Whew!  Anyway, the film was just finished because the original director had recently died.  But I didn't realize that he had started to make part 2 so long ago.

The nice thing is that right now there are some lovely cool-ish balmy breezes to go along with it, so that will be enjoyable for a while. I'm sure that later we'll have to turn on some A/C to dehumidify the jernt.

I'm looking at this plasticized card I got in the mail yesterday from GoodRx. Perhaps I have been in the dark, but I hadn't heard of them. Supposedly it's a free service, and you show the card when you're picking up a prescription. Wait, it says "at drop-off". Hmmm. Anyway, it price-compares, even against Medicare prices, and you get to pay whatever the lowest amount is. Anyone know anything about it? Scam?

I googled. Long story short -- it looks to be legit, but you may have trouble with pharmacies not wanting to accept it because they're the ones who stand to lose money on the deal.

Last night we watched the first half of Thoroughly Modern Millie, which does go on too long, but I do love the cast, costumes and sets, Joe Layton's work, and everything un-PC about the screenplay. It does try too hard at times to be camp, which is something Sandy Wilson's wonderful The Boy Friend never does. The Ken Russell film, which I love, is a wholly different animal.

I can't find anything that says a J&J booster has been approved :(

I misread the headline:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/09/21/johnson-and-johnson-booster-shot/

Darn...but at least it's very encouraging!

From George:

I got the Johnson & Johnson.  I wonder when I'll be able to get a booster, if at all

J&J’s booster was approved yesterday.


I had the Pfizer, I should be eligible for a booster mid October, I’m 10 months  too young but considered high risk due to the thyroidectomy, heart issues and past cancer diagnosis.

I haven’t decided yet if I  will  get it, I have to see what my oncologist thinks when I see him in October

Call your oncologist.  He might tell you to get it now.

I’m not eligible until mid October, it has to be at least 6 months out from your second shot and I already have my annual appointment scheduled for mid October

Earlier, for food I had two slices of pepperoni pizza from Wolfgang Puck's at Gelson's, just to see if I liked it better than the first time I had it twenty years ago - but, alas, there's some spice thing they use that just doesn't do the slice any favors. Later I had a small chicken Caesar.

I got the Saul and David opera in English on Unicorn conducted by Horenstein but am returning it. Unicorn CDs were and are notorious for "bronzing" and it won't play in any device. I've lucked out with my Unicorn CDs - none have bronzed - but this one was really BRONZE.

Tomorrow I have the day off from work.

I envy you. But I will have a few days off next week. It’s just taking too long to get here.

Finished with the Orwell. Now diving into Megan Abbott’s The Turnout, about two sisters who run a ballet studio as they’re preparing to stage The Nutcracker. Reviews had been good, but I am finding it a bit of a slog, cliched and predictable.

I have to say that after the later Schoenberg quartets and the Webern and the Berg and Kirchner and Imbrie (I kind of enjoyed the latter two), which are all atonal, it's kind of a fun relief to suddenly get the disc of Mozart quartets :)

Tomorrow, I'm leaving work early so that I can drive my friend Margo's sister to the airport.
Title: Re: STRINGS ATTACHED
Post by: George on September 23, 2021, 10:57:51 PM
Margo had some minor surgery on Tuesday and doesn't feel up to driving, so I'll take her up to the SeaTac airport.

Post by: George on September 23, 2021, 10:58:22 PM
Then, I'll come back and Margo and I will actually go see Dear Evan Hansen in a movie theater.

They have located and destroyed a third killer hornet nest here in Western Washington.  Those are really ugly cattle.  Is any other state finding these monsters?
