Sa 12/18/21- Tongue Blood Blister

Sa 12/18/21
9am. 1110am (a pinch). 815pm. 

Up 645am: Overcast and raw with temps to upper 30's. Another day that I didn't leave the house. 

Watching Ari Shaffir on Whiskey Ginger on YouTube.

Watched 'A RAINY DAY IN NEW YORK' (Amazon Prime). Two rich college students travel to NYC. He wants a romantic weekend with just the two of them, but she interviews a world famous director, helps a cinematographer with his lovelife, and almost sleeps with a legitimate movie star. Lots of pithy and wry dialogue and I liked it;  with Timothee Chalamet, Elle Fanning, Liev Schreiber, Selena Gomez, Jude Law, and Rebecca Hall. Directed by Woody Allen. "I was 'Miss Amiability' in Scottsdale, but that's no big deal". "They say when drinking you should never mix grain and grape together, but I think they go really good". 

Watched an episode of 'CAPTIVE' (Netflix)- "...history's most complex, high-stakes hostage negotiations as kidnapping victims recount their terrifying ordeals." This installment concerned two British aid workers in Chechnya.  The British couple was kidnapped and held for over a year. The British government cannot pay ransom, so a Russian oligarch most likely arranged their release.

1240pm: PC is 'Off' and will walk the treadmill.   

 1250pm: 5 MILES AT 3.6 PACE AND 0.50 SLANT and finished BLAIRE WHITE on J.R.E. and began TOM SEGURA on WHISKEY GINGER. 

Finished 'THE BLUE AFTERNOON' and began 'ILLEGAL' (Kindle).

***After eating a bowl of flakes and peanuts I noticed a large blood blister on my tongue.  The internet says it probably was caused by a sharp flake that caused the problem...I hope. The blister apparently popped after I ate and no more problems...I hope.

420pm: 2 MILES AT 3.6 PACE AND 0.50 SLANT and began BEEPLE on J.R.E.

***60 watt Halogen bulb went out in the bathroom.  Replacement bulb flashed, then dead.

540pm: In the tub with 'ILLEGAL' and listening to FOREST SWORDS.

Watched 'CATCH- 22' (Amazon Prime). I was amazed by how many stars of the eighties were involved in this production; with Alan Arkin, Martin Balsam, Richard Benjamin, Art Garfunkel, Buck Henry, Bob Newhart, Anthony Perkins, Paula Prentiss, Martin Sheen, Jon Voight, Orson Welles,  Bob Balaban, and Charles Grodin.  Directed by Mike Nichols on the novel by Joseph Heller, and screenplay by Buck Henry. 

Begin at 58"

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...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...
