I took a long walk this evening. The temperature had dropped to something bearable.

And I had time to listen to another hour of Fair Warning. I should finish the book tonight. Fun and intense. Very topical.

We just watched Mister Scoutmaster with Clinton Webb.  If you have missed this gem do watch it.  If it has been awhile, watch it again.

Finished with my viewing and now listening to Berlioz' Symphonie Fantastique - the only Belioz piece I seem to like.  I'd heard The Damnation of Faust earlier - didn't care for it at all but a very good recording and performance.  Munch's Symphonie Fantasique is a stereophonic feast for the earballs.  And now, back to the commentary - down to the final third now.

And both people behind the counter wore masks.

Good for them.

Well, it's time for me to leave work and head home.  But first, I need to go to Fred Meyer (with my mask) and get some cat food.  I've gone a couple of times over the last week, but kept forgetting the coupon for cat food that I have.  I finally remembered it today, so I finally get to use it!

Be back later.

I got my cat food and I used the coupon, and got a couple of other things with coupons also, so I saved a few dollars tonight. :)

Finished writing the commentary.  I'm sure I'll finesse it, but at least it's done.

Listening to a Chopin piano concerto.  That guy could also write a good tune.

A big cheeseburger sounds really good, but I don’t think I would go to Sonic.

For those doing these computer things...I.E. MR BK - do you wear makeup of any kind.

My face seems to be about four different colors of pink and red, but I don't want to end up looking like this.




Whick one is you, Jack?

It is strange that all the women at Rite Aid know me on sight, and they know my name.

George, when are your branches reopening?

It's not yet been determined.  The official COVID-19 Closure notice on the library's website is:

Quote
June 1, 2020 - Library curbside service (only) added to Phase 2 of the Governor’s Safe Start plan. TRL staff is preparing for "Library Takeout" service to begin as soon as all guidelines are met. All Library facilities, including book returns, remain CLOSED to the public until further notice. Library material due dates and holds have been extended. More information can be found on our Health & Safety Update page.
