Fr 10/22/21- Green on Dirksen

Fr 10/22/21
950am. 225pm. 930pm. 

Up 810am: Cloudy, raw with temps only to upper 50's.

***The car started with no problem, but I called Hyundai to have the electrical system checked. They'll get me in at 130pm today.

I began watching the Netflix series 'TO THE LAKE'. Another fine binge-worthy production from Netflix. I'll watch much more of this when I visit Planet Fitness later this afternoon.  

13" into episode #3 I shut it down to head to Green on Dirksen at 1245pm. for the 130pm time slot. 
I arrived at Green about 115pm and the guys did a battery test. The car battery originally retained an 81% charge (there's a tag on the battery) and after the ride to the dealership today was at 67%. Last night at AutoZone it was 24%.. He recommended that I drive the interstate once a week. Last night at AutoZone they said the Elantra battery was $200, but at Green it's $250 and a $50 installation charge. I took Rt 55 to Rt 72 to Rt 4 and home by 145pm.
 And, I got a free car wash.

230pm: To Planet Fitness. 45" Cross. 45" Treadmill. 30" Bike.  30" Treadmill. 30"Cross. To episode #5 of 'AT THE LAKE', and more of CHRIS HANSEN on 'Your Mom's House ', and another '2 Bears, 1 Cave.

630pm: In the tub with UPDIKE and listening to LESTER YOUNG, ERIC DOLPHY,  and various podcasts. 

I began watching ' THANKS FOR SHARING' (Netflix) . I felt in the mood for a romantic comedy... 'APOCALYPSE NOW REDUX' (Netflix- 3h 16m), I first wanted to watch...maybe tomorrow morning... . 
 ' THANKS FOR SHARING' (Netflix)    "Worry is just a meditation on shit"...
135 West 3rd St. NYC. Fun Fact: In Manhattan the numbered streets are east and west and the numbered and named avenues are north and south. 
A strange dramadey about sex addicts with an odd tone. Some of it's very funny and a lot is just sad, yet it's not sexy at all and I guess that's the point; with Mark Ruffalo, Tim Robbins, Gwyneth Paltrow, Josh Gad, Joely Richardson, Patrick Fugit, Carol Kane, and Pink.

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...

Finished 'SIGNS' (Netflix). Clearly the drama hasn't ended, and I hope there will be infinite new seasons. {No such luck. I couldn't find anything about a third season}. 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).
