just after a session, trying to figure out how the rest of the day will go. Tonight will be my last chance to see Road Show---two other options---the events by the Domino restoration (movies from HBO) or the Staten Island Yankee game. Will probably go down to city center after this session to see if tickets (cheap) are available for tonight's performance. Still, options in my head....
last night--not much to report---was not feeling good, nevertheless headed down to Standings---pizza (free on Friday) would not feel good in my stomach, which was going through some changes, so I stopped by the Greek Diner on Broadway near 8th and had a tuna sandwich with...nothing. Still cost me $10.60 before the tip. This is getting crazy---how can the elected officials not be alarmed by this? Must do something about this--anyway, hit Standings, got my beer, watched a little of the two games that interested me most---then went next door to Burp Castle---completely quiet after the screaming and yelling next door. Could almost hear the silence. Had a nice conversation with my friend Erin who is the bartender there---should visit her a little more frequently. Did not stay too long---was tired and went home.
Feeling "solid" right now---still budgeting furiously as the summer continues--looks like only one more trip (to DC in three weeks) is possible. But lots to do in the city---just found out about a Diana Sands movie that I might see next Saturday. Loved that woman as an actress---actually met her once backstage at Blues for Mr. Charlie, right after it opened---I went with my two friends from Baltimore---David and Monty. She was reserved but gracious to us. Spoke to Pat Hingle and Al Freeman Jr. also after the play. Remember it well.
The city is crawling with interesting movies in the next few days (weeks). How many i will get to see remains a mystery---but it is stimulating to think about it, will report soon.
