Frustrating e-mail a few minutes ago.

Had two smallish burgers for food from a legendary foods stand in West Hollywood - Irv's Burgers - they traveled decently and were still warm on arrival and they were pretty good.

Our plan was to fly to Chicago, rent a car, and drive to Milwaukee.

That was the smart plan. Most of the time when I've been booked on a flight from Chicago to Milwaukee or vice versa, I ended up on a bus provided by the airline. Sure hope they let you off in Milwaukee, especially if you don't have any checked luggage.

Interesting. This is a first for us.

We are headed to a gate, still don't know if we can get off.

Barstools are here - an hour late, but here.

Yay.

I'm having a real issue with these pills. I took pill one, ate the burgers five hours later, thought about taking pill two but can't remember if I actually took it. This is happening repeatedly - and I don't THINK I did take it. From now one, when I eat I will take the pill out of the bottle and put it where I can see it - that is the obvious solution. I'm taking one now and hope I didn't take it earlier.

I'm almost to page two hundred of the manuscript - horrible, tedious, but if I don't do this no one will design thing book.

About 122 pages left.

They left us out of the plane. We are now taking a Lyft to our hotel.

Bruce, you need a pill case to fill every night with the number of pills you need for the following day.

Rereading Gilgamesh.

This is disturbing:

To return to Uruk
Ishtar came,
Their city’s patroness,
Goddess of love
And fruitfulness
And war.

Yes, a pill counter. A few pill counters, actually.

Or you can ask for extra labeled bottles and split them up into morning, afternoon, evening, or whatever. Then when you take a pill, turn the bottle over.

Exactly this. I'd never remember which meds I've taken without it.

DR elmore3003 - I'm late to the party, but I like this one. It's considerably more expensive than some of the other models.

Thanks so much, singdaw!

There's duplication of sections and lyrics in the new book, which covers the first quarter century, includes full sections from volume 2, which was all about Climate and Global Warming, and sections of volume 3, which was all about the 2016 political season.

Had dinner with friends during Restaurant Weeks. Amazing Italian food. The beef marrow made me melt, it was so good. And so long since I had eaten it.
