typical, yet not typical

         TUESDAY 5/1/18 4:50PM--went to see Dr. Borelli today...she recommends exercize...so I'm gonna try to walk around the neighborhood more...I'm gonna walk over to Pizza Hut to get my dinner...and I'm only having ONE personal pan pizza tonight, probably from now on...supposed to be learning a friend's Music, but I don't have the file yet...I need to smother my feelings for her, which are mostly, but not totally, physical...as far as *I* know she's still married...Supposed to get together with Larry next Monday; HE'S supposed to send me some songs as well...

          WEDNESDAY 12:13PM-as far as I know, I'm going to the IPO open mic tonight...I THINK the roomie is going out as well...should be thinking about Dinner...

           4:37PM--gonna go to Wendy's, but I might drive, cause that should be quicker and it's kinda hot outside...and walking the dog wore us both out a little...

     7PM- for better or for worse, Howard is hosting the open mic tonight… I’m actually starting to worry that there’s no one around this neck of the woods that I want to be in a band with...

    I’m wondering where everybody is… I guess they’re going to Agrodolce...maybe  some of those folks will be coming here later...Ethan’s here...

THURSDAY 11:41AM--after a slow start, the open mic got better...I got to play a bunch...and I talked with Donate about joining her group...in other news, almost on schedule, the Junk Movers came and got our junk...there was only one man, and it took him about twenty minutes to load up his truck...

7:30PM-hanging out at the OTWC...SLIGHTLY LATER-suddenly feeling out of the loop again...Barry IS last...it’s not really a surprise, is it?

LATER STILL-all of a sudden I’m thinking about songwriting...but I should stick to what I’m good at, harmony and guitar...mixed feelings about (possibly) playing behind Barry... for one thing I didn’t bring a guitar...

UPDATE- The guy running this thing tells me that I will be playing alongside Barry because “You know his songs  better than I do”...we’ll see,  I don’t think anybody’s going to be here to listen to the two of us...especially a certain woman singer/songwriter that I would like to (theoretically) impress... I’m thinking about a batch of songs that I wrote that I found in the basement the other day… I went to check them out today and I can’t find them...IF I do,  I might give that lyric writing thing another try...

 It was a bit like pulling teeth, but Barry apparently wants me to play with him--so I will...
