Blogging Gord's Gold Television

Looks Like a Penguin

I was about to record Gord’s Gold when the people above me started playing music. It’s my own fault, I prepared the show on Thanksgiving; I should have recorded it yesterday. I wasted far too much time. What was meant to be my early afternoon trip to Trader Joe’s did not start until after 4:00. […]

Another Thanksgiving Dinner That Couldn’t Be Beat

I’m home, relaxed, and ready to write. How did I spend my Thanksgiving? Alone in my apartment that I never left. I never got dressed. That’s always a great luxury. I had long satisfying conversations with two friends which kept the loneliness at bay. For dinner I ordered a duck from Chinese restaurant via GrubHub. […]

Venn I Am in Charge

If I’m going to procrastinate I might as well, do it writing. Not going out much is tough on my writing muscles. Maybe I should entrap the muse Calliope and force her to give me inspiration. That’s a Sandman reference but it’s deeper as Gaiman was referencing me. Madoc is the character that holds Calliope […]

Madoc and Me

I’m once again trying to write while watching the Mets. This will happen more often as I start my new job. This is a tough Met game. They fell behind 4-0, tied it up, now just allowed a three-run-homer to fall behind 7-4, It’s only the fourth inning. Fasten your seatbelts, this is going to […]

Today is not going as smoothly as yesterday. I stayed in bed an extra hour and I’m not blogging until 1:30 PM. On the bright side I made French toast for breakfast and watched the first episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. It didn’t sound exciting to me but that’s what I thought of Wandavision […]

Call Me Matt Murdoch

Mea Culpa, I’ve gotten terrible about updating. The last two days I found myself in the land of the lotus eaters for hours in the morning, the hypnopompia. This is why I have never used drugs; I have an addictive personality. It is so pleasant that I can’t tear myself away. I’m on a run […]

I’m having too many of these posting dry spells. As I always say it would help if I left the house some. A feels like temperature of 7º argues against that happening today. Perhaps I’ll run to the local supermarket, I need a few things. I’m not going to walk my usual three plus miles. […]

Christmas with Good Vibrations

Whee Festivus everyone. As I just wrote an old friend I often celebrated with, this has been a very Christmassy Festivus, even though I didn’t carol or see Robinson and Rohe’s Longest Winter show. In lieu of caroling Katherine and I met at the Union Square Holiday Market. Quality time with friends and family is […]

The Good Old Day?

Today’s idiot story, I forgot to zip last night’s Gord’s Gold into one file then upload it to Mixcloud. It’s uploading now but that means it’s late. I promised people it would be up at noon, now it’s 2:03 PM. There’s ten minutes more to go. Since we cut the cable cord uploads go slowly. […]

Mental Health Downs and Ups

I can’t wait to blog tomorrow as I have my infusion in the morning, so I’ll put out a rare late evening edition of Wise Madness. There was a time when that was the norm, and this would be considered early. I’d get home at 1AM and then blog. I should get back to some […]
