Fr 12/4/20- Buddy Is Still On The Mend

 Fr 12/4/20- Buddy Is Still On The Mend

***Buddy is eating like a horse, but I don't know if this is a sign of health or a symptom of his overactive thyroid. And, I think I will begin the gel-pen later this afternoon when I return from the afternoon walk. I can monitor him for several hours before bed and hopefully if there is a negative reaction it will be before Brewer closes on Saturday. And just hope that the medication works and he can begin the treatment for his thyroid condition. 

CHANGE OF PLANS: By early afternoon I've decided to wait and begin the gel-pen tomorrow morning, Saturday, just after I get up.  That will give him three doses before I call Dr. Kirk on Monday afternoon and if Buddy has a bad reaction the hospital will be open on Monday. 

Up 8am: Bright and sunny with temps in the upper 40's.

Reserved 'THE KING' and 'TRAIN TO BUSAN PRESENTS: PENINSULA' (Hoopla). The premise reminded me of Donald Westlake's 'DROWNED HOPES'. A large stash of cash is left behind after some kind of disaster and a criminal gang goes back to get it. 'DROWNED HOPES' was a town submerged because of a dam, and in 'PENINSULA' it's a zombie apocalypse in Korea.

Description at IMDB:

"A zombie virus has in the last 4 years spread to all South Korea. 4 Koreans in HK sail through the blockade to Incheon for USD20,000,000 on a truck.

I enjoyed it. Nothing like a gutsy (pun intended!) zombie virus film to take your mind off the problems at hand. This film was a sequel and the first one, 'TRAIN TO BUSAN' is available on Amazon Prime and now in my queue. 

Then another episode of  'LEAH REMINI: Scientology And The Aftermath' (Netflix).

150pm: Parkview, Country Club, Laurel, north on Lincoln through the center of the park, back west on the northside and up the hill, Fairway, and up to 940...ONE HOUR AND 30 MINS...Mp3...91.9FM-NPR...

Read 'THE ETHICAL ASSASSIN' for an hour in the living room. 

520pm: ON THE TREADMILL... 2 MILES. I watched most of an episode of 'THE CROWN'.

In the tub with DAVID LISS and listening to THE MODERN JAZZ QUARTET, MODERN ENGLISH. 

***I've given Buddy almost an entire can of Frisky for the last two days. He's still yelling for more. He's pooping and pissing just fine and I'm going to make notes to empty his box on Wednesday as well as Saturday to cut down on the urinary infections. Can a dirty litter box cause infections? This is a question that I must ask Dr. Kirk.

I watched the Netflix disc 'EYE IN THE SKY'. An American/British drone strike on a terrorist suicide cell in Kenya kills a young girl selling loaves of bread outside the compound. American military techs in bases in Nevada launch rockets with exacting precession at targets on the far side of the globe, but isn't this just another more deadly form of terrorism?; with Helen Mirren, Aaron Paul, and Alan Rickman. Not a bad film, but could have been better.
