Su 9/24/17

Last night I watched the first three out of six episodes of THE UNITED STATES OF TARA. Great series, but I can't believe that this is the brainchild of Steven Spielberg. 

Read and finished IN THE COUNTRY OF THE BLIND from 330am-430am; up 5am. When I started this novel, I didn't really like it, but by the end- I couldn't wait to start it all over again. I am interested to see how the rest of the group will rate this one. 

Watched the last three episodes of THE UNITED STATES OF TARA and then I watched an Argentinian film called SHOWROOM. Set in Buenos Aires and a resort town called Le Tigre, 30 miles to the north. A man is broke and to support his wife and daughter he takes a job selling apartments in a city high-rise. He ends up living in the 'showroom' and loses his family- a dark and bleak comedy. It didn't get very good reviews, but I was satisfied. 

I did the weekly cleaning- upstairs and downstairs (I did the laundry and the cat box yesterday) and called Elsie's House around 1230pm. Lannie answered the phone, 'Edith's House'. Talked to her for a while about the oven/microwave situation and when she passed the phone to him- he had to go to the bathroom, so I called back in ten. Just a few minutes and he was gone- a happy, yet demanding pain in the ass. 

I placed the call from downstairs since it was hotter than Hell, and I read for about 30"- WILD THING. Then, biked to the club. PS- to beat the heat I ran outside at 930am. Hardly broke a sweat, comparatively speaking. Green/ Oak/Lynn- 32".
45" Walk. 3.7/0. 45" Cross. Legs/Chest/Biceps. 30" Old Style Cross. 30" Recumbent Bike. Whirlpool/pool. 

Home to read WILD THING for 45".

We 8/15/18

We 8/15/18 Up 820am; overcast, clammy, and threatening. Rain predicted all day and tomorrow- none so far; 915am. (All day and barely a sprinkle- it was happening all around us, but nothing here) Watched  'SUSPECT ZERO' (Amazon Prime) Aaron Eckhart/ Ben Kingsley/ Carrie Anne Moss.  Eckhart plays a disgraced FBI agent who is being fed information by a serial killer. Seems to be Ben Kingsley, but he's not the killer, he's an ex-agent who can do 'remote viewing'. Not bad, but close, however excellent and creative charcoal drawings as the 'hints' to Eckhart's character. Another episode of 'I'M DYING UP HERE', and then another 'GLOW'. 250PM- Drove to FitClub West, then after the workout to the County Market on south sixth for beer and some groceries- and a dependable can opener! (PS. This is a really clever design. '3-in-one design'; church key/ tuna opener/ pop top) 45" The Best Octane. 45" Recumbent Bike (b...

This was the quote at the end of the series: "I am the Lord who frustrates the omens of diviners and makes a mockery of magicians, who turns back the wise and turns their knowledge into folly"...Book of Isaiah. ***Phone had to be restarted because I 'was not connected to a network'.  ***925am: 'Diet Smoke' gummy order arrived on the front porch via FedEx; Watermelon/ Acapulco Gold Watched 'HOW TO HAVE SEX' (Netflix).
