I put off My Neighbor Tortoro until Tuesday evening since today's showing was dubbed and that one is subtitled. Oh no, guess that means I won't see the Shazam sequel in its first two weeks at the box office. But I'm sure Warner Bros doesn't need my money since it has a new, guaranteed success plan for the DCEU...
Happy to report that much more of my back yard than expected is coming up as clover rather than grass. I saw my first honeybee of the spring yesterday, and like the idea of my yard becoming a sanctuary for them.
I'm realizing that yesterday's sickness scare might be attributable to my having missed my meds the night before.
I'm glad you had a good visit with Mr. S, Sheryl.
Totoro is a mild mood elevator for sure. As is Lilo, and Spirited Away if I have enough brain to actually engage with the story. Howl is right out as a tranq--too edge-of-seat at times.
HBD, Allyson!
Nice bee-clover yard, Matt. I love clover, although childhood taught me to not go barefoot through it.
Oh dear, Dana, I can empathize. My doc was alarmed at my thyroid levels and sent me to the endocrinologist. It occurred to me that the reason could be pilot error. I was getting up an hour early to take the pill (with a full glass of water) and then dozing until actual getting-up time, so I could eat soon after rising (No food for at least four hours before, and at least an hour after). And some mornings when there were appointments or needful errands in the morning I'd skip it entirely. Sometimes more than one morning a week. So I told that to the endo. And also, I was taking my iron pill soon after the thyroid pill. So she revised my pill-taking schedule to keep the antagonists apart, and my thyroid readings are better now. But yeah, walking away from a prescription dose because I'm hungry and don't want to wait an hour to eat is not a good practice. And skipping--or forgetting--is a good habit to get out of.
Thyroid meds (thankful they exist) are a pain in the brain.
Like, did my sip of coffee with milk negate taking them? I should probably start setting them by my bed and not in the kitchen. Then I can start taking them at 4 a.m. when I am freaking awake af.

I'm just going to say, it's really easy to set your phone up to remind you.
I have a reminder to take out the garbage cans on Sunday night.
My entire life is calendared. I've had a bad memory my entire life so computer scheduling was the best thing ever. Taking pills, for me and the animals, stretching so I don't get stiff working at my desk all day, watering plants, birthdays, work routine tasks, every single thing in life is in my calendar, often with both email and pop-up reminders. They don't get deleted from my email until I do them. If I don't put something into the calendar immediately it will be gone. Brain like sieve.

Does it play "Yakety Yak"?

I would forget so much stuff without phone reminders.

More of a new age marimba. Though I guess you could play Yakety Sax on marimba. But then it would need to be retitled Mumbly Marimba. I may be overthinking this.
Argh. I hate walking into Monday morning and it’s a work shitstorm. I mean, luckily not one I caused but still one I have to handle the consequences of, so….Joy.
