Prior to that, there were the dreaded updates requiring a restart - I did them then before it could even load everything it said there was another one.  So, did that one and left - it was done by the time I got back.  Guess I'll think about food right about now.   VERY hot out.

At Ollie's they had Men's 55+ Multiple Vitamins in a 400 count bottle for $4.99.  I bought one.

It says "Compare to Centrum Silver".....and I thought well you could probably compare them to "Annette Funicello", too, the result would be just about the same.

I just got another update notification... and I looked for something to click or right-click on that would tell me what it was for.

But there was...  nothing.

In the article that said he was going to Walter Reade, precautionary visit, it also said he'd been injected with some unapproved anti-body thing. 

It is the drug that I currently would want if I got sick.  I have to hope it works, sigh.

This afternoon I watched the first act of Die Zauberflöte, and it's really a lovely Julie Taymor production. I'm just about to lose my chance to get back in for Act II, but that's all right. Some other time. I pulled out my full score halfway through it, and really should have done so at the beginning, because, man, it's been years.

When anyone says "Walter Reed Hospital", my first thought is The Day the Earth Stood Still.

Keith's cousin has been sending us updates about his son's surgery.  Except it hasn't begun yet as the surgeon is still in surgery and will be for another hour or two.

Gearing up to move when my lease is up.  A few miles away from where I am now.  The rent is cheaper, the area is nicer, and I think I need a change of scene.

The bag is ready for delivery at the Drive By Baby Shower Tomorrow.

Only one sister is going with me.

I put the receipt in a sealed envelope and wrote on the outside of it "Receipt if you want to return/exchange anything."  I put it in the bottom of the bag.  I went back into the kitchen and THAT envelope was still on the table.

I had put my cable bill in the gift bag......I thought for a moment about leaving it there.....but a saner head prevailed and I switched them out.

:D

We watched the new iteration of The Boys in the Band tonight on Netflix. I've always found the play kind of a bitter pill. But it was very well done.

Sounds like a good move.

I ushered for a screening of Chicago tonight. It was great seeing it on the big screen again. And the first time in a few years. I think the movie is actually quite good.

We had an audience of about 100 and they seemed to enjoy it. Nobody left early. Nobody really seemed to leave for the restroom either.

I am ushering again on Sunday for a screening of Moana. They're all part of a movie musical series that the theater is presenting.

The kids movies (Moana, Sing, Frozen, Lion KIng) are on Sunday afternoon while the more adult fare (Chicago, Rent, Evita, Sweeney Todd) is on Friday nights.

I had to take tickets (actually scan them). I had my mask on securely and my gloves on. We had someone taking temperatures at the door.

I've been watching MY OCTOPUS TEACHER, a documentary on Netflix streaming. I find it quit interesting. I needed something gentle--no murders or scandal or outrageous behavior.
