Mo 7/25/22- Mowed the lawn

Mo 7/25/22- Mowed the lawn 

735am (bong). 9am (1-hit). 1150am (bong). 435pm (1- hit). 650pm (bong). 

Up 515am: Cloudy but much cooler with temps only to the upper 70's.

***While trying to coil the hose it sprung a leak and I noticed that the hose attached to the spigot is far too tight. The leak can be taped but I'd really like to get the fucking hose off the side of the house during the winter.

9am: MR. SANDLESS van arrives at 'abandoned' house. 

***I had planned to call a locksmith but before I started the movie I tightened the screws on the locks and now everything works perfectly. I am still going to buy new deadbolts for both doors. I need a new toilet seat as well, so a drive down to Menards is in the near future.

Watched 'THE GRAY MAN' (Netflix). Standard 'Secret Agent Man' Nonsense. Rogue CIA 'Agent-In-Charge' decides that it is more advantageous to run the agency without moral scruples. One 'super agent' fights back. Corny, to be sure, but lots of 'boom-boom' and terse, pithy dialogue; with Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Billy Bob Thornton, and Alfre Woodard.  

***Just as I came upstairs from hitting the bong, they came to bury the cable.  One of the guys was surprised that the old line looked so 'new'. I gave him the stony reasons why.

12pm: Parkview, Wash. Pk. northside, Walnut, Leland, Lincoln, Outer Park, Wiggins, Wash. Pk., up the hill, Parkview, Kenyon, and down to 940...'The Inner Mounting Flame'- BILLY COBHAM/ ANDREW SCJULZ on J.R.E...ONE HOUR AND 50 MINUTES. 

Finished 'ANY PLACE I HANG MY HAT' by SUSAN ISAACS and began 'THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN ARM' by NELSON ALGREN. 

320pm: Mowed the lawn 

440pm:  In the tub with NELSON ALGREN and listening to SONNY STITT; THE MONTY ALEXANDER TRIO with MILT JACKSON.

Began '16 YEARS OF ALCOHOL' (Kanopy). 

***Getting some 'buffering' issues so I'll watch this first thing tomorrow morning and tonight continue with another episode of 'CHLOE' (Amazon Prime). Two hours remain and it's really getting mysterious. The story is very convoluted and I'm about 80% following the various clues and subtexts. I wonder if this is based on a novel?

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...
