Today's the day....

and in a few hours I will meet with the doctor (I think it is an internist) and discuss the possibility and possible date for the colonoscopy. Do I want it? Things have improved since yesterday; in my head I feel I am home free. I feel really good in all other areas. Is it necessary?  Hopefully the doctor will allow some dialogue...
Well, let's face it.....
Last night, a really good night. Decided to  go to Sweet Jane's in Ridgewood, and am glad that I did. Bartender and friend Olivia was really happy to see me, and then continued to participate in Trivia game with my friend-partner Lindsay. The whole evening was like a breath of fresh air. Much better idea then going to a movie by myself. Now I know there is a place where I can go on Wednesday nights and have some contact. And the long trip back (it is long) does not really bother me.
The novel I am reading is The Mars Room by Rachel Kushner. Very intense about a white woman in her late twenties, living in prison for what may be the rest of her life. What happened? After about 40 pages, not quite clear. The author gets the brutally closed atmosphere of the prison and prison life very well. Looking forward to continuing it.
 Have just read that Baltimore's Center Stage has just selected its new artistic director. She comes from the Public. It will be interesting to see what she brings to the theater. I think there is a lot of room for change there---more than in the New York not for profit theater. Let's see what happens. 
  So, we move closer to the moment. No plans for tonight, have to see how I feel first after my visit to the doctor's office. Will report tomorrow.
