Fr 6/12/20

Up 730 am: Sunny with temps to upper 80's.

***Noticed some caked blood when I blew my nose and there is a tiny cut on the edge of my left nostril. Maybe this is an indication of a broken nose?

Watched Netflix disc, 'RULES DON'T APPLY'. A rather bland fictional account of an aspiring actress who is picked by Howard Hughes to become a star. The film is kind of a ham-fisted 'love triangle' between Howard, the actress, and the man who was hired as her driver. Warren Beatty stars, directs, and produces; with Lily Collins (daughter of Phil Collins), Alden Ehrenreich, Paul Sorvino, Matthew Broderick, Candice Bergen, and Martin Sheen. The 'star power' was not commensurate with the results...again.

Then watched, 'GINGER AND ROSA' (Hoopla- borrowed yesterday).  Set in London at the start of the Cuban Missile Crisis, two best friends are at odds when Rosa has an affair with Ginger's father. The theme is 'The Sexual Revolution' meets 'The Cold War'- Surprisingly well done; with Christina Hendricks, Alessandro Nivola, Elle Fanning, Alice Englert, Timothy Spall, Oliver Platt, and Annette Bening.

***About 9 am. I got a call from Dr. Ellison's office asking if I would need a followup appointment. I said that I would wait and see how it heals. I also told them of the tetanus shot that I got yesterday.

215 pm: PC is 'Off' and carefully removed the bandage on the bridge of my nose and put on a new one. If it bleeds, I guess I'll have to go back to Koke. No problem whatsoever, the guy did a good sewing job. No bleeding. 

***My blue, yellow, and green ball caps arrived and were on the breezeway steps at the kitchen door.

415 pm... On the walk. Up to Oakmont, to Laurel then south on Chatham. Mailed disc. Chatham to Iles, North on Golf, Pebble/Lynnhaven/down Parkview/940.TWO HOURS AND TEN MINUTES. A silent walk~ no music. 

TUB with POPE PROJECT listened to BOBBY FULLER,  BOBBY BLUE Bland, Bon Iver. 

Began, 'BLOW' (Netflix).

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...
