Well, you've read the notes, the notes had a good eye day, and now it is time for you to post until the good eye cows come home.

Four days after posting it, KevinH's review finally shows up on Amazon.
Bruce Kimmel's memoir is a delight! His account of his friendship with Richard Sherman is heartwarming and joyous. While recounting their wonderful relationship through the years, Mr. Kimmel takes us behind-the-scenes of several Sherman Brothers tribute concerts. I'm happy to say that I attended some of these and was lucky to meet Mr. Sherman, who graciously autographed CDs for my sister and me. He was just as Mr. Kimmel described: warm and friendly. "Richard and Me..." is highly recommended!

Very nice, BK and Kevin!

From last night:
Jane, thanks for the Wordle Congrats!
About the number of cats one might have, my niece now has seven, count 'em, SEVEN cats! She got another one last month...but don't tell my mom! She doesn't know, and probably shouldn't, just yet, anyway. ;)
Congrats to Keith's 2-fer Wordle!

I was really tired last night. I was in bed by eight o'clock, woke for a bathroom break around 3:15 and then had to deal with two rambunctious cats until the alarm rang at 5:30. I turned off the alarm and dozed until 6:15.
-
I have a trip to the basement and then I am having a quiet day, I hope. Tomorrow is another matter, however.

BK, it's great the eBay sales are going so well.

Now that our DR Chassmith is retiring from cat parenting, I am looking for a new catsitter to take my three babies when I can no longer care for them. So, I posted a notice on Facebook; I thought it was an innocent inquiry, but I was amazed that so many friends responded with concerns about my health. I am happy that there were a couple of good offers to take all three cats off my hands.
-
DR Elmore, you know I'd take them if I wasn't so far away. I'd deal with my DH somehow.

We had honeydew with breakfast. I wonder whether honeydew pie would taste as good as cantaloupe pie.
The sweetness of the honeydews from Amazon Fresh has been inconsistent, but they're almost always tasty.

That should have been two posts. I'll make up for that with this extra post.

That's great eye news from BK. Even better when you get custom made glasses that are specific for each eye.

DR John G.,
What do you do with all these pies? Do you have a Youtube cooking channel you haven't told us about?
-
DR Elmore, it was so gratifying to see those responses on Facebook. And what an outpouring of concern! Well-loved guy, our DR Elmore.
As I recall, you've posted a hint of this topic a couple of times over the years, and it seems like there was always someone who said they'd take them in a heartbeat. I note that one of these lives in Connecticut. Maybe that's a "sign"? Someone else said he'd literally drive up from Florida for them. There are good people out there. And yes, too bad DR Laura lives at the other end of the continent! :)

Jane and others who are interested - Leslie Odom, Jr. news
"Of course, some megahits and stars attract far higher prices: When Leslie Odom Jr. returned to the cast of 'Hamilton' on Sept. 9, the top ticket price was $1,200. The price will climb to $1,500 by the time he leaves again in November."

I think I was in third grade when my Uncle Harold said to my mother, his eyes are bad; see how close his face is to the paper he's drawing on? That was most likely the very first time my mother actually looked at me since my brother Macbeth was born five years earlier.
So, I was taken to see Dr Nesbet who remained my eye doctor for the next 26 years. The first time the glasses were put on my head was very much like the moment Dorothy opened the door and saw Oz in technicolor. It was one huge discovery of the world around me.
-
TOD - just the major highlights, since vision care has been a lifelong thing for me.
All ages are approximate.
Age 8: First glasses, on finding that I was very nearsighted. My grandmother realized that when she and I were waiting at a bus stop and I kept asking how you know which bus is the right one. I couldn't even tell there was a route and destination thingy on the bus. So off to the eye doctor, and that was the start of the rest of my life. I then wore glasses throughout school and college and my first several years in L.A., with changes of prescriptions as needed - and it seemed like that was every couple of years.
Age 27: My then-new and wonderful dentist was in the Cal Fed building in the Miracle Mile. I mentioned to him that I needed a good eye doctor because I hadn't had a regular one since moving out there. He unhesitatingly recommended one on another floor of the same building, a leading contact lens specialist who patiently, and over time, talked me into at least trying a pair of the latest soft contact lenses because I was a perfect candidate for them. These were new, super thin "breathing" ones you could sleep in. Friends told me I'd be an absolute idiot not to try, so I did. He put a pair into my eyes, I blinked, looked around, and my life changed right there. I didn't even want him to take those out. Because of the strong cleaners that irritated my eyes, the "sleeping" ones eventually didn't work for me, but I stayed in contacts for years, always keeping a current pair of glasses for alternate use whenever, and to satisfy FAA requirements for my pilot license.
Age 40: The need for reading glasses reared its head right at the time they say it happens for many people, and I wore the lowest strength readers over the contacts for quite a long time before another change was needed.
Age 50: Now in Connecticut, I was with another contact lens specialist who said I should try "mono-vision" - wearing a distance lens in one eye and a reading-distance lens in the other. This worked like a charm, and I did mono-vision from that day on. Eventually it became a little more difficult to get the prescriptions just right, due to what I now know was the beginnings of cataracts forming. And I always kept glasses for whenever I didn't want to bother with contacts. At one point I got my first pair of bifocals, then went to progressives to have the full range without the "line". Maybe I never had a really good pair, but those were always a compromise that never gave absolutely solid clarity at the various distances. But they worked. Fast forward to:
Age 70: I was now a candidate for cataract surgery, but I delayed for a couple of years - maybe because of the pandemic, I don't remember - but I finally got seen by my first ever opthalmologist who agreed that it was absolutely time, and she would do the surgeries. There are a few ways you can go in choosing what your new internal lens will be, and since I had never in my life had 20/20 distance vision, AND I wanted it all covered by insurance, I chose the standard distance lenses in both eyes. That meant from that day forward I would forever require reading glasses, and I was fine with that, because now both eyes would be the same and standard corrective strengths would work equally for both. For the first time in years, my vision would be "balanced". And it's been great. Since I'm an experienced contact lens wearer, I also have the option to do "mono-vision" again by wearing a closer lens in one eye so I don't have to bother with glasses at any time that I'd rather not be encumbered with them. Haven't done that yet, but I still might.
Thank you for coming to my little talk. Please leave your donation at the door.

