A Dime Bag of Anxiety

Today’s goal, to finish recording Gord’s Gold  before midnight, not start at midnight. I’ve wasted too much time already. I have to do more research before I start. Blogging is officially procrastination. There should be a word for productive procrastination. I have done everything else for the show, programmed the music, and made the excel […]

I Like to Talk

I didn’t post yesterday and did not have a good excuse. I have plenty to do today but I will write anyway. It’s being constructive as a form of procrastination. I know I’m not the only one that does that. How many of you have cleaned your house as a way of avoiding another chore? […]

Blips on a Screen

I started writing an hour and a half ago. I said I was going “old school and blogging before breakfast and coffee.”  As soon as I wrote that I craved breakfast and coffee. Food and coffee win most arguments with me. I had sausageeggandcheese on naan and donuts for dessert. When I have it on […]

Tutoring My Own Horn

I need to stop scrolling and start writing. Good thing I woke up early this morning so even with all the procrastination I’m starting to blog before 1 PM. My therapist has me looking at what I accomplish, not what I don’t. I’ve accomplished having cold toes. It’s been cool in the apartment. Good thing […]

I missed writing yesterday. Let’s see if I can remember anything I wanted to say. It was in my head for a second then it ran away. It must be scary in my head. Did I leave the house? I don’t think so. Google maps agrees. The weather isn’t good and COVID-19 rates are up, […]

Good Win and Good Winners

I had therapy today for the first time in two weeks. For the most part I reported progress I made. That can make blogging more difficult. I’m working on not calling people idiots; that’s like quitting smoking in tobacco shop. I can still call myself an idiot, I often do. Do I have any idiot […]

Cat Looks

I’ve had a rough health day. I slept until 11:20 and my stomach didn’t feel right. I didn’t eat until 2:00 and then I fell asleep for a few more hours. My guess is that this is another manifestation of my Crohn’s even though I have no active inflammation. I know that as my MRI […]

I am often tempted to start my blog with “Good Morning Campers!” Do you know why? I’m thinking of Tommy’s Holiday Camp. I’m hearing it in Keith Moon’s voice. That doesn’t explain why I feel the desire to start that way. The answer to that is that I’m a weirdo. Sometimes things are simpler than […]

I used to write every day before eating breakfast. It’s now 8:09 PM and I’m just starting to write. I’ll eat dinner when I’m done. I’m writing while watching the Met game. They are up 9-1 so I won’t feel bad about missing some of it to cook. Yesterday I was feeling blah. I had […]

People Watching

I’m in an odd emotional space. I’ve been angry at much of what I’m hearing from people. I’m not talking about the news; I’m talking social media. It’s not all political. As I’ve said I don’t like being angry. I try to calm myself. I remind myself that it’s not my job to correct everyone […]
