I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And I didn't see Javier Munoz as Hamilton; it was the guy who will be leading the Chicago cast. He was wonderful.

It seems unlikely that they would put a no talent chump in the show. It has to be on the top of the list of the best of the best.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So glad for you, Dana.

Also YUM Canters! I haven't been there in years, but good memories

Canter's is the center-point of my annual Tom Waits tour. Always fun to pit stop there.

I took a four hour nap, woke up with my tummy still unhappy, but finally managed to drag myself to dancing, since hey, I shouldn't need too much sleep tonight right? (Somehow I don't believe that)

Ugh. Dancing was a mistake--I thought I felt ok (my stomach had quit hurting) but I just felt horribly off, and all my dances, even with the good dancers, felt terrible. Wtf self? Tomorrow better be better!

ETA: oh, partial mystery solved perhaps--note to self, you would feel at least a little better if you remembered to take your medication in the morning!!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I tell you what, combining Pokémon Go with an activity tracker is exceptionally satisfying. I rambled around campus during the day and my neighborhood in the evening hitting up Pokestops and catching Pokémon. Before I got home my tracker said I'd made my daily goal. And I leveled up. If the interest continues I might actually get into shape. Or get heat stroke. Possibly both.

Go team Valor!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Ugh. I am an idiot. I was supposed to teach ESOL at Refugee Resettlement today, but I accidentally set my alarm for 8 PM rather than 8 AM. That's the sort of excuse where I'd roll my eyes if one of my college students tried to use it.

Coding and Sleeping

but I accidentally set my alarm for 8 PM rather than 8 AM.

I've been there.

In college I was once an hour late for a final because I was so tired I slept through my alarm clock buzzing for an hour. Fortunately, we had three hours to take the final and two hours was still plenty of time.