I told my cataract surgeon at my followup exams that this was the third great moment in the life of my eyes, much as you describe. The first pair of glasses was a revelation. The first contact lenses were a revelation. And now this had brought the feeling of those moments right back. She likes hearing patients' "testimonies", and enjoyed my detailed descriptions of those times and how they had affected me.

I started wearing glasses at age 13.
My parents noticed I sat very close to the television. And after class I would always go up to the blackboard to copy down the assignment the teacher had written there.
Been wearing them ever since. Had a contact lens phase - and still have a pair of the soft ones - but for some reason I cant read when I have them in, so they may have dissolved in their case. I guess I should look someday.

Speaking of shoulders, and we sort of were -

Whenever I left a pair in the case for a long time, I'd find that they'd soaked up the solution and dried up. You can "bring them back" by re-soaking them, but I can't recall if I ever put such a pair in my eyes again. Maybe I did if they looked undamaged.
-
DR Laura, you would be my first choice to take my three little devils. I know they would have fun with you.
Aww, thank you. My DH would just have to cope.
Aunt Sassy would take them in a heartbeat. But that calico cat of hers has quite an attitude.

DR Singdaw happy 93rd birthday to your aunt.
-
From DR Singdaw:
Some guy on television is saying that you shouldn't use the laundry detergent cap to measure out your detergent. He says you only need 2 tablespoons to do a full load, and if you're using more, it is not washing out fully and your clothes are not as clean as when you use less. He also says you should use the shortest cycle possible - 15 minutes, or, at the most, 30. Otherwise, it's too hard on your clothes.
I don't use much detergent though I probably pour out more than 2 tablespoons (is that liquid or powder?).

DR Singdaw happy 93rd birthday to your aunt.
Ditto! Happy birthday to singdaw's aunt!

Henry Jaglom has died. I wish I could say I enjoyed his movies, but I never found one I liked.

I wonder why my nearsightedness wouldn't have been obvious in my first and second grade classrooms prior to the bus stop revelation.
Hmmm...
Maybe it was. I truly don't remember.
I do remember sitting in the classrooms, certainly able to see the large cursive alphabet above the chalkboard in one of those grades.

Did it again. I was looking for something and found something else that was in a weird place and I'd forgotten about it for a long time. It's that set of Annette recordings in the long vertical box -- 2 CDs and a book. I should play it.
I'll betcha DR Jrand75 has that one. This might be my only actual Annette thing, unless I find a record or two, probably with the Disney stuff.
Oh, and I not only didn't find what I WAS looking for, I now forget what it was. Make of that what you will...

TOD: I got my first glasses in my 40s, when I couldn't read the lyrics in the crappy edition of Carmina Burana the chorus provided us. I made my first optometrist appointment and purchased the beautiful, newly engraved vocal score about the same day. I've always had progressive lenses, with the prescription changing every few years.
-
My wife first got glasses when she about 6 or 7, and was amazed to discover there were cracks in the sidewalk.
-
Bad photocopy? Or the edition was hard to read, itself, with small print?

Your long post was very interesting. You should also know how lucky you are that you ended up with 20/20 in both eyes. I certainly didn't. I know many people, including Keith who do not end up with equal vision. He is fine those because his vision still improved more than mine did after the surgery.

I need glasses or contact lenses in general, but reading my phone is so much easier without glasses or lenses.
My eye doctor warned me that I would miss my wonderful close up vision if I put the corrected lenses in, still I love not having to wearing glasses. They were always falling off my face, hurt my nose and sometimes were very painful behind my ears.

My mother and sister both wore glasses and I had a weak eye muscle so my parents were very good about taking me to the eye doctor. I also remember in school they would have us read the eye chart to check our eyes and report to our parents if we couldn't read it. Maybe that started later. I can't recall what grade we began learning to read, maybe 1st.

I liked having my cute little purse. I showed all my friend my purse and glasses, and that is where the glasses stayed. When my mother went to the teacher/parent conference she came home and said "Your teacher didn't know you wore glasses". I was busted and the teacher made sure I wore them during class.

