Fr 10/29/21 

950am. 1250pm (a pinch). 905pm. 

Up 8am: Showers all day with temps to mid 50's. According to my rain gauge we got over an inch of rain yesterday.

Watched 'SIDEWAYS' (Amazon Prime). Two guys spend a 'bachelor's Week' in California's wine country and it doesn't go as planned. It's hilarious and touching and I'm glad I caught it before it leaves Amazon Prime; with Paul Giamatti, Thomas Haden Church, Virginia Madsen and Sandra Oh. Directed by Alexander Payne-  won 1 Oscar, 122 wins & 91 nominations total. Surprised to learn that Alexander Payne produced a Japanese remake of the film in 2009. 

Watched the last hour of 'APOCALYPSE NOW' (Netflix)...."The Horror, The Horror"...

220pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing for the treadmill. 

 240pm: 5 MILES AT 3.6 PACE AND 0.50 SLANT... Watched an episode of 'DRUG LORDS'- A young man from a wealthy family corners the Amsterdam hash market and I finished ARI SHAFFIR with ANTHONY DEVITO- "My dad was a mafia hitman".

Reading on the couch and learning how to make a playlist on Amazon Prime. 

530pm: 2 MILES ON THE TREADMILL AT 3.6 PACE AND O.50 SLANT and started a JOEY DIAZ - 'JOEY'S JOINT '.

640pm: In the tub with VIDAL and listening to the new Jazz Playlist, I ordered Xmas gifts for the nephews:  Amazon.

Watched another Alexander Payne directed film: 'CITIZEN RUTH' (Pluto TV)..." and then we stopped in Virginia to see The Tomb of The Unborn Baby."  I haven't laughed this hard since I saw Payne's film 'SIDEWAYS' this morning. I've got to watch 'ABOUT SCHMIDT' on Hoopla or  Kanopy;  with Laura Dern, Swoosie Kurtz, Mary Kay Place, Kurtwood Smith, Kelly Preston, Kathleen, Noone, Tippi Hedren, and Burt Reynolds.

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). Three high school age (?) girls take a summer holida...
