollar short. This comes from not being able to finish the blog on my NERFA discoveries on Tuesday, so I had to write that yesterday. Good thing I didn’t do anything worth writing about yesterday. I never even […]

The Discovery Channel

I’ve been busy on another project. Now let’s see if I have time to write about my NERFA discoveries. The order within tiers is alphabetical I’ll use my usual Tier classification. Tier 1 Les Royal Pickles: As you can pick up from their name, they are French Canadian, and they are loads of fun. Their […]
