rough night...

those bed bugs just keep coming, in spite of many things I did during the evening to prevent that.
As a result, did not get much sleep, however while I was awake many things on my mind. Thought about Assembly's project at Ohio Space: two aspects of it not mentioned in Steve's program notes: the inability of the parents in the play to be nurturers and that three of the main five characters are alcoholics. Will bring this up with them, but probably later, rather than sooner, prefer to discuss plays with participants after the play has closed---let them concentrate on doing their run. Still, fascinating aspect also Home-Sick was about young people without parents (so to speak) everything was focused on acting at the moment---its almost as if the Assembly now wants to explore feelings about parents.
So thought a lot about this as I was fighting the bugs. but what to do now?
   Should really focus today on buying a new matress and?or complete bed. But somehow feel very stymied about doing this---thought the best thing to do would be to wait for intense cleaning next Saturday (at this time as we speak) but really should get rid of the bed as soon as possible, at some point will have to get a good night;s sleep. Mattress place on corner of 145th street and Broadway, also an "upscale" ( or so it seems) futon store a just two blocks away from me. Have a long break between sessions today, should get something done.
 Last night, tired after the sessions, went home and was able to sleep (without bugs) for about an hour, then decided just to have a "soft" meal, went to diner on Broadway between 94th street and 95th--had usual BLT (the waiter there knows me now, he sees me  enter the restaurant and just checks the order with me, then puts it in-- I give him a little extra tip for that) After that thought about joining the free "Broadway Karaoke" at the Symphony Space (lots of people there early, must be popular); toyed with the idea, but finally simply decided to return home. What followed I described above.
Tonight, not sure, there is an opening at Bronx Documentary Center, that I might attend, but all depends how I feel after second lesson, and what I have accomplished at that point re the bed. Might be too tired to do much, but then again....
