Mo 12/14/20- Buddy's Still Upbeat and Hungry
Mo 12/14/20
Up 730am: Partly sunny, breezy with temps to low 30's.
835am: Called Brewer to make an appointment with Dr. Kirk, but the line was busy. 940am: made the appointment for Tues. Dec. 29th at 2pm.
Watched 'AVA' (Netflix). An off-the-rails, Action/Adventure film with a story-line that is far too unbelievable by half. 'Ava' becomes a deadly secret agent/assassin because of a bundle of unresolved family issues. She just had to deal with her lying father, kick alcohol and drugs, survive the Army, and somewhere, somehow she was able to master the deadly skills of the contract killer trade. This kind of thing has been done so much better, so many times before; with Jessica Chastain, John Malkovich, Geena Davis, and Colin Farrell.
***FUN FACT: The film was shot in Boston and one of the exterior shots showed 'The Boston Mandarin Oriental Hotel'- That place rents a single room for $476 a night!
Then I watched the next episode of 'THE CROWN' (Netflix). Told in a kind of 'dual flashback'. Prince Charles is forced to attend a tough Scottish boarding school by his Nazi family and years later he insists that his own son must attend the same school. The boy spent five years in this institution, but when it came time for his own sons to attend, he sent them to Eton. After watching this series, I realized that I knew nothing of the British royal family.

130pm: PC is 'Off' and will read for a bit and then out for the walk.
315pm: Parkview, Country Club, Outer Park, South on Lincoln, through Wash. PK. North side, around the road and up to Parkview, Fairway and up to 940... ONE HOUR AND 45 MINS... 91.9 FM and BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB. Got home just before full dark in a clear sky... beautiful.
Home to read more CONNELLY on the couch.
In the tub with CONNELLY and a new JOHN CREASY novel to begin and listening to PAUL RODGERS and a Jazz Playlist on YouTube.
I began the Netflix series 'ROOM 2806: The Accusation' (Netflix). Episodes #1 and #2...President of the IMF (International Monetary Fund) is charged with rape in a NYC hotel in 2011. He was the eight or ninth most influential man in the world at the time and most likely to have been the next President of France. This will be a most interesting mini-series.
