Mo 3/28/22

830am. 140pm. 715pm.

Up 710am: Partly sunny with temps to mid 40's.

***At 3am I got up to take a leak and I gave Buddy some Friskeys that were left over. I would like to think that he gave me that extra sleep-time in return for the early morning snack.  

Watched 'VIOLETTE' (Kanopy). A beautifully shot biopic of the French author, Violette LeDuc from her days in the black market during WWII to her later years in Provence. She was friends (lovers?) with all of the French Existential titans of the 40's through the 60's; Jean-Paul Sarter, Jean Genet, Albert Camus, and most importantly, Simone de Beauvoir. Emmanuelle Devos plays the lead and is directed by Martin Provost. The costumes, sets, settings, and cinematography were simply out of this world. 

During the film I called for another gel-pen for Buddy. The clerk called back and said that they wanted to recheck Buddy's thyroid so I made an appointment for tomorrow, Tuesday 3/29 at 230pm. I'll pick up the new gel-pen tomorrow. 

I wrote the Chat Wrap; guy across the street mowed his lawn/low white cell count/Buddy's thyroid/Bonnie and daughter at Esporta.

1230pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk downtown; out Governor and back Edwards. 

150pm: Fairway, golf course, Governor, 2nd south to South Grand alley, Wash.Pk center to northside, Parkview, Kenyon, and down to 940....ONE HOUR AND 45" ...Mp3...VAN MORRISON, BOWIE, COSTELLO.

Reading and skimmed to the end of 'GEORGIANA'.

440pm: TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND 1.50 SLANT and finished a talk by MATT TAIBBI on The Media.

 525pm: In the tub to begin 'THE BURGLAR WHO LIKED TO QUOTE KIPLING' and listening to BLACK CAT BONES; JUICY LUCY; THE GROUNDHOGS. 

Watched 2 more episodes of 'BRIDGERTON' (Netflix).

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).
