Chipmunk came out from behind planter.  This one was chirping at me.  I don't remember that
happening before.  It kept looking like it wanted to head into the garage and then I snapped at it.
It eventually managed to cross the driveway without venturing inside the garage.

Found that laptop had crashed and it rebooted.  Then I was going through TiVo menu
and it was doing it's normal beeps, but then there was a quick static sound and it
stopped beeping.  The shows have sound.  I changed the volume of the beeps and that
didn't restore them.
--   2:45p  Pritzker's briefing

There is a teacher from Lombard on "Jeopardy" (taped in Feb)
He is NOT a "Jen" -- he's a "Jong".  The other 2 are women with "A" names followed
immediately by double letters.
--   4:00p  Leaving to bike 2 mi;  It's cool & windy so I'm not too motivated.

--   4:25p  Leaving to pickup dinner @McD
I had first tried to order through app at home.  Normally, I wait until I'm actually there.
But the app has been giving me a hard time getting the free fries.  This time it was
telling me I had to wait an hour.  So, I decided to reinstall the app, and that worked.

--   4:50p  Inside after biking 2 mi;  There was an e-mail that said my prescriptions
were ready.  I had just driven by the pharmacy on the way back from McD!
--   5:00p  Dinner @home: double fish + free fries

--   5:20p  Checked messages on land line and pharmacy said that Medicare wanted to know
the month & date that I purchased my glucose meter.  Why would they expect a senior to
know that.  But I did have a record of getting it in 2017.  What would they have done
if I had NO idea when I got it?  Called the pharmacy and had to go through an automated
menu.  Is there a choice for calling back with an answer?  No.  I just picked
"anything else" and it worked.
