Sa 12/1/18

Up 7am; periods of rain all day, but mostly partly sunny, until late afternoon. Tornadoes in the area, but they hit mostly west and north. When I came home from Planet Fitness about 6pm parts of Chatham Rd. were flooded in the low spots. Temps almost to 550's all day.

Wrote up 'LET IT BLEED'- Ian Rankin for the blog.

Watched Netflix disc, 'THE BIG SICK'. A strange and beautiful love story, and apparently based on truth. A Pakistani stand up comedian falls in love with an American girl and his family is aghast. The couple  breakup because the girl can't accept the fact that if they stay together his family will renounce him. The girl falls deathly ill and the guy finds that he can't live without her, and when she comes out of the coma, they reaffirm their love.

*****Around 830am I noticed that Buddy started acting just like he did when he had the urinary infection. The big tip-off was when I spotted him squatting in the sink. I called Brewer and they said that I could come by and pick up another does of the antibiotics. I did and was back watching the film by 930am.

After 'THE BIG SICK' I watched another episode of 'DAMNATION'.

Reading by 1245pm. Will hit the Wabash PO and Planet Fitness later.
215pm to Planet Fitness. 45" Walk (THIRTEEN). 45" Recumbent Bike (read 'THE CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES/ Dinosaur Jr.). 45" Cross (THIRTEEN). 45" Bike (THIRTEEN- 2 episodes today/ read). 30" Cross (THE GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE).

Home to soak and read more of James Frey, 'A MILLION LITTLE PIECES' and listen to a Live Dead show from Chris's tapes.

Watched 'BOB AND THE MONSTER' (Amazon Prime). Bob Forrest  was the drug addled alcoholic lead singer of the LA punk rock band, THELONIOUS MONSTER who went on to become a drug and alcohol counselor ' to the stars'. Then I watched an interview with him on YouTube.

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).
