My work week has finally come to an end. Thank goodness. It was as if someone stepped on the accelerator today.

Commentary is finished, but will require some hefty revising - but it's all down at least.

I will have to get back on Facebook for the first time in about 18 months for this.

Love Never Dies, the Phantom sequel, is the free ALW show this weekend. If you want to see it, try before 2 p.m. CT Sunday. Apparently the weekend is set by British time.

I'm listening to Hey, Mister! Thinking Tractor?

Ford Tractor Musicals. They're not too far from the Soviet tractor musicals I remember, like Volga, Volga. All the world's a tractor musical. Or something like that.

Well, isn't this special...Virologist: Olympia protest could lead to spike in WA coronavirus cases. :P

It seems logical to me.  It seems they could have at least prevented spreading the virus while they protested.  Really, hair salons?  Think about the hair stylist breathing on your face while doing your hair.  Thank you, I will wait longer to get mine done unless major precautions are taken.

I have yet to see or hear or read one word or note of that. I've never even been able to imagine such a sequel.

That having been said, who the hell knows what I'll be tempted to do by Sunday morning. Right?

This damned virus is getting too close for comfort.  My friends Danny Burstein and his wife Rebecca have come through it, and this morning at 4:45 it murdered my friend Richard Galgano, who had been homebound and in frail health for some time.  Richard was one of the administrators of the Facebook page "Vintage New York Stage."

I am so very sorry Elmore

Today at Ye Olde YoueTubee - the National The-yater is streaming its production of FRANKENSTEIN beginning NEXT Thursday.

It stars Benwa Cucumber and should be quite popular with the populace. He plays the Creature for a week or so, and then he switches parts with Jonny Lee Miller who plays Victor F. the next week.....   8)

I saw this in the movies last year it was a Fathom event.  I saw th version where Cumberbatch was the doctor

Yesterday I had a long talk with my PCP's office manager. I told her of my frustrations with a staff who know nothing or know very little, and even then it's contradictory. One of the nurses called me a few weeks ago and said my long-overdue appointment had been cancelled. No reason given and no matter what I asked she replied, "I don't know." Many of us have longstanding health issues and need treatment. I feel they need to give us some options. A telephone visit? A date when we might reschedule? But something. The manager said they are available to us, but they're not! I don't know how persuasive I was, but it was really bugging me and maybe she was able to see things from a patient's point of view.

Danny Burstein's writing of his experience is amazing and sobering.

Agreed.

Then, today, I saw a new chiropractor. I heard last week that there was someone who had not closed his office, who was still seeing patients. I'm not allowed to see my osteopath due to social distancing--but he does see suspected Covid patients in person--and my condition has gotten quite a bit worse over the last few weeks. I can only do so much on my own. I had to balance the risk of possible Covid exposure against the clear reality of degradation of an existing condition. He's quite willing to see patients and the building is kept very clean. He's highly trained and understood my situation completely. He's expensive, though, and I have to pay for treatment that is covered under my insurance, but only if I receive it from the osteopath who I am not permitted to see. Annoying, to be sure, but I think he'll be able to help me.

Thanks, Jane. I do understand that Covid is extremely challenging, but I also feel that non-Covid patients have been shunted aside. Even if they can't make room for us they need to at least be honest and tell us what the situation is. I know what's happening in NY; I don't know what's happening here.

Indiana totals.

13,680 cases - 741 deaths - 128 cases in my county.

We have now surpassed your county in one day we had 129 new cases in one day we are up to 287.  With the county across the river we are at 582.  Rising faster and faster.  It's the meat processing plants, but they won't close them because it would mess up the food chain, so...

The IRS website says that my check will be mailed today....so I guess I am scheduled to be stimulated by the mailman.

More power to you, they still say they haven't decided when I will get mine

The manager did tell me that part of the problem is insufficient PPE. That does not bode well for my upcoming surgery.

The treatment left me kind of knocked out and I can't keep my eyes open.

Stay safe, everyone.

I got 8 hours of sleep last night and am feeling better. My allergies were bothering me so I turned on the AC and was able to breathe a lot better.
