The most strenous part of my IHSS appointment Monday was their lack of public restrooms. I have an orientation to attend and then I'll be a certified In Home Support Service provider. Likely just in time. Seeing The Phoenician Scheme again was rewarding. It changed my views as did doing the same for the last two releases. It's still not in the top three for me, but I enjoyed it a great deal more. My 'mental health' day in Santa Cruz was a significant one for many reasons which I'll strive to document in more detail another time. Lunch with Nevin was rewarding as well, for good reasons. Inspiration and introspection as to his own path thiese past few years align well with my own. Seeing Gloria Swanson in the 1925 silent film "Stage Struck" at The Stanford gave me a whole new level of respect for her role and performance in "Sunset Blvd". She was stunning, versital and natural on film. I plan to see more of her work.
