Waterbound and I can't get home
Mar. 3rd, 2021 09:32 amRough day yesterday. A big departure from the firm, I think. Also, it's too crowded in here.
I remembered to bring my earbuds this morning on my walk, so I was able to dwell in the Toni Morrison story Recitatif and not think about where I am so much.
I attended a webinar about a new ART musical. the Circle of Becoming, with Diane Paulus, V, Idina Menzel and Justin Tranter. Interesting concept, an environment-focused show. Climate catastrophe. V is a hoot. Idina is very focused. The music guy? I'm not so sure. Using folk music for this seems like tripling down on its whiteness. We shall see. I signed up for it as something to look forward to but I couldn't access the expected delight.
I'm going to cut down on the social again. I can't handle the load of negativity right now. Fragile. Can I go down to twitter twice a day? It's hard here because I have to sit in my corner and be quiet. I should remember my former practice of grabbing a book rather than the phone.
I went to bed early. No TV. Read half of Remote Control by Nnedi Okeafor and started The Awakening by Kate Chopin. The latter reading inspired by Treme.
And so it goes.
