The Lobo Men basketball team won another round in the NCAA playoffs this afternoon. I don’t really follow basketball, but several people in the office do, so a couple of staff set up laptops in one of our conference rooms and watched the game on the big screen while they worked on maps and web pages. Other staff had the score updates rolling across the tops of their screens, so it was hard to miss the game this afternoon.

In Plain Sight is filming on our block tomorrow morning, so they are going to have the streets closed around the office. A site manager came in this afternoon and asked for permission to use the front of our building and the reception area to do some special scenes using a small crew next week. I didn’t see any problem with it as long as they don’t damage the building.

I dropped by the pharmacy to pick up some pseudoephedrine for allergies and there were two women in front of me. I noticed they were taking a long time. When the clerk had finished ringing up the first woman, she made three trips between the register and the consulting area to move more than a dozen bottles of medications to the consulting area so the pharmacist could explain them to the woman and bag them for her.  The second woman picked up nearly as many prescriptions. I thought to myself how it’s sad that people have to have so many prescriptions. I feel fortunate that I am not currently taking any prescription drugs. I only take an over-the-counter drug daily to control acid reflux, a couple of supplements, pseudoephedrine and ibuprofen occasionally, and drink super strong, black coffee.
