My Endorsement is Warrented.

Last night I went to the big Elizabeth Warren rally at Washington Square Park. It ostensibly started at 7 but they announced that doors were at 4. Doors at Washington Square Park? Apparently the closed off the park as they set up. You had to register or check in to go. I registered as soon […]

The Dead Sea and Death Valley

This is going to be fun. I plan on writing about two things, my mental health issues and common cognitive errors. First I’ll tell you that I’m screwed up and then I’m going to give you advice on how to think. At least I’m not clueless. I see how it looks. Lack of theory of […]

Go Hudson West Young Man and Young Woman

Last night I went to the third annual Hudson West Folk Festival. That’s my excuse for not writing yesterday, I’m the head of the merch volunteers, well duh, so I wanted to get there early. Turns out I couldn’t do much merch stuff for the first two hours but helped with set up or perhaps […]

Great Day for a Concert; Let’s Hear Two!

Last night I had a musical doubleheader. Months ago Emily Mure announced the date for her EP release, September 12. Then Joe Iadanza told me the date for his album release, September 12. I thought I had something for that date but wasn’t sure what. Then I saw it was Emily’s EP release and was […]

Yesterday was the second Tuesday of the month and it’s not August. Raise your hand if you know what that means I did last night? I always see the same hands. If you were there you aren’t allowed to answer. You there in the back, what did I do? “You went to John Platt’s On […]

What’s Important?

Last night I went to the Met game. I finally go to see the team’s best pitcher and player, Jacob deGrom. The Mets don’t score much for deGrom, which is just luck, he’s a good hitter so you’d expect them to score more. That held up yesterday, the Metropolitans scored but three runs, good thing […]

Gathering of the Clans

I’m in the midst of a socializing frenzy. After going weeks without seeing another soul I’m now seeing friends almost every day. Yesterday’s event was Joe’s 70th birthday party. For the fourth time in two weeks I found myself heading out to Allison and Joe’s house on the wrong side of the Hudson, aka New […]

No Sim City

I didn’t do much yesterday so I’m tempted to skip writing. What I did do was go to therapy so I will work on not giving into temptation. That isn’t what we discussed in therapy. It was a rough session; I’m having some problems that I don’t want to discuss here. That makes writing tougher. […]

Moor or Less

I’m getting better at getting out and doing things that aren’t music, my safe space. Last night Katherine and I went to see Othello in Bryant Park. I love their picnic event series. There are chairs on the lawn to the sides of the stage but they provide blankets for those that want to sit […]

El Awrence

Yesterday I did something I have not done in countless years; I went to the movies with Carey. This is noteworthy as it is something that we use to do just about every week. My cataracts were a big part of this, I couldn’t enjoy movies when I couldn’t see. There was more though, just […]
