Is this really a Friday? My days have been off all week because of the ’mates taking days off. The past few days have all felt like Sundays.

Wishing DR Elmore a good vaccination trip. With two of those in you, I bet you’ll be taking it easy the rest of the day and tomorrow.

I need to do the same, too.

Nothing at present, but this week I watched another DVD that I can get rid of - The Eiger Sanction -  not because I don’t like the movie but because the disc itself is a hideous example of a primitive transfer, probably ported over from VHS or laserdisc. I’d enjoy seeing a proper new scan. I always remember walking down the street to see this one for a dollar (maybe it was two) at the Writers Guild theeder on Doheny.

There's nothing like a movie in which director Eastwood directed actor Eastwood as a gay man.

Also watched, for my first time, The Devil at 4 O’Clock. I’d never even known what it was about.

Exactly why is it that pizza is made in a circle, packaged in a square box, and eaten as a triangle?

Such an existential question!

Yesterday being a no-post office mail, no stock market day (in honor of President Jimmy Carter) gave the day a Sunday feel for me.

We’re supposed to get high winds today. It’s 40 outside now, but is said to feel like 25.

You'll be feeling crummy tomorrow, Elmore. But it will be a good thing to have those vaccinations over with.

I am vaccinated. It went so quickly that I was out of my 10:30 appointment by 10:32. Since I gad no idea of how long I would be at the CVS, I acheduled my ride home for 11:30. As saoon as I was vaccination area, I called Access-a-Ride to inquire about an earlier ride. They came through, and a very nice and helpful driver showed up around 11:00. I literally walked into my apartment at 11:30.

Shingles #1 was the first time I ever had a reaction to a vaccination (except a really sore arm from Tetanus shots).  I was really tired and achy, as I recall.

Be careful, Elmore. Shingrix can be hard on the body.
