Made it to Minneapolis. Hi, Singdaw.

[John G.]

Yesterday’s TOD:

Actors Theatre of Louisville did a production of Morning’s at Seven that brought about renewed interest in the play. The set was wonderful. Real grass and flower boxes, running water inside the kitchens, etc. The lighting was also perfect. I saw that three times in the month it ran. It remains one of my favorite theatrical experiences.

Made it to Minneapolis. Hi, Singdaw.

I am waving madly.

I'm the one wearing a gardenia.

I'm the one wearing a gardenia.

Hey, so am I!

[John G.]

I ended up really liking The Years. It’s not a vacation read. Its style is a little precious at times.

[John G.]

The Winners is the third volume of Backman’s Beartown trilogy. It won’t make total sense without the first two.

[John G.]

Also on the flight, I watched The Duke with Jim Broadbent and Helen Mirren. There were a few style problems, but the acting was superb.

I now have six hours to wait until my connection.

The Kindle is recharging.

Wednesday afternoon greetings!  Today I’m finishing books for both of my groups.  Reading The Daughters of Yalta with my eyes in preparation for hearing the author speak tomorrow evening.  And I’m reading When the Emperor was Divine with my ears for the group that meets Friday at the library where my career began.

Not at the same time, of course 

[Ginny]

Welcome back to North America, DR John G!

[Ginny]

DR Elmore, thanks for your update!  The mismatched eyes are very annoying and I’m sorry the interval between your surgeries is so long.  Richard and I only had to wait a week between.  Your depth perception will be off, so be careful on stairs and such.  If you had a car, I’d tell you not to drive - I couldn’t even “drive” a shopping cart!

I now have six hours to wait until my connection.

What a shame I'm working today. I am only about 2 miles away from you.

[John G.]

Singdaw, I was not prepared to see an ax-wielding Paul Bunyon at the airport. And here I was without Britten’s opera on my iTunes.

[Ron Pulliam]

Glad to hear things are progressing well for you Larry

I hope things will be better for you really soon, Michael!  Hang in there!

Saw my cardiologist this morning.

First, during check-in, they took my blood pressure which was textbook perfect!!  Then I got a flu shot! They asked if I'd had one, and when I said no, I was asked if I wanted one.  I thought they'd tell me where in the hospital to go after my appointment.  But the nurse gave it to me right then and there.

My cardiologist was very complimentary about my heartbeat (!) and tests and changed my quarterly visits to annual ones!  Yay!

I was so psyched, I stopped at CostCo on the way home.  I wasn't going to, but what the heck!

I only read Beartown.

[Ron Pulliam]

Tomorrow morning it's a surgical procedure for dental implants.

I will be out like a light, so I can't worry too much about sitting through it.

[Jrand73]

Sounds like a nice appt DR RON PULLIAM!

Chipotle headquarters claims they do NOT use MSG in any of their products.  All I know is what happened last night has only happened before with a MSG reaction.  I thought I was having a stroke.  I didn't go get my mail because I was afraid I would fall off my scooter.

[TCB]

I have already pulled that stunt.  I dn't want to repeat it.

What are your eyes and ears thinking about these books?

Yay, all great news.  That was very convenient your cardiologist give flu shots.  Is he at the VA?
