an odd day yesterday....

first of all, the weather--cold and rainy--cast a pall over everything. Then my session: two cancellations without warning---one left, but that was at 5, and I was stuck in the library at 2. If the day was nice, I could have taken a trip---maybe a walk in the nearby Bronx, or up to Inwood or Riverdale, but with the weather so brutal---had to accept some coffee and a lot of reading. Finally at 5, my student arrived and what followed was a vigorous lesson---I felt good about my commitment, but when I returned to the apartment, I was "bushed"---had very little energy--so simply went to sleep. The apartment is cold; and no heat yet, so that was also a bit of a trial. Glad to get up this morning---will have work at Friends tomorrow, and just collected $23.00 for a lotto ticket that I purchased yesterday, almost by accident.
  The situation remains the same for tonight--not sure how much energy I will have or where that will lead me. There is supposed to be a brutal wind tonight, so I would like to be out of the house for it. Baseball game of importance on at 6---several plays begin at 8--we will see. I just found out about a forum for theater leaders on Sunday--it will be moderated by a friend of mine---that talks about theater leadership that moves in a different direction from the more established theaters in New York. But is that possible, and should I attend---after all, i am just an interested participant not a "leader" Not quite sure if I want to commit to it---maybe I will meet someone in my "community" who is going, and I can ask them if my presence would be appropriate. I would really do a lot of listening, and maybe make some small contributions. Well we will see.
 Tomorrow at Friends, will probably report Saturday or soon afterwards.
