I should have started writing hours ago. Why didn’t I? I have even less initiative than usual. I have to fight that. No use beating myself up, let’s start writing. My victory today was calling to make an appointment for my next infusion. It’s due a week from Saturday. I wasn’t even sure if I […]

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’m having more social contact while social distancing than I did antepandemic. It’s not even close. I said I was going to call someone every day but now I’m getting phone calls too. I had phone therapy yesterday afternoon. I told my therapist that she counted as that day’s phone call. Shortly after we hung […]
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 […]
Biden My Time
Let’s get the important think over first. I called the New York Department of Health about getting recertified for Medicaid and getting on emergency Medicaid for the month of March. Turns out that it will be taken care of tomorrow when I go to my insurance company Health First and get back on their plan. […]
Welcome to a rare early afternoon edition of Wise Madness. My soundtrack is WFUV‘s Sunday Supper hosted by John Platt. At least when I start. It was a long day and it might take more than the show’s remaining 45 minutes for me finish. It was long because I went on four county, two state, […]
This is going to be difficult to write. I’m having an outbreak of annoyance with people and I’ve been expressing this annoyance. I’m not being overcritical, my critiques are right on as far as I can see, even in retrospect. The problem is that I’ve been too free to express them. Saying something stupid is […]
The topic of today’s sermon is intellectual honesty. This was supposed to develop naturally out of the theory I proposed yesterday that our missing socks fall through an interdimensional vortex where they form the raw material for new universes. I came up with that theory and the connection to intellectual honesty while I was in […]
Back to the Future
It’s a good thing when I don’t write about my health. Today I’m going to write about my health. I threw my back out on Friday. I wasn’t even sure I was using the term correctly until double checked with Google. It means I strained a muscle in my back. I did it just reaching […]
Yesterday was not a good mental health day; I didn’t do anything. I lost myself on Facebook. I am not one of those people that thinks it’s toxic. I love Facebook. It’s made my life better. Perhaps because of my own problems I was getting annoyed with people yesterday. No, that’s not true. I always […]
