He just doesn't want to leave you.

GET WELL VIBES FOR DC SPATS!!!

Oy, enough with the death notices already.  ;)

Alas...

Oscar-nominated director Mario Monicelli dies at 95

Sadly, it appears that he committed suicide. He had been suffering from pancreatic cancer.

I think we need to have LIFE notices.  I'm still here.  There, I've said it and I'm glad.

At 95 he should have been able to die pain free and with dignity at the hospital :(

I've had my 28.5-minute walk around the basement, watched CITY ISLAND, and sustained a pretty deep paper cut while filing some paperwork.  Not a biggie under normal circumstances, but when you're on 3 or 4 meds that have blood thinning effects it's quite an event.  I've wrapped a band-aid pretty tight around my finger to act as a tourniquet.  And my live-in EMT is in Michigan!

DR Ginny - Did watching "City Island" make you want to visit City Island? -Although, if I'm remembering correctly, they don't show too much of my favorite part of City Island: the fried seafood jernts at the "tip" of the island.

It sure did, DR Jose, and I remember the photos you posted of the fried seafood.  Will you take me there after you take me to see Eloise at the Plaza?  Good fried clams are one of the things for which I will go off my diet.

I appreciate knowing when someone in the arts has passed away.  You don't have to click on the link, JMK.

I picked up my new progressive lenses today & dropped off my old distance glasses to be sent out for new lenses.  I still need to get used to these, however, WOW the world is suddenly much brighter.  The last two times my subscription changed it was so minor I didn't spend the money for new lenses.  Of course the doctor was comparing the last change to the previous one, not to the correction in my lenses at the time.  It appears my astigmatism has gotten worse too.

After picking up my glasses I walked across the street to the library & dropped off ETHAN FROME which I thought was excellent.  I then piked up four books on hold A MUCH MARRIED MAN, THE CALLIGRAPHER'S DAUGHTER, & THE GILDED CAGE.  As I was walking out I noticed an interesting book on the "new" shelf, THE SHIP IN THE HILL & also brought it home.

As anyone read any of these books?  Ginny I know you read Gilded Cage.

Yes, DR Jane, I read In a Gilded Cage in March 2009 (according to the list I keep), but I don't remember much about the plot.

He's baaaaaaaack! And I missed Rodzinski, who's never answered my last email! I hope he will return to us.

The flight was on time and all went beautifully. I doubt any passengers are aware they owe it all to HHW vibes.

Now I'm doing laundry. Everything is unpacked.
