I lived in New York for about 9 years and 11 months…. Then there was this weird pandemic thing.

But anyway.

I love New York (as the saying goes). I went to Texas circa Covid, because my mother was unwell, and there was a sense that normal life was effectively over (which may be true and maybe always was). Anyway, my mother was treated effectively, but I experienced a stroke, and my fiancée left.

And so like that sucked. But I still love (and miss) NY. Lately I have felt drawn to it, as if by a force.

Obviously, I don’t like having impaired speech and sight, but I’m glad I am alive and have the opportunity to realize how much NYC means to me. I need to figure out how to go there. It occurs to me I can’t just hop on a train now that I have a (fantastic) dog.

Back before I went through hospitalization and what-not, I was primarily concerned with “small ball”—trying to keep my now-ex-fiancée happy and that sort of thing. Stuff they talk about in pop songs. Nowadays, I’m much more interested in things that interested me when I first visited the elementary school library. Here’s an example: What are…
