Wise Madness
I have more time today than I planned. I was going to have my therapy in person but 95º weather argues against walking five miles in the middle of the day. I’ll do it by phone today. Ugh, my next one is at 9:30 AM. I’ll have to get up early if I want to […]
Yesterday’s adventure involved going into deepest darkest Brooklyn aka Bed Stuy. I went with friends to see Madeleine Peyroux at LunÀtico. For reasons that I don’t understand I’ve never been there before. How have I not heard live music at one of the City’s premiere small venues? It’s even named after me, unless they were […]
Yesterday I did two things that I always say I need to do more of, see live classical music and hang out with Erika. We went to see The Mostly Mozart Festival at Damrosch Park. That’s the park and bandshell in Lincoln Center. It was part of the Restart Stages, referring to the restart of […]
Yesterday was another busy day. It started with going up to Harrison NY in Westchester for therapy. I walked from the train station to the hospital as the stupid Westchester bus runs only once an hour. I of course don’t mind that as I’m trying to walk every day. It was nice seeing my therapist […]
Live music’s back and Gordon got it. Yesterday was as Gordon a day as you can have; there is even an idiot story. The Kennedys did their first in person show in 16 months so I was there even though getting there and home again involved walking 7 miles. The show was at Rye Town […]
Today is my birthday but I have nothing planned. Yesterday Carey and Barbara took me out to dinner at Junior’s for my birthday. I suspect that I have celebrated my birthday more often with Carey than with anyone else. I’ve known him since 1977. I screwed up and went to the wrong Juniors first, there’s […]
Hallelujah! Last night I got another important part of my life back, my first show since COVID-19 at my home-away-from-home, Rockwood Music Hall. You can tell Rockwood is important, it gets its own macro. The artists were, Michael Daves, Tony Trischka, and Bruce Molsky; I’m starting off with Bluegrass and Old Timey. It was a […]
There’s no joy in Metsville. Yesterday was one of the most painful losses I even attended. The Mets scored five runs before there were two outs in the bottom of the first. That’s great. But they never scored and hardly got any hits after that. In the meantime, the Pirates, the worst team in baseball, […]
Here’s a peek inside my brain. I just read something on Facebook that got me mad. Ten seconds later I have no idea what it was. I’m not going to go back and try and find it. It was neither politics nor baseball, the two topics that generate the most posts that offend me. Guess […]