Thursday afternoon greetings! Just returned from an uneventful quarterly checkup with our primary care physician.

TOD - I started wearing glasses for nearsightedness in 3rd grade and transitioned into bifocals when the farsightedness of middle age showed up. Since my cataract surgeries in December 2016 and January 2017, I now only use drugstore readers. I have bifocal lenses, both clear and sunglasses, with a mild distance prescription and the reading magnification of my OTCs. Those are mostly for driving and other occasions when I need a little distance correction. My distance vision isn’t as good as it was right after the surgeries and I’m going to talk to my eye doctor about it at my next appointment early next year.
-
I'm up, I'm up - about six hours of sleep.
-
I’m now 1:40 in Rust. 40 minutes to go, and I have just about lost interest.
-
Then the phone call with Apple. We took screenshots, went through this and that but nothing makes the CD drive work. We did fix something that got set up wrong with the back-up drive, so that's good. Meanwhile, we're now going to try the one thing we haven't. I went to Amazon and bought a powered hub - because we've read that these ports don't get enough power for the USB-C - it's arriving between five and ten and I'll know instantly if that's been the culprit all along. It would make sense that my 2015 iMac also wouldn't ultimately recognize it, although it did when I first got it - I wouldn't be surprised if they lessened the ports on one of the OS updates on that - but the joke is, it still works just fine on the 2010 laptop. None of it makes a lick of sense to me. But I'm hoping the powered hub works. I don't really need its extra ports, but it's worth it if we can get the CD drive to work. If not, I can return the hub.

Wow!
I told my surgeon that my new 20/20 vision had instantly flashed me back to when I sat outside my Beverly Hills apartment wearing my contacts that first evening, marveling at how I could see the individual leaves on the trees. And now I was reliving that thrill. Theoretically, that first time would have been even better because back in those years my vision was correctable to 20/15, which can only be described as stunning.

Thank you. I'm slowly getting there. My focus has been on research, plus I'm having trouble concentrating on reading.
Due to the urgency and high risk of blindness, stoke, or a heart attack, I'm already on prednisone and have an appointment with the rheumatologist for the 1st.
-
I've been researching low inflammatory foods as I need to avoid high ones. Plus I need to cut out carbs and sugar as the odds are the prednisone will send me over the line from pre-diabetic to full blown.

2 tablespoons (is that liquid or powder?)
Liquid
I measured 2 tablespoons for a load of wash today. I think it is more than I usually pour in for a load unless it is a heavy dirty load.

Good evening!

Thanks, DRs George, Freddie and Jane for the comments on my review.

~~~CONTINUED HEALTH VIBES~~~ for DR Jane

Promising medical news from BK

Anybody got any caramel corn? :)
-
Or pie? :)

I wonder why hemorrhoids aren't called ASSteroids. Maybe DR ChasSmith would have some ideas.

-
Jane, sending you more health vibes.
-
Good night, friends.
-
And others.
-
Finished Ghostlight. Yes, yes, yes.
-
A couple of the deleted scenes are also good.
-
Good night, all.

Back from our first "Built to Last: What Great Films Have in Common" film class. Tonight's theme was topicality. We started off seeing scenes from The Great Dictator, Casablanca, and Queen Christina, then watched Blindspotting.
-
I tried watching Blindspotting on a plane trip several years ago but couldn't make it past the first scene. It was much better to see it in a theater setting with people. It's much too intense for my type of airplane movie.
-
Dozed off, watched a little silly movie, and attempted to use a powered hub on the CD drive - doesn't work, so back it goes tomorrow.
-
Hello out there?
-
Another page six day?
-
Not very sporting.
-
Perhaps if we go courting?
-
But not aborting.
-
We might do some sorting.
-
Or cavorting.
-
But let's not do ANY snorting.
-
Or thwarting.
-
Or distorting.
-
Well, rhyming got us to page seven.
-
But seriously, where the HELL is George these late nights?
-
I did have a lovely telephonic conversation with Mr. Brent Barrett.
-
And the song of the day:

Love it!

Trying to post the new notes. Not working.
-
There, just went through.
-
But seriously, where the HELL is George these late nights?
Dilly-dallying, as well as dally-dillying. ::)
-
Last night, we ran act one of J&H all the way through for the first time...and I just had to forget my script at home. ::)
:o
-
Fortunately, they did have some extra scripts, but, of course, they were clean without any of my blocking, but I got through it, for the most part.
-
New notes are up.
-
Up are new notes.
-
The only real problem was the song, "Alive," because I wasn't there last week when it was blocked/choreographed. I was working barback at the Brad Williams comedy show at the Washington Center.
-
I've seen them.
-
I've read them.
-
I watched the video that they made when they originally choreographed it, and wrote some blocking in my script, but I didn't have it with me. Anyway, tonight I did, and we ran it three times, so I was able to get some detail choreo that I didn't get just from watching it. :)
-
I wrote them.
-
Then we ran some of the other big numbers, and all of that went well. We'll run act two on Monday and Tuesday.
-
Gratuitous Post #200!!
