Up at 7. Weight 213.7 Went to a church sale on the UES w/ Bree at 9: 2 pr pants, 1 sweater, CD of Ella & Louis singing Gershwin, Copy of v. 1 of the standard edition of Rememberance of Things Past to replace a beat-up one, 1976 pb ed. of Walter Tevis, The Man Who Fell To Earth, with Bowie on the cover. Bree bought a shirt and a nice old lamp w/ a relief pattern of crickets on it. We spent $11 in all. She went hope, I stayed in the neighborhood w/ the intent of walking to the Met. But I ended up finding some coffee and then sitting in Shakespeare & Co. Caught up in daybook, w/ the help of a volume on Naval Phraseology for a found poem. Read a chunk of GG, and the remainder of Brett Milano's Scott Miller book (started yesterday, efficient rock-bio read). Listened, in fact, to 2 Steps from the Middle Ages on the way home - it had been a while - and much of Real Nighttime, which I had heard more recently; since Scott's death. I went to E77 for a while later and heard a singer-songwriter, going by "Violet" who had not an ounce of originality but a good 2nd guitarist. Fooled around with some more political writing, couldn't make myself clear email, lights out about midnight.
