Tu 4/12/22- COVID BOOSTER at Schnucks

 Tu 4/12/22- COVID BOOSTER; SCHNUCKS 

840am. 10am (1 hit/1 hitter). 1210pm. 710pm. 

Up 630am: Partly sunny and breezy with temps to low 70's. I raked the gum balls...again; 7am-730am. 

Around 6am I began trying to schedule a Covid booster shot, but it was too confusing/annoying. Walgreens gave me a phone number only to order a 'med alert' bracelet and I'm not even sure how to read the Covid Vaccination Card to schedule an appointment with Memorial Medical.

Watched 'YAKSHA: RUTHLESS OPERATIONS' (Netflix). The premise is that Northeastern Asia reigns supreme in international influence and power and an investigator from Seoul is sent to observe and appraise a South Korean spy group (their cover is a travel agency) in Shenyang, China. He becomes involved in a series of bloody shenanigans and it turns out that the Japanese intelligence agency was behind all of the bad stuff. Basically,  the Japanese were trying to end any chance of reconciliation between North and South Korea because a united Korea would be a threat to Japan's power in the area. The cartoonish level of violence and killings by all parties make the story hard to believe and a drama about Japan stopping rapprochement between North and South Korea would have made a better film.  

The plan is to hit Esporta Fitness, then stop at the pharmacy at Schnucks about the Covid card. I tried to get an estimate for the prairie grass pruning, but it became confusing/annoying. 

1145am: PC is 'Off' and preparing to leave.

1230pm: 45" Cross.  45" Treadmill.  30" Bike. 30" Treadmill.  30" Cross and watched the last two episodes of 'BETTER CALL SAUL' (NETFLIX) and finished '800 METERS' (NETFLIX).

***After Esporta I went to Schnucks and got the Moderna booster. In and out in 10 minutes. 

450pm: In the tub with 'SNOW CRASH' and listening to EDGAR WINTER'S WHITE TRASH; CLIMAX BLUES BAND.

Watched 'MARGIN CALL' (Netflix). The day that an investment firm learns that the hazardous practice of blending solid mortgages with worthless ones and selling them as 'golden' has come to an abrupt end. A somewhat fictional account of the first firm to 'sell out' at the very beginning of  the financial crisis of 2008;  with Zachary Quinto, Stanley Tucci, Kevin Spacey, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Irons, Mary McDonnell, and Demi Moore.

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...
