so the day....

ended with a brief trip to Mayday (thought there was a party, turns out just an open house tour) but got a chance to say hi to Lucas. He invited me to participate in art work for climate march this weekend, but don't think that I will do that---too impersonal or something. After that stopped off at Cobra, glad that I did, friends were there, good conversation, saw Whitey and Emily soon after---had interesting and telling talk with Emily, she is a social worker, travels all over the city into neighborhoods that even in the day, I would feel nervous about going into, yet she does it---good for her! Yet she was not aware of the Teachout triumph, had to educate her about that and the climate march, amazing how many bushwick denizens don't know about Mayday, urged Wallace and Chelsea, two good friends to take a tour of the place, very important.Stayed for a little bit of comedy, kind of boring, then left, felt to my surprise hungry, so I stopped into the Two Boots on Driggs for a slice, and had a good conversation with Michael re movies. Feeling more comfortable there---thought I might head over to south fourth for a final "hang" but instead got tired quickly, and returned home.
What about today. No tutoring - so totally free.
In the late afternoon will attend reception for photography at the former old people's home on the Concourse in the Bronx. Should be interesting, always see that is a "return" to the world that I once knew. Will probably be out by 7:30, what then....? Will play it by ear. Before that, maybe go to south fourth, fun if Merlin is there, or to library to pick up on Tanner book, still refuse to take it out---need to find something more riveting to read....
