an energy surge last night, after new appointment with the Swifts. Feeling strong in the tutoring department.
Saturday: as I stated, did not try for a movie, instead went to Cobra---found Susan, one of my favorite bartenders there, hung out for about 4 hours, most of it not watching the playoffs but in conversation with law student Alex, discussing the many aspects (good and mostly bad, for him) of living in NYC. A stimulating conversation, he also wants to get involved with Mayday, hope I can hook him up with Lucas.
Got an e-mail today about needing help at Wycoff gardens, this is a project in Brooklyn that is today without water. If situation still persists, maybe I can go there tomorrow and help out or contribute.Always find it fascinating to visit the projects in Brooklyn (fascinating---a strange word in this context) For one thing terribly aware that any project around Cobble Hill or Boerum Hill is right next to a very wealthy neighborhood. Am I going there to help out, or am I going there because really I want to sip coffee at
a nearbye upscale coffee place? Always see things in a split setting.
Rest of Saturday evening consisted of stopping off at Two Boots on Driggs, and having a beer at Emerald Inn, Baltimore native Gary watching fervently his Ravens defeat the Steelers. Poor Gary, does not seem to have much to root for except the Baltimore sports team, he is from Park Heights, the Jewish area in Baltimore that, like the Bronx and parts of Brooklyn, changed radically during the late sixties.
Yes, he probably knew girls that I dated. He got a little carried away during the game, which the Ravens actually had in the bag for most of the time we were watching.
Yesterday, after great chemistry with Elias, decided to go to La Flaca, thought that the party was yesterday, instead it is today. Will go later, hopefully some interesting events will evolve.
