Better, he's been on just a cannula rather than mask for the past couple of days with good oxygen numbers and excellent blood pressure. Still weak and painfully swollen, but it sounds like they're getting ready to transfer him to a rehab facility.
That's good to hear, Matt.
A Bronzer friend -- newt, if any of you Bronzed back in the day -- is writing a freelance article and looking for Pennsylvania residents over 50 who travel by plane fairly often and don't have a passport. Any takers, hit up my profile address and I'll pass on the word to her.
If you ask me, the newt name still means something! (I love newt.)
Was trying to figure out when my last car payment is. Kinda hard when you can't find the account # and apparently never wrote down your u&pwd. I guess I should call them...I think I might've set it up all electronic...and then never logged in.
My candidate for minion accepted the offer! She starts in July. Likely when I'm in Iceland. So now I have to pull together a training plan absent me for like 2 weeks. Which I should do anyway, because best case scenario is she starts the day I get back@@. We coulda required a June or earlier start date, but she's gotta move here, was hoping to hike a portion of the Appalachian trail & launch slipped a year in the course of hiring. Is what it is. I liked her a lot. And she's organized in ways I am not & that will be great.
Very good to hear that is settled, sarameg.
there's a place in downtown Seattle that makes the most amazing fries I've ever had -- I think they cook them in duck fat. SO GOOD.
Mmmmmm! There's a food truck here that serves duck-fat fried tater tots. Delicious.
Home again, home again. Definitely a migraine, but the pain is like a 1, maybe 1.5 However, I have crazy nausea. I almost booted on the plan, which was a totally normal smooth flight. But I didn't, thank god.
My FitBit glitched and told me I was 6,000 steps over my goal when I was only at 5,100 steps. (Though it wouldn't be unheard of for me to make my step goal –900 steps.)
The trade war has hit my library
It hit my theatre the day after the tariffs were announced. Even though we ordered a new Genie lift before that date they hadn't started building it yet so it's going to cost an extra $600 or so. I've been getting notices from other vendors that various products will be going up anywhere from 6-12%.
I have been wondering how aluminum tariffs will impact us but I don't know who to ask.
I didn't think Bustle would spoil me for Infinity War, but scrolling article titles last night I ran across a very minor spoiler that I won't share here. (The title mentioned a thing I was assuming would happen -- not something major, like "Everyone Becomes Lizard People Who Tap Dance and Juggle" -- but still. Dang, Bustle.) Glad I'm seeing it in 2 1/2 hours.
Migraine is still barely lingering -- maybe a 0.5 on a scale of 0-10. That won't stop me from seeing the movie. Hell, back in the day, I saw Batman Begins with a full-on migraine with a pain level of about 7. I don't recommend it, but I wasn't going to let a migraine stop me.
Marvel execs must be wiggling in their board room chairs with utter delight at the amount of buzz.
