Su 10/17/21- Pot Shop: 815am.

 Su 10/17/21

1020am. 305pm. 930pm. 

Up 745am: Bright and sunny with temps to 70.

***I lost the 'date/day' on this idiotic Casio, but I got it back and I still don't know how.

Got the money together ($163) for the pot shop and on the road to the store at 9am. The total was $150 even for 2 eighths. Out in front of Ascend there were more homeless than patrons and the security force outnumbered us all.

Watched 'SEW THE WINTER TO MY SKIN' (Crackle). Based on the story of John Kepe who was a black man in rural South Africa during the 1950's who robbed livestock from Afrikaner's farms and shared his plunder with the black poor. It's essentially a 'silent' film although there is dialogue, great pains are made to tell the story visually. The film was directed by Jahmil X.T. Qubeka and his love of jazz and indigenous music is quite evident. This format is a bit restrictive, but if you apply the effort, the reward is worth it. It was selected as the South African entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st Academy Awards, but was ultimately not nominated. 

I watched a couple of YouTube videos about the film.

2pm: PC is 'Off' and I'll read for a while and then do the Weekly Cleaning. Then to Planet Fitness for the workout. 

315pm: Planet Fitness. 45" Treadmill. 45" Cross.  30" Bike.  30" Treadmill. 30"Cross. Part of episode # of 'DOGS OF BERLIN ' (NETFLIX). I wasn't interested. Then an episode of 'DETECTIVES : My Killer Case ' (Amazon Prime). In southeast England two half brothers scheme to torture and decapitate another brother. Then, '2 Bears, 1 Cave', and I began a 'Skeptic Tank ' with ARI and JOEY DIAZ from 2012.

715pm: In the tub with KELLERMAN and listening to THE EELS, 'The Beautiful Old'- various artists,  JUICY J,  and various podcasts.

Began 'ONE OF US' (Netflix). A deep dive into the lives of a few people who tried to separate from the Hasidic community of Brooklyn, NY. Courts rule that the children be treated exactly as they were during the marriage. So if they were exposed to eight hours a day of religious indoctrination, then this should continue. People who try to leave the community are told that you can never leave. You will either end up in jail, hooked on drugs, or come crawling back.

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...

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).
