My brain just glitched
Him: Hey! Any chance we could meet up a little earlier tomorrow? Say 10 vs 11?
Me: Sure!
Him: Perfect, see you then! I’ll be the gray-haired guy with the 6’ tall sixteen-year-old.
My buddy Danny came by with his kid the other day. He moved to Texas ages ago.
Don’t think I’ve seen him since this entry waaaay back in 2007, far before his daughter was born and before he had grey hair.
I gave them a quick tour of the Upper West Side before I had to run back for some zoom meetings.
Gotta say, I think about stopping this blog alla time but then I’m reminded how nice it is to have a place I can just remember things.
Me: His daughter really was six-foot tall.
Her: You know, one of these days, the kid and all his friends are gonna be taller than you.
Me: (…)
Her: (laughing) You ok?
Me: My brain just glitched.
Him: I’m glad we could meet up! And you’re right by my sister.
Me: It is the upper BEST side, after all. (stopping in the middle of the street) Hold on…
Him: Everything ok?
Me: Yeah. (pointing down) That’s a baseball imbedded into the street and thought it was interesting enough to take a pic of. (shrugging) It’s kinda what I do.
I’ve also been having some zoom classes for a physcian that lives in Pittsburg. He’s also a former boxer that’s gotten really into kali and reached out to me to see if we could do private zoom classes.
So, for the past few months, I’ve been teaching him here and there.
He randomly ended up like two blocks from my home the other day so we met up for a cuppa joe.
Whenever possible, I always try to make time for people if they’re willing to head up to where I am.
After all, I never know when – or even if – I’ll ever see them again.
Location: watching Rob and Andy sing in Newark
Mood: entertained
Music: If you would leave it’d be a crying shame (Spotify)
