Don't Miss Tomorrow's Dramatic Wine of the Year Announcement! Assuming, my fingers don't hurt too much to type. I used to be a far active blogger until I developed rheumatism around my thumb joints. It is now acutely painful to type. I've tried seven different ergonomic keyboards and none of them help. The only reason I can write this blog is that my new doctor just put me on tramadol hydrochloride acetaminophen, which does much to alleviate my pain. The problem, is that the drug makes me dizzy and tired. Yesterday, for instance, I ran over a pedestrian on the corner of 5th Street and The Bowery while riding by bicycle home under the influence. I was looking up at one of the new towers being built on The Bowery, which Mayor Bloomberg is renaming to Dubai on the Bowery and didn't notice an older woman coming right at me. Luckily, she was only slightly bruised and was able to get up and continue on her way to her Mitchell-Lama apartment on 4th Street and the Bowery which is scheduled for demolition next spring to make way for another luxury hotel. |
