New Month

Tomorrow is December and there is plenty to be done. All kinds of works and all kinds of things. That's what needs to be done.

The Sun is out after a couple of days of clouds. Thanksgiving was great yesterday. Today Grace & I go food shopping at a Korean supermarket called Hmart. I really liked it. Dumplings for dinner.

Thanksgiving 2014

Today I don't work but it feels so busy for me. There are the family things to do and 6 inches of snow is on the ground which means I'll be cleaning that up. Crazy stuffing for me in my head.

Monday Night Sonnet

Last night I was at McGeary's in Albany where I read a sonnet I wrote back in 2004. It went over really well. The poetry reading was
in the back room of the bar where it always is. The other part of the bar had Buffalo Bills fans who were watching the football game on TV. There was plenty of activity to go around.

Maandag Arbeit

Ik heeft werk  op Maandag. 
Ik heeft voetbal op de TV nu.

Run Sunday

I want to go out this morning and get a run in. I need to exercise.  

Again

I find myself here again
It's where you'll find me
See it here my friend
Right until the end

Friday New York

I live in New York State and 200 miles west of me, the other side of the Empire State is has been getting hit with so much snow.

Some Songs

Geo, Nick & I jammed on a bunch of songs tonight. Lots of fun!

So many things to do.

How Is That

I'm not sure really.

With Grace

I'm with Grace this morning and she made me a great breakfast!

Sunday Clouds

I'm in West New York and it's cold & cloudy outside. Saw one of the big cruise ships leaving Manhattan and heading out into the Atlantic Ocean. Just like a floating hotel. 

Saturday Here

I'm in Albany today and I'll be in West New York tomorrow. On the road for Sunday. 

Bad Business

I'm one lousy businessman.

It's A Business

How's the work?
How's the job?
Get paid.
Ask for a raise. 

Oh Boy

I've just turned off of Easy Street and onto some rough roads. 

Did It Again

Ran through my rock opera THE FRONT DESK this morning. So much for putting that piece of music away.

There are things I have to do
In order to survive

Play it real close
So far away
At least it's the most
On a Fall Sunday

Saturday Clouds

Just woke up a little while ago and it is cloudy & cold out there. Winter is right around the corner. 

Midnight Plus

Just came home after seeing The Last Conspirators. Now I'm in bed. Goodnight.

Nothing Special

I have no room to talk about anyone else in a negative way. I have plenty of my own failures. 

New Musical Change

It seems the days of me just running though my rock opera THE FRONT DESK are over. Now I can take individual songs from that piece and fit them into a set with my other compositions. Watch, now I'll play the whole damn thing again. 

Night Life

Time for me to hit it. Goodnight.

Slow Bones

Ran 8 miles this morning. It was slow going.

To Be Loved

I'm so fortunate to have family & friends who show me such great love. 

Another Nice Day

Nice weather today. I'll be driving this morning, so that makes things good. I'm on my way. 

14 Miles

I've run 14 miles in the last 2 days. Feel like I'm back on track again. 

November 2014

My first post on this blog for the month of November. Busy and not busy. How does that happen? It's something I can do.
