Tu 11/21/17- Upped from 6 Mbps to 12 Mbps

Tu 11/21/17

Up 545am; Cloudy, breezy, 50's. Watched, ALLIED. Is she a spy, or isn't she a spy? Well-done! More than a little like Hitchcock,

945am- reading on the couch, DROWNING RUTH. 1030-11am on the phone with ATT to get the speed upped. Went from 6 Mbps to 12 Mbps (download). From $42 to $57. Actually the price is the same for 10 Mbps as 12 Mbps, but according to Speed Test I'm about in the middle of that range. The clerk said that it wouldn't take effect until 2pm, but when I went into the study and used the Chromebook I was already up to speed. Love it!

I called Black Moon and left word that I wanted to start work on the Borneo tattoo; no return call. And, I called ATT (different department) and had them send out a hard copy of the changes in my new insurance for 2018.

More reading then to Planet Fitness by 145pm. 30" Walk. 3.5/0. Eased back since I did 45" yesterday, and I'm going to be running outside on Thanksgiving. Planet Fitness closes at noon!!! 45" Recumbent Bike (DROWNING RUTH). 45" Cross. 30" Recumbent Bike (read). 30" Cross. Legs/Chest.

Home to finish DROWNING RUTH and began the James Patterson that Janny loaned me in an hour soak.

Streaming LONG TIME RUNNING; a bio pic about The Tragically Hip, a popular Canadian band's last tour- lead dying of brain cancer. About 45" into the film I shut it off and came upstairs to read the James Patterson, CROSS JUSTICE, while I ate.

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...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...
