Bridges, Boroughs, and Gardens

Sitting here in the public atrium near 6th Avenue and 54th Street, thinking about urban planning and Understanding Power (a book by Noam Chomsky). Also, I am thinking about Skywalks, thermodynamics and music.

Alvin Ostroff, Anna Sokolow, Norm Goodman

Another beautiful Saturday. Alvin Ostroff met me for breakfast and told me his stories the 20th Century then we walked to ASL and I talked with Jayson about Anna Sokolow and Theater for the New City.

WSTM (Women's Shelter: The Musical)

The past year has been unusually strange. have been staying with friends and in DHS shelters. Trying to salvage my possessions and live without an apartment or paycheck.I have met so many people. I have a hard time remembering people's names. Everyone looks like someone I have met or seen in film or on television. The gym has become my home. I spend a lot more time on trains and out of doors, in coffee shops, parks and movie theaters. Recently, I started volunteering at Theater for the New City People at All Souls and Coalition for the Homeless and the YMCA have been very helpful. The shelter I am staying at now is much better than the previous shelter, which was much better than the one before that. I am now able to sleep at night and not worried about people stealing my things or assulting me. It is much safer, cleaner, and calmer. Now I hope continue putting my life in order.
