Last night I went to a training session to be an Elizabeth Warren volunteer. You’ll be hearing a lot more about Liz on Wise Madness and my Facebook and Instagram accounts. Notice that she’s now Liz; she’s gone straight from a last name to a nickname. I’m more comfortable supporting Liz than Warren especially as […]

Last night I went to the third annual Hudson West Folk Festival. That’s my excuse for not writing yesterday, I’m the head of the merch volunteers, well duh, so I wanted to get there early. Turns out I couldn’t do much merch stuff for the first two hours but helped with set up or perhaps […]
Last night I had a musical doubleheader. Months ago Emily Mure announced the date for her EP release, September 12. Then Joe Iadanza told me the date for his album release, September 12. I thought I had something for that date but wasn’t sure what. Then I saw it was Emily’s EP release and was […]
I’m in the midst of a socializing frenzy. After going weeks without seeing another soul I’m now seeing friends almost every day. Yesterday’s event was Joe’s 70th birthday party. For the fourth time in two weeks I found myself heading out to Allison and Joe’s house on the wrong side of the Hudson, aka New […]
I’m getting better at getting out and doing things that aren’t music, my safe space. Last night Katherine and I went to see Othello in Bryant Park. I love their picnic event series. There are chairs on the lawn to the sides of the stage but they provide blankets for those that want to sit […]
Yesterday I did something I have not done in countless years; I went to the movies with Carey. This is noteworthy as it is something that we use to do just about every week. My cataracts were a big part of this, I couldn’t enjoy movies when I couldn’t see. There was more though, just […]
I’m Not a Good Uncle
Yesterday I met my grandniece Joanie, the daughter of my nephew Max and his wife Caila. It’s been seven months because they live in LA. Max is East visiting his folks. I couldn’t make it when he was in New York with my sister Alison so yesterday I went up to Pleasantville where we met […]
I’ve become a late in the day blogger. I prefer writing in the morning because I think that’s easier for My Gentle Readers. Don’t blame me, blame my friends that have eaten into my blogging time. Yesterday Bri called me, today I met Carolyn for lunch. I wouldn’t normally want to blame my friends but […]
See You Latte
How much do I love My Gentle Readers? I didn’t get enough sleep last night and now I’m fighting to stay awake. Dark Crystal: The Age of Resistance is beckoning me on Netflix. But I can’t sleep or get immersed in Dark Crystal until I blog. Right after I wrote that sentence I fell asleep. […]
I have so much catching up to do that I feel intimidated about starting to blog. If I don’t I’ll fall further behind and be even more intimidated. At least I’m recognizing that and writing. Now if I could only do that about important things. Sorry for the short shrift I’m going to have to […]
