Later my three siblings and their spouses/significant others, my niece and I went to a local Italian restaurant. We had a nice time.

Lots of time before my flight. I rented the car at 10am Saturday. I had to return it by 10 am today in order to avoid paying an additional $80 or so. Two more hours till my flight.

TOD:
I noticed many years ago that the bar was set much higher for women pop singers than men. There are many successful mediocre (and even down right bad) male pop/rock singers, but females always have great pipes. It's a typical sexist double standard. Mick Jagger and David Bowie have fairly mediocre voices and Bob Dylan is downright bad. And I suspect it's Randy Newman's voice (somewhere between mediocre and bad) that prompted Bruce's question. None of these men are favorites of mine. But coming up with even one bad successful female pop singer is a challenge. And, no, rap artists like Nicki Minaj don't count!

Okay, it was difficult, but I finally thought of one mediocre pop singer that I actually like and that's Ringo Starr.

Elmore, I hadn't seen that the kitten was still alive. Has there been an update?

Not yet. I'm hoping.

This is "supposed" to be the last day for 90 degrees. Mid-80s tomorrow (thank God), a couple of degrees warmer on Thursday, then a nice drop on Friday & Saturday.

I'm sorry, that's the forecast for my area. NYC is unfortunately always a little, um, warmer.

They just posted this update:

“He is critical. He is awake and lifts his head, but she is worried that they are having a hard time maintaining his blood pressure. That is the main issue right now, because low blood pressure means inadequate perfussion and can lead to organ failure. She actually remembers him from his previous hospitalization. The reason they could not find his charts yesterday is that he had been hospitalized as Peter Mego last time. She said that when they opened his belly last night it was full of pus and debris. The next 24 hours are critical, but she feels he has a chance.”

I'm up, I'm up - I was up at six after two-and-a-half hours of sleep, and then up now after another two-and-a-half hours of sleep - not enough.

Back last night from our 8 day Mississippi River cruise from New Orleans to Memphis. Three hours later, our air conditioner went out...and the temp here in Austin is over 100.

Hopefully, the repair man will be here today.

Good luck it is fixed today. Did you enjoy your cruise?

Fantastic cruise, but if you have any mobility issues, avoid Graceland.

I am glad you enjoyed the cruise. Interesting about Graceland.

Then he took me to see his new “ninja academy,”. If you’ll remember Patrick was a contestant on “American Ninja Warrior” about five years ago. The show is so popular that there are places where people can do obstacles such as on the show. . His is only for children. They have birthday parties and summer camp. It seems to be a hit.

It sounds like a place I might have booked a birthday party for the boys when they were young.

Tuesday afternoon greetings! We are back from a delightful day at the New York Historical Society Museum and Library. Saw the noon showings of both introductory films, then looked at the first floor exhibits and the shop. Had a pleasant lunch in the cafe, then went to the second floor for the reason we chose that venue, an exhibit honoring the late Bill Cunningham. Also admired the library and the museum's extensive collection of Tiffany lamps. Back at the hotel, just ahead of a thunderstorm, resting until it's time to head for the Shubert for HELLO, DOLLY.

Which is why we opted for taxis to and from the museum today...

DR Laura, here is this afternoon's report on little Mego from Mafnificat. He reminds me so much of Thatch.
Mego is still alive, but not stable medically. The major issue is that his blood pressure keeps dropping - not as bad as last night, when it was so low as to be unmeasurable, but still very concerning.

When the surgeons opened his belly last night, they found no leakages, but plenty of pus, debris, and adhesions. Mego is still in septic shock, which is extremely serious in humans and in animals. In shock, low blood pressure means inadequate perfussion (blood flow) which in turn can quickly lead to organ failure. That's why he is on two vasopressors, on top of the two antibiotics and fentanyl for the pain. The sweater is to keep him warm, because he is also hypothermic.

He is very fragile, so we call every two hours for an update. The next 24 hours are going to be crucial.

Poor kitty. My first thought was it was Thatch when I saw the photo. I hope he makes it.

TCB, I'm concerned about your leg problem. Can you see a doctor about it?

Mega vibes to little Mego.
