Back from a dinner with friends. Had a lousy burger topped with guacamole. It looked nothing like the appetizing photo they had of it.

That's frustrating.

Just heard from a friend that his wife had a stroke. Cognitively, she’s fine. But her speech and BP are not.

I am so sorry

Wow. Rain here. Today and into tomorrow. Who'd a thunk it?

And I just heard wind gusts up to 43 mph and possible tornadoes here on the island

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’ve been seeing commercials for it featuring Martin Sheen, but I have no idea how it works

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 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!

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.

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.
