 Sa 10/10/20

Up 715am: partly sunny with temps to mid 80's.

***10am: Gave in to the inner demons. I decided to pay fifty bucks for another bottle of drops...Just to be safe.

Watched 'A FAMILY AFFAIR' (Netflix). A 30 year old film photographer shoots a documentary about his elusive grandmother. Several times she has tried to have someone document her life, yet she will drop the project. She recognizes her family only when it suits her and when she is crossed, she just flees to her South African estate. We learn that she abandoned her two young sons and left them in an orphanage, and then returned two years later to become a family again. A profile of a very manipulative, neurotic, and psychologically destructive woman. Interesting and disturbing. 

Noon: Walked to County Market for eye drops.  About 30" total and they didn't have the prescription, then she found it.  They also do not have the Tamsulosin script. I don't want to deal with these people, and I'll set up an account with Walgreens. 

***I asked the mailman if there was a change in how they handle the Netflix discs, but he said he was not aware of any changes. Later he delivered one disc, but not the two that were due. 

Another bowl and watched 'UNA' (Netflix- trying to clear out some of the ancient films in my queue).  A thirteen year old girl was sexually involved with a neighbor who was more than twenty-five years her senior. They were caught and he did four years, but her life has never been the same. Fifteen years later she visits him at his workplace to try to find answers. A disturbing film in that he tries to make the case that he is not a predator because he didn't 'groom' her. He honestly just fell in love with her. Who to believe? Terrific performances by Rooney Mara and Ben Mendelsohn from a play called 'BLACKBIRD' by David Harrower.

310pm: Preparing to take a stab at the weeds in the flower beds. Then a shortened walk to the park. Not even a half hour and it kinda looks it. I'm out until the Fall or Spring cleanup.

4pm...WASHINGTON PARK... OUT south side, Vine, Walnut, back north side and up road, Parkview and down to 940...AN HOUR AND 30 MINS... Mp3... THE LONG RYDERS, ROYAL TRUX. 

In the tub with HOAG and listening to SONIC YOUTH, RIDE, MUDHONEY~ 'Superfuzz'. 

Watched the first episode of 'BAD BOY BILLIONAIRES/ INDIA' (Netflix). I didn't realize that India was a largely Alcohol Free Country. Kingfisher Beer got off to a tough start, but changed into a nation-wide 'Brand'- very similar to America's Donald Trump before he 'politized' his image, yet this Indian billionaire also relied very heavily on his father's wealth to keep him afloat. Kingfisher became Formula One Racing, A National Airline, and many other high-profile businesses. 

Then more 'I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD LEAVE ' (Netflix).
