as the inauguration approaches---nothing to do but sit back and wait. Not clear about rest of the weekend plans, except Sunday, when I will probably watch one of both playoff games. Not very "protesty" of me, I admit, but not sure what I can do so soon after the new President takes office.
Still lots of concerns about the situation in this city, which seems to have been pushed under the rug by all the inauguration activity.
Did not work again today---not sure how I will spend the rest of the day---choices to make--apartment being cleaned in a little while, so have to be out of the apartment.
Last night, would have liked to go to concert at Friends, but last session ended too late, and the subway was slow---so I decided to go to Lansdowne Road to say hello to my friend Mel. She was there, greeted me warmly and we had a nice conversation about what was happening. Good time at the bar-restaurant, except that, like all of them, if you want food it is becoming so expensive. Took the hit on my pocket book in order to "hang" with Mel, but wonder how long I can continue to do this. Lots of ebbs and flows in my pocket book. At any rate, somewhat tired, that factor will probably determine the choice that I make for the evening.
Tomorrow, will see the play that my friend Emily is in---at a theater about a block from my house (always weird finding myself in my apartment twenty minutes before the play) but should be good to see her. Not sure about the shape of the rest of tomorrow.
While I was resting last night, had some visions of Baltimore, from my time there, remembered driving around the Park Heights area when it was all Jewish--that changed around the late sixties, a few years after I was gone.
Does not seem that there is much more to report, but will come back with news tomorrow.
