The disheartening news is that he had the J&J vaccine a month ago

DR George, oh oh.

[Jane]

DR TCB I expect you had a very enjoyable time with Shari.

[ChasSmith]

We also recently heard about someone who'd been vaccinated who tested positive for it several weeks later.

It's indeed disheartening to hear that, but I was reminded that it doesn't mean you won't get it, period. Just as with flu shots, it means you have the best chance of not getting it badly. At any rate, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. 

[singdaw]

Quite right, DR ChasSmith.

It just drastically reduces the chance that you will die from it.

[Jrand73]

Diet vibes for MR BK.

[Jrand73]

I hope DR LAURA got everything in the ground today.

[Jrand73]

Bit of rain today.....and cooler......but NOT uncomfortable.

I have yet to have to attend a HUNCHBACK rehearsal.  Perhaps next week we will be blocking I-8 which includes my participation.

[George]

That's lovely, DR ChasSmith.

And on a completely different note, or maybe not...

[George]

I just received this email:
You're receiving this email because you verified your identity on a video call with an ID.me Trusted Referee on 04/07/2021 in order to access benefits and services at New York State Department of Labor.

So glad this megillah is over!

Halle-freakin'-looya!!

I did get some bad news this morning. Sandy Winokur, who owned an olive orchard south of town and invited me out for several Easters and Thanksgivings, died a couple of weeks ago. She had had several bouts of cancer. And I wonder if the stress from the freeze and snow got to her.

I bought my olive tree from her. Yesterday I was terribly afraid it died in the polar vortex, but I actually found a few new leaves yesterday. A genuine sign of resurrection.

Oh, no!  I'm my condolences to you and to her family.

[George]

Vibes for your boss and the whole office staff, Vixmom.

~~~Ditto!!~~~

[George]

The disheartening news is that he had the J&J vaccine a month ago

That's the one I'm getting tomorrow!

DR George, oh oh.

Exactly what I was thinking.

[George]

Well, I'll certainly still get it.

Do you know which vaccination they had?  I think people have tested positive for covid with all of the vaccinations.  It was expected to happen.

Don't remember, but I think that's correct, it can happen with any of them.

Last night I tried to watch the Royal Shakespeare Company in The Winter's Tale. I couldn't stand the voice of the actress playing Hermione and, while I've liked Anthony Sher in some things and I loved his book about playing Richard III, I just wanted to scream at him CLEAR YOUR DAMNED THROAT! I may stop watching it and go back to hte BBC Shakespeare version from 1981 or so.

I would. No need to continue being irritated.

[John G.]

Finishing a 90-minute meeting and am surprised my brain hasn’t exploded. Just so many wrongs.

[elmore3003]

The cats just had their treats, I've cleaned up my dinner and theirs, and I'm closing shop for the night. See you in the morning.

And late this afternoon I had a phone call from Sean, assistant to Dr Blackburn, head of Radiology at Lenox Hill Hospital. I will see Dr Blackburn on April 27 at 1:00.

[singdaw]

I wish DRs TCB, elmore3003, and Jeanne could get in to see their doctors sooner than the system seems to move.

[Laura]

I hope DR LAURA got everything in the ground today.

The stuff got planted. I've been busy making cages to keep the rabbits out. They've eaten several new plants I've put in. I don't want to lose any more.

It got hot out, so I'll go back in an hour or so and see if I can get a few more made.

[Laura]

I mean, cages for the plants to keep the rabbits out. But I'm sure you knew that.

[John G.]

“I am his Highness’s dog at Kew;/ Pray tell me sir, whose dog are you?”

Alexander Pope's suggested inscription for a royal pet collar.

[vixmom]

John G I am sorry to hear about your loss

[vixmom]

Elmore vibes that your unemployment payment issues are soon resolved

[John G.]

It got up to 91 today. And the sun is setting in my eyes right now.

[John G.]

I have started watching Surviving Picasso, which has an incredible cast and a pretty bad script. I'm going to take a break.

[John G.]

For dinner, I had a beautiful tomato salad with basil from the garden and some pansies from the front yard. I used some balsamic vinegar from Sandy's olive orchard in her memory.

[John G.]

I got a thumb's up from Carol, but no further message. She's got to be tired.

[John G.]
