On the Edge of Completion of Many Things

Posted on June 6, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

I was tempted to start this off by talking about current events.  Then, I remembered all of the arguments I’ve gotten into this week.  You see, I think about the psychological impact of an action and play devil’s advocate too … Continue reading →

Goal Post: Guess I Was Due for a Rough Week

Posted on May 16, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

This week didn’t go smoothly.  The schoolwork was fairly intense because a lot of new skills and actions were introduced.  First, analyzing a Longfellow poem with a kid who is literal to the bone is an act of patience.  “Dust … Continue reading →

Goal Post: I’m Just Going to Remove Anything Before ‘Day’ on the Calendar

Posted on May 2, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

I’m going to start with heavy event number one.  I can’t talk about details because that would be crossing a line.  All I will say is that I got to experience my first Zoom funeral this week.  Found it awkward … Continue reading →

Another week of schoolwork and housework.  Look, I’ve got very little else going on here since New York is such a mess.  Things were a little easier since our spring break was supposed to start on Thursday and we have … Continue reading →

Kind of a Room Tour (Revival of the Florida and College Decor!)

Posted on March 29, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

I don’t do many pictures of my room because it’s fairly dull.  Large rack of DVDs, TV on a dresser, nightstand, bed, large bookcase that was never given a coat of finish, hat rack, exercise bike, smaller bookcase, and desk.  … Continue reading →

I Can’t Even Think of a Title Here

Posted on March 14, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

I’m just stunned and confused now.  Leave out the stuff with taxes and the ex-wife as well as the application to graduate school.  All of those have been kind of dwarfed by the big thing going on.  Been trying to … Continue reading →

I Swear Things Happened this Week . . . Damned If I Remember What Though

Posted on March 7, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

(Loved the fight scene when this song showed up.  Annoyed that they only have it in two parts instead of one full video.  I was tempted to post them, but people don’t seem to bother with videos.) I’ve been out … Continue reading →
