 Th 3/24/22

805am. 1025am (2 hits/1 hitter). 725pm.  

Up 6am: Rain through early this afternoon with temps to the low 40's.

Watched 'FIREWORKS WEDNESDAY' on Kanopy. A 'kitchen-sink dramedy' about a young Iranian female house cleaner who goes to work in an apartment and becomes involved in a secret affair between her new boss and a neighbor lady. Crazy, odd, and kind of endearing. 7 wins & 8 nominations and a 'Metascore' of '84'.

***No buffering issues on Kanopy during 'FIREWORKS WEDNESDAY'.

Watched 'THE WATERMELON WOMAN' on Kanopy. A beginning black lesbian filmmaker begins a project to discover the life story of, Fae Richards, a black film actress from the 30's. The search for facts in the life of the actress become a backdrop for the relationship drama in the filmmaker's life. An offbeat yet engaging example of 'New Queer Cinema'. After the film I learned that the actress, Fae Richards did not exist but was real only in the imagination of the director, Cheryl Dunye.  

1220pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk on the treadmill.

 1230pm:  FIVE MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND 1.50 SLANT and began MIKE BAKER on J.R.E.

Reading 'GEORGIANA' 

440pm: TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND 1.50 SLANT and more of ANDREW SANTINO on SKEPTIC TANK. 

525pm: In the tub with 'GEORGIANA' and listening to DELANEY & BONNIE; FUNKADELIC. 

Watched 'CRAZY ON THE OUTSIDE' (Amazon Prime). A terrible movie with a superior cast. A man is released from prison and has trouble adjusting to 'life on the outside'. His hot ex-girlfriend wants him back, his criminal pal wants to give him stacks of cash and a new Corvette, his parole officer falls madly in love with him, and none of this is the slightest bit believable unless you are under seven years old; with Tim Allen Sigourney Weaver, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Julie Bowen, and Kelsey Grammer.

***All of the entries that I entered last night on the downstairs PC did not show up on the draft. Why?

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...
