only two weeks...

until the "end of summer". Then what? At night, cityboy goes over his "income plan" sometimes obsessively, during periods of unrest. And there is the "rub". In those night hours, mostly between 12 and 5, cityboy is "trapped" in his apartment---alone with his thoughts. If nothing really exciting has happened the night before, sometimes those thoughts get pretty intense. Do they go away in the morning? Well mostly. Again, a lot depends on the structure of the day ahead. But in two weeks,  most of this will change. Friends will be back in session, my students will be mostly back, and there will be some money coming in. Until then? Austerity budget in place---but cityboy accepts the challenge in that. And life goes on.
Yesterday, awoke from an afternoon nap feeling a little weak, But things got better, and cityboy made the decision to spend the evening at La Flaca watching baseball. A good decision---bartender Sam (Samantha) was on, and she and I spent a pleasant few hours of interacting, while I watched the two baseball games on the TV (Yankees-Marlins, Mets-Giants) and had a nice large BLT and salad, Not the most exciting evening, but economical, and pleasing. With south fourth gone, La Flaca may play a larger role in my life. Remember, Bobby, the owner, has been my good friend for eighteen years.
  Evenings for the rest of the week through Saturday seem pretty well set. Tonight, if physically up to it, will go to Sweet Jane's the bar in Ridgewood and play trivia, hopefully with Lindsay, the woman from Bushwick who has twice been my partner. Thursday will go to the Crown Heights Tenants Union monthly meeting and ask them to endorse the march against gentrification that BAN is having on the 15th. Friday the play at Ohio Space with my friend Zach, and Saturday I will finally get my chance at watching a minor league baseball game, as my friend John and I go to a Cyclones game. Looking forward to that.
  No movies in that plan, though possibly one or two might sneak in. Also, try at some point to get to the Museum of the City of NY and look at the Kubrick exhibit (photos) that is ending soon. Will report tomorrow.
