I was wrong to talk last night.  The news kept Keith awake, darn.  I should have realized as it also kept me awake.

Jane, i try to turn my computer off by 10 pm, because it's just too stimulating. Blue light, news, or just interesting conversations can all activate my brain cells and make it difficult to sleep. Reading, however, lets me let go of the day and get ready to sleep.

DR Jeanne, you might find this article on Kimberly Guilfoyle entertaining and informative:

thank you for thinking of me. It was interesting, but maybe just a bit more than I needed to know about her. Some people are just plain creepy.

But I also have to say that I hope this is no campaign ploy to say that the virus is nothing to worry about.

Exactly!

I agree, but I don't thnk it's that. I also think it's taken many people by surprise. Enough to modify their behavior.

The bag is ready for delivery at the Drive By Baby Shower Tomorrow.

Only one sister is going with me.

I put the receipt in a sealed envelope and wrote on the outside of it "Receipt if you want to return/exchange anything."  I put it in the bottom of the bag.  I went back into the kitchen and THAT envelope was still on the table.

I had put my cable bill in the gift bag......I thought for a moment about leaving it there.....but a saner head prevailed and I switched them out.

In the article that said he was going to Walter Reade, precautionary visit, it also said he'd been injected with some unapproved anti-body thing. 

It is the drug that I currently would want if I got sick.  I have to hope it works, sigh.

I read that it's quite expensive and there's a very limited amount. Not many people hace access to it.

Gearing up to move when my lease is up.  A few miles away from where I am now.  The rent is cheaper, the area is nicer, and I think I need a change of scene.

Sounds like a good plan. I hope it works out well for you.

We had an audience of about 100 and they seemed to enjoy it. Nobody left early. Nobody really seemed to leave for the restroom either.

It must have been a fairly young crowd then.

How naive can people be? What made them think they wouldn't catch it? Surely no one could still think it's a hoax.

I just received an email from Quest Diagnostics that I can get a home COVID test, which is, I guess, like the one that Matthew had.

Unless I go to Gelson's and get something I need for tomorrow's food.  Then I could cool it down at least a little.

Back from Gelson's and got the house cooled down a little bit.  I'm praying it's not too late, sick-wise - maybe some vibes would be good.

Nicer area and less expensive.  If Craig could find soliomething like ke that he would move.  When is your lease up?

I had to take tickets (actually scan them). I had my mask on securely and my gloves on. We had someone taking temperatures at the door.

Stay well vibes to you and all of us.

I've been watching MY OCTOPUS TEACHER, a documentary on Netflix streaming. I find it quit interesting. I needed something gentle--no murders or scandal or outrageous behavior.

I first read that as October and then had to double check it really was octopus ;D

So true.  Usually I unwind before reading. I shouldn't chat here.  Tonight I am trying to stay awake until I know Keith's cousin's son is out of surgery.

I have been receiving updates.  The last update said it should e over at 11:00.  A nurse took Keith's cousin a sandwich and drink while he waits.

I doubt she thought it was a hoax, just followed his example that masks weren't needed. Sigh. 

I do hope her family is ok and wonder how George Conway felt about her attending the event.

We watched the new iteration of The Boys in the Band tonight on Netflix. I've always found the play kind of a bitter pill. But it was very well done.


I saw the original off-Broadway production in 1969.  I hated every minute of it, although it was nice to see some of the original cast.
