I Don't Want to Be Normal. I Want to Be Healthy 01/18/14 Dan Goodman,

Wednesday January 15, 2014 Muddsuckers, my neighborhood coffeehouse, is
closed for renovation. It's supposed to reopen as Como Grind on Friday
(postponed from Monday the 13th.)

Today, the renovation didn't look only two days away from completion.
And the sign on the main door said "We keep coming up with great ideas,"
which sounds ominous to me. [And indeed, target date changed to the
20th.]

The side door still had a sign saying reopening would be on the 13th. I
called them about it.

***Watched television for the first time in at least a week. I use the
coin laundry attached to Joe's Market; and Joe's has a widescreen TV. It
was tuned to CNN.

The closed captioning seemed to be a bit off. For example, I'm fairly
sure "oak pulsion" should have been "expulsion."

Some time in the future, I might have home TV again. But I won't likely
use it to learn the news.

***The Minnesota Orchestra lockout was settled yesterday. Today, I asked
someone to pass on a message to one of the musicians. "Give __ my
condolences on having to go back to work."

There have only been about 20 coffeehouses at the spot on Como & 15th that have closed in the past 20 years. Muddsuckers will be no exception.
