I met Helen and Jim at Starbucks this morning for the first time in about a month. They had some surprising news that they have bought a house near Sacramento and will be moving there in January. Helen has decided to retire, and join Jim in playing golf on the course near their new house. I forgot to mention in yesterday’s message that I watched a Netflix DVD Thursday night called Love and Other Drugs. It was about a girl who has Parkinson’s disease and her boyfriend who is a salesman for a pharmaceutical company. It was kind of a downer, so I did not care much for it and give it only 2.4 stars.
Last night I went to dinner and a movie with the Morrills and the Ariagnos. We saw In Time, a sort of science fiction movie which has a message that life should be lived as if every minute could be your last. Time is used as money, and rich people can live forever, but poor people die when their time runs out at about age 26. The method for getting more time is rigged in favor of the rich people, so it is supposed to represent the current economic system. Anyway I did not care much for it, so I give it only 2.4 stars. I was glad that the Cardinals won the world series, and also the Sharks the Redwings last night. They are having a good road trip. I feel good today.
