From DR Singdaw:

Watched The Ballad of Wallis Island tonight. Thanks, DR Jane, for the reminder!   

I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

[Jane]

TWO!

[Jane]

Bruce, good vibes all goes well at your appointment with the neurologist.

[Jane]

I have one doctor that I see in Portland and I stress about the drive, always allowing more time just in case.  Once there it can take awhile to park in the large complex so I need to add extra time for that.

[Jane]

Fortunately I only go to that doctor once a year.

Elmore, did you see my note about the library ordering your book?

I did. I hope lots of readers check it out. Thanks for requesting it.

[MichaelG]

Neurologist vibes for bk!

[Jrand75]

Doctor vibes also for DR JANE.

[Jrand75]

Thanks for that link DR FREDDIE.

Most entertaining. I think there are many folks who feel that way about Ayn Rand's books......ignore the politics and enjoy the story.

I hope they order multiple copies.

[John G.]

I cleaned a little. Drove myself crazy with a new vacuum cleaner. Baked a crustless pinto bean pie with coconut and pecans. Watched the rest of Queen of the Desert.

[John G.]

The library has ordered the Lodon cast live recording of Opening Night.

That can be applied to moi. On my first read-through of Atlas, I was thoroughly taken with Dagny's cross-country search for you-know-who. I even read that entire middle part again on a couple of occasions.

But get this, DR Jrand74:  Guess what the very first inspiration was for me to learn how to fly? I kid you not. I had read it several years before being taken on that first flight around L.A., but that initial spark was already in place.

[ChasSmith]

To be clear, I liked many other parts of that book, and others, as well, but that section was the standout.

What else did I read back in the day? The Fountainhead, Anthem, We the Living (really liked that one), don't remember what else.

(I caught the last ten minutes of The Fountainhead on TCM last night prior to watching Hud - which believe it or not, I had never seen before. Enjoyed that very much. I would have carried on with A Face in the Crowd, if sleep didn't matter. But it did, and I own that one anyway.)

[Ginny]

Friday afternoon greetings!

DR Elmore, I just came from Zooming to this month’s book discussion at the library where my career began.  After we discuss the monthly selection we go around and tell what else we’ve been reading.  I showed my copy of Annabelle & Thatch and said the author graduated from both Middletown High and Miami University.  Without any coercion the current director said he was going to order a copy!

[ChasSmith]

Good work, DR Ginny!   

[Jane]

Doctor vibes also for DR JANE.

Thank you.

[Jane]

I love numbing drops.

[Jane]

Hopefully once the drops wear off I'll still be ok with the plugs.

That's great.  I believe libraries should carry books by local authors.

[Jane]

From the ophthalmologist's office I walked over to the gym to meet Keith.  The sun was on my back and I kept having to pull my shirt away from me it was soooo hot.

[Jane]

I had time to use some of the equipment but not the treadmill.

[John G.]

I requested the library order my latest. They bought the others.

[Jane]

I'm changing my top and getting out for a walk before it gets too hot.  I will mostly stay in the shade.

[Freddie]

Hopefully once the drops wear off I'll still be ok with the plugs.

Vibes all will be OK.

[ChasSmith]

DR Jane, I wonder if those plugs are similar to what I got after the two cataract surgeries. I think those were steroids, and mine were working their way out after a few days so they changed me over to drops. Hope you have better luck with keeping them in!

How DOES one request libraries to buy books?

[bk]

Back from the neurologist and a very confusing search for my car - somehow I ended up in the wrong lot for the east tower - have no idea how that happened but it took fifteen minutes to figure it out.

[bk]

Had a good visit. Definitely have Myasthenia Gravis. Tomorrow, I add to the pill count with Prednisone, some supplement, and one other thing that I take weekly - four in one day to start, then six, then eight, but only the one day a week. He wants to wait on the other two pills to see how these work. I have a phoner in four weeks for progress. Interestingly, all these new pills have zero co-pay and I think they did the other pills incorrectly and I will be bringing that up when I go to pick all this stuff up this evening.

I decided to chance Laurel Canyon and it was fine all the way there and all the way home.
