Yesterday was the second Tuesday of the month and that means I went to John Platt’s On Your Radar. This month’s guests were Damn Tall Buildings, South for Winter, and Jared Feinman. In the morning I had an appointment with my gastroenterologist who is my de facto primary care physician. I last saw her in […]

Dateline Upper Darby: Last you heard I was on a bus to Philadelphia. I made it alive! I know that sounds like an epic achievement but please hold your applause until the end of the entry. LORi picked me at by 30th Street Station, we did a few shopping stops and headed back to her […]
Dateline BoltBus to Philadelphia. The Bolt Bus free Wi-Fi is officially useless. I’m hoping to get enough out of it to be able to post this. As for everything else online I’ll use my phone. Yesterday’s adventure was seeing Darlingside at the Irvington Town Hall Theater as part of the Common Ground Coffeehouse series curated […]
In some ways yesterday was a rerun of the Friday before, geographically it was identical; I went from home to therapy then back home and then to the Jenkins House Concerts on the Upper West Side. That’s a very convenient schedule for me. What happened in therapy and at the concert were of course quite […]

On a Late Winter’s Night
Sorry I didn’t write yesterday; I had a mild Crohn’s attack. I need to discuss the language with my doctor. I didn’t have a flareup, food just got stuck in the scarring in my small intestine from previous flareups. I had to go out yesterday as I had a 1 PM appointment to reapply for […]

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. […]
I knew exactly what I was going to write about today. Now I don’t remember. Something with the election? I think it was something about a common cognitive error people make while discussing the elections. The technical name for my cognitive error is being an idiot. I can write about something idiotic I did that […]

Let’s Go to the COVIDEO
I surprised my therapist by asking how the hospital is preparing for COVID-19? She said I was the last patient she’d think was worried about that. I’m not germophobic and medical issues are the one thing I have less anxiety about than most people. I’m not afraid of getting COVID-19 and picturing me or my […]
Yesterday started with very little sleep. I got home late on Friday and then had an 8 AM appointment for my infusion. I am supposed to get them every 8 weeks and missed a few. This was due to and reinforced a vicious anxiety cycle. The longer I waited the more anxiety I had about […]
Since I wrote yesterday I’ve had therapy, made poutine, see The Bee Eaters with Sean Watson, and gotten an infusion. I could say that I’m tired just thinking about it but that’s a lie. I’m tired because I got home after 1 AM and my infusion was at 8 AM and I didn’t sleep well. […]
