Up 8. SNL clips (some last night).
Got a FedEx package from Mike Scharf - some of his Mother’s sheet music, Johnny Mathis and Chubby Checker 7”s, and a booklet from the Adlai Stevenson campaign.
Had a hard time getting much going. Finished Revise.
Went to LES early, read 60 p. Guthrie bio on train. Picked up salami and olives at Essex Market (left bag at counter, had to go back after getting cash), worked for an hr. and change in a nearby Starbucks. (What’s the good of New York if non-corporate coffee places aren’t open after 6 on a Sunday?) Listened to first few songs on Nicholas Krgvich’s album of song by Veda Hill walking to Jean and David’s. Played a Harry Potter-themed version of Clue w/ their son Leonard. (I won.) Ate Indian takeout and played Scrabble — terribly. Listened to Judith Berkson, P.P. Arnold, Furniture 3. Left about 10:30. Didn’t have energy to read more on the way home.
Glanced at first poem in Heather Ramsdell, Lost Wax, lights out midnight.
(I have played the piano a little, yesterday and today.)
