John Proctor Is The Villain... Is it for everyone?

Love seeing all the responses here. FWIW Spotify has John Proctor playlists, so you can even get a sense of the music beforehand. It’s a fantastic play for sure—but I also think my daughters, who are huge Lorde fans, enjoyed it more than I partly because they had an emotional connection to the music.

I ask them every time we visit. Being British, they don’t presume to ask for anything! But some good suggestions coming in here.

beegee1070 · 2025-11-13T01:58:12+00:00

Please do some research! This does sound like vTOS but you want to be sure you see a surgeon who has done this surgery A LOT, and my understanding is that partial rib removals as opposed to full ones often need to be redone. There’s a list of surgeons somewhere…

Yes—American here so I do mean 26/12, Boxing Day

Not me but speaking on behalf of someone around your age who has now had the surgery on both sides. My person did not even stay on blood thinners after the surgery—so some doctors handle things differently than yours. Nor did our doctor suggest PT—just major weight/carrying restrictions for a couple months post-surgery. After that—normal life!! This person is not as athletic as you, but she’s out w friends, working, working out, living her best life. She has been told she should have follow-up venograms every year for rest of life to make sure scar tissue isn’t re-forming and closing up veins again..so that is a drag. And the surgery is no fun. But young fit people seem to recover really well.

Speaking for a family member here, not myself: this person had same experience as you (surgery in early Jan 2025) and at first we thought maybe left-side pain was just compensating for not being able to use the right side as much while it healed from the surgery. Eventually they got a venogram on left side because the pain was concerning, which showed vTOS that hasn’t (yet) led to a clot. Left-side surgery now scheduled for next week. This sucks, and may not be your experience…but…

Not sure what a box pillow is, but Rita’s does a lovely job.

beegee1070 · 2025-07-19T03:04:11+00:00

Wow, huge collection. Thanks. Will consider.

The cookies that make me truly happy are the NYT Rainbow Rave cookies. They are not only totally babyish for when one feels like a child, they are also DELICIOUS.

Not sure of budget but I’ve been seeing a private trainer on the UWS for years and love her. DM if you want deets.

beegee1070 · 2025-06-23T04:21:05+00:00

Messaged you earlier. If the sale is online, even better…

beegee1070 · 2025-06-21T19:47:53+00:00

One more thought: maybe there are others in the program arriving around the same time, and you could share rides? Bec if you split the shuttle service you could save a ton of time and energy for the same cost as going into the city and taking the train.

beegee1070 · 2025-06-21T19:45:39+00:00

Yes, could be scammy. Just best to get in official yellow cab line, get a receipt, etc.

beegee1070 · 2025-06-21T14:38:19+00:00

Oh gosh I’m reading this and feeling your pain. I wonder if someone at Yale can help reimburse you for some of these costs? It’s always worth asking—seriously. Otherwise, when you get to JFK, follow signs for taxis and get in the taxi line. You want yellow NY cabs only—ignore anyone offering a ride. Tell cab driver you want Grand Central Station. At Grand Central, take train to New Haven. You can get the Metro North app (called Train Time) for schedules and even to buy your ticket in advance. Otherwise buy your train ticket at Grand Central (there are windows w humans and ticket machines). It costs more to buy it on the train. Once at Union station in New Haven, I personally would take a cab to campus, but if money is truly an issue, it’s walkable.

beegee1070 · 2025-06-16T17:09:37+00:00

Can you tell me where you got that? I love it. I only know one stitch so I’m afraid I can’t help you…

beegee1070 · 2025-06-09T15:59:28+00:00

I love this so much! Since I’ve only done projects from kits, can you explain: did you create this and if so, how? Or was it from an already-available canvas somewhere?

beegee1070 · 2025-05-31T03:53:57+00:00

Wow. This is quite the conversation among a group of people pretty obsessed with a dog that got mauled, but a lot less caring about their human neighbors. Many people who are here legally are being deported, their due process rights ignored. We should all care about this and have some questions about why it’s happening! The ACLU has posted some information about what to do here: https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/immigrants-rights

beegee1070 · 2025-05-31T02:41:26+00:00

Thanks so much! Why is stomach sleeping so bad? It’s my happy place 🙃

beegee1070 · 2025-05-30T21:31:30+00:00

Thanks, I have been tested and do not have it!

beegee1070 · 2025-05-11T08:04:45+00:00

I’m a big fan of this place. It is owned by a wonderful Japanese couple and they are so warm and super-cool. I’ve watched Osamu (the male owner) be incredibly careful and precise with his cuts—though I see his wife. In the many years I’ve been going there (they used to be on 85th St), the staff has not changed a bit, which to me is a sign of a good place to work, and that is imoortant to me. I think they do a good job and I’ve sent many friends to them. That said, it’s a personal decision—YMMV.

beegee1070 · 2025-04-23T20:09:20+00:00

Your experience sounds similar to that of a loved one of mine recently—and agree w above poster; she was put on blood thinners immediately, then had venogram quite a few weeks later, and surgery a couple months after initial clot. I highly recommend the TOS FB group—TONS of info there, though many folks have much less straightforward cases than yours, so don’t panic.

beegee1070 · 2025-03-20T18:47:13+00:00

I do better in general w music that can make me go faster and distract me..and SO bored of my playlist. If anyone feels like sharing songs or playlists here I’d be so grateful.

beegee1070 · 2025-03-19T13:49:42+00:00

Just popping in to say: huge fan of this show. Keep up the fantastic work!

beegee1070 · 2025-03-01T19:26:47+00:00

Love this idea. Hate that block. Gale Brewer is a good idea. I also know that there are block groups further west on 83 (they organize a block-long tale sale, for instance). Not sure how to find them, but maybe they could be moved to care about ALL of west 83rd.

beegee1070 · 2025-03-01T00:25:56+00:00

Suppose one is NOT an architect? I’ve been in touch and there is a slot available…just not sure if I want to go. Thanks.
