I have old business I forgot to write about. First, I got my stimulus direct deposit! Not only that but I got a personal letter from some guy whose handwriting was illegible but was ostensibly Donald Trump. He is jealous because four years ago I wrote about my daily emails from my close personal friends, […]

I want to write, I skipped yesterday. I didn’t just skip writing yesterday; I feel like I skipped the entire day. I was going to go shopping but never left the house. I was going to finish writing my final 20 postcards to send to voters who might no longer be registered to vote, and […]

Peace in Our Time
I’m supposed to write what I’m thinking about so today I’ll write about the murder of George Floyd and the aftermath even though I’m loathe to enter the fray. Everybody is writing about it, why should I? Why should I invite blowback? Because it feels intellectually dishonest for me to avoid it. WQXR is broadcasting […]

Nirvana and Voting
Yesterday’s excitement was making blackened chicken breast for dinner. I know that’s not exactly exciting but at least it’s spicy. I used to buy Cajun seasoning, now I just throw on a mixture of cayenne, paprika, black pepper, and garlic salt, in no fixed quantities. It ends up being cheaper and just as good. No […]
I just did good. My therapist says I should acknowledge that. I don’t want to make the announcement here as I’m just a facilitator, but I just got the people together for a streaming show. I was going to do the tech stuff myself but realized we could afford to pay somebody who will do […]

My Nose
Another day that got away from me. I have something of an excuse. I woke up several times in the night. Once I woke up shivering. I had kicked off my covers, but it wasn’t cold enough for me to shiver. My brain was telling my body to raise its internal temperature. I get that […]

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 […]

Cooking Trump’s Goose
Will I end up writing about how I have nothing to write about? I’ll get the obvious out of the way first. I’m on a streak of perfectly cooked meals. On Tuesday night I made something super simple, a burger and fries. All burgers and fries are not created equal. I finally mastered air-fryer French […]
I’m still tired, maybe what I need is a caffeine IV drip. Maybe what I need is to make breakfast and drink coffee before I write. That’s an idea. I’m going to try it. Maybe I’ll think of something to write about as I eat and watch TV. I always watch TV when I eat. […]
Occasionally there are benefits to being me. I got an email from WFUV on Thursday asking me if I wanted tickets to see Richard Thompson on Friday night. RT is tied with Rhiannon Giddens for my favorite of favorites and I was free so of course I said yes. I went with my WFUV volunteering […]
