Should I care about Ernest Hemingway?
No.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

I generally do not care about Hemingway, but he had polydactyl cats, and I have a polydactyl cat. So if the documentary is about the cats?

Only if it means reading The Paris Wife.

Weather was great tonight to take Mom out for her birthday dinner on the outdoor patio of Houlihan's. We happened to run into my best friend and his wife there, and they sprung for dessert (yay!) and had a waitress sing Happy Birthday to Mom (not so yay). We also found that both of them are refusing to get vaccinated, which I don't even know how that's possible if you're a pediatrics nurse in a children's hospital.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

That was confusing for a second, because I read a just-OK book called The Paris Orphan, which has Martha Gellhorn as a character!

Heh. The Paris Wife is by Paula McLain, who also has a book about Gellhorn, which I have not read yet.

Re: Hemmingway. While I’m not terribly into his writing, he was an interesting person who lived through interesting times and knew other writers and artists of the time period. I could see a Hemmingway bio being worthwhile.

I'm enjoying "Hemingway", but I find biographies interesting. Having said that, I'm not running out to buy any of his books. I found the first episode, where they talk about how his writing impacted other writers the most interesting so far.

Ugh Matt Re: friends refusing vaccine. So far the ppl I know refusing are front desk lady at work, janitor at work, dogwalker’s husband, and my cousin who had Covid. Oh and so far, my son. I am losing my ability to hold my tongue at all. It is selfish and stupid.
