He and his character were unappealing to me and there, IMHO, wasn't any chemistry between him and Hepburn.
The procedure went very smoothly: Anesthesia and several sharp pricks in my lower back around - or into - my spine. I have a huge bandaid covering the site. I feel quite good at the moment.
I'll be in late today. It turns out that my credit card was hacked! AARRGGHH!! They changed my e-mail address on my on-line account, opened a checking account in my name, started taking cash advances from the credit card and depositing them into this new checking account. I called the card's fraudulent hotline last night and now I'm talking with them again to deal with the checking account and deposits. I'll be in as soon as I can. :-(
This all literally started just yesterday. When I first checked my e-mails (I have several) yesterday in the morning, everything was fine. Then when I checked again in the evening, over 300 spam e-mails came in just that afternoon for the one that I use for this credit card when I NEVER get any on that e-mail address. I was just marking them as spam and deleting them when I noticed that one of them was for the bank that issued the credit card. It looked legitimate, saying that the e-mail address for my account had changed. I logged in (I did NOT click on any link in the e-mail) and the security question was different! I was eventually able to log into the account and I changed the password and security questions, and that's when I saw that they made a whole bunch of $50 cash advances, and every single one had a $10 charge...totaling $1400!! They also created a checking account (which I never had) on this account and transferred the money into that checking account. It didn't look like they actually withdrew any of the cash advances, so that's kind of good, I guess. Anyway, I was able to get the card cancelled and they'll issue a new one. I'll be sent some affidavits to sign, but I won't be liable for any of the charges. NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I am home! I have a little bit of Lena Horne work toight for Joshie and I will return to City center tomorrow to help him prepare for Friday's sitzprobe.
