lacking passion, I guess---today the first of 4 free days---just what I wanted, but look, here I am on Friday around 7, all played out. Had planned to go to the Bushwcik Starr for a one man shw--but it looks like I am too tired. So try tomorrow--in spite of the fact that snow or rain is scheduled---feel it is important for me to show support for that theater. They are also scheduled to have a fair of material pertaining to the black community--some books and zines etc. Might be good to get there early---see if I can have a dialogue with one or two of the people there. Can't imagine myself on the L train, coming back to Manhattan while the rain is pouring down---but---well we shall see.
Spent the morning at the Brooklyn Heights library, returning two books, including Invisible, the novel by Paul Auster that fascinates me. Third time I had read it---each time I seem more absorbed by it. I marvel at Auster;s ability to create---the depth of his imagination--can't possibly conceive of myself doing anything like that. The "absence" of self--the creation of life--how is it done? Interesting non fiction book by him at the library but could not take it out---need to dull my concentration a bit.
Will probably stay in tonight---cold out there and feeling a little tired. I have to remember that at this point, a morning trip to Brooklyn Heights and about an hour of browsing in the library may take up all my energy for the day. So, far tomorrow---take it easy before the trip out to Bushwick---laundry and maybe a trip to Lincoln Center and the two libraries that are contained there. That should be all. Some other interesting choices for tomorrow as well--- but ofcourse, they were conceived with the idea that I would go t Bushwick today, Did not happen---stay tuned.
