We 6/19/19

We 6/19/19

Up 630am; rain beginning about 9am, and continues from early afternoon through the night. One to two inches and flash floods predicted.... Anxiety about the downstairs area- low 70's.

Watched 'THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO' (Hoopla- they have the whole trilogy to stream; otherwise, only available on disc)  Lisbeth Salander teams up with a disgraced investigator/ reporter to find the whereabouts of a young girl who has been missing for over forty years. A serial killer and his insane son are revealed, but they aren't responsible for the missing girl. She's been living in Australia. I'll watch the next installment of the trilogy with my next Hoopla pick.

Then the first episode of 'SNEAKY PETE'- Season II

1240pm: PC 'Off' and reading 'ELEANOR OLIPHANT IS COMPLETELY FINE' on OVERDRIVE.
240pm in the Elantra to the 'Y'. 45" Walk (Reality TV All Workout). 45" Recumbent Bike. 45" Cross. 30" Walk. 30" Cross.

Home to read more of 'Oliphant' in the living room and then in the tub with the guy from THE NUNS/ RANK & FILE, and more 'Oliphant'.

Super-heavy deluge about 7pm....shooting down from the sky like out of a fire hose- Buddy was freaking. Still no leaks downstairs, but more rain is in the forecast until very early this morning.

'ABDUCTED IN PLAIN SIGHT' (Netflix) Creepy, yet affable guy ingratiates himself into a family and targets a nine year old daughter. He kidnaps her twice. A very weird story.

No water downstairs; relieved and surprised because some of the storms were the heaviest I've seen.

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...

Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy

 Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy  735am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 820am (3 hits-B: Citrus Mac).  1215pm [I took 1/3 of 'VIIA' 100 mg: 33 mg total].(1-LB: Citrus Mac).  240pm (4 hits-B: Diablo's Hearse). 435pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 530pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 815pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 630am: Rain was "in the area", but missed Westview and more sunny & unseasonably warm weather with temps close to 90. {No rain in a long time & it's getting crunchy}  About 730am several 'tree trimming' trucks arrived and parked just down the street. I first thought that they were for the house across the street, but it looks like the action is farther down the road. They disappeared by 10am and I think they were at the house 'with the indoor whirlpool'.  Watched 'UPGRADE' (Netflix).  A very fine 'Dystopian/ SciFi' genre film about a couple in Melbourne ("in a not too distant future") who are in their 'auto...

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...
