Tu 8/9/22

 Tu 8/9/22

705am (B). 1055am (B). 1240pm (2- gr/wh)...NEW 1/8th! 220pm (2- gr/wh). 345pm (1- hit). 430pm (1- hit). 755pm (2- B). 

Up 515am: Rain ended about 6am and then cloudy with temps only to upper 70's. It's still very humid, but the lack of sizzle is a welcome relief.

I began the German series 'HOW TO SELL DRUGS ONLINE (FAST)' (Netflix). Based on the true story of a couple of German teens who got rich selling Ecstasy and MDMA on the internet. It's a visually compelling production and the show is based on the drug dealing career of Maximilian Schmidt, the real German Ecstasy kingpin. The series ran for 3 seasons and there might be another. A tidbit of wisdom by one of the characters on the show:

***10am: I called Tom's Plumbing and gave the card info for the $380.20 bill. 

1030am: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk on the treadmill. The plan is to do the five miles and then hit Family Dollar for a bunch of stuff. Maybe go downtown for another jar of Durban Zkittlez.

1055am:  THREE MILES AT 3.8 PACE (forgot to turn it up) and TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT and watched more of 'D.B. COOPER' (Netflix) and more of a J.R.E. 

Weights/ 15 reps

Reading 'SAMARITAN' by Richard Price

225pm: Family Dollar;  bowl, runner, cutting board but no dish rack & then a car wash. Back by 315pm. 

345pm:  TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT and began a TUESDAYS WITH STORIES'.

435pm:  In the tub with 'SAMARITAN' and listening to LED ZEPPELIN- 'Houses Of The Holy'. 

Watched 'SEVEN STAGES TO ACHIEVE ETERNAL BLISS' (Amazon Prime). A wacky satire about a couple from the Midwest who move to an apartment in Los Angeles. They soon learn that members of a cult need their bathroom to commit suicide to reunite with their departed leader. More odd than funny, and it pretty much missed the mark; with Taika Waititi, Rhea Seehorn (BETTER CALL SAUL), Kate Micucci, Matt Jones, Sam Huntington, Dan Harmon, and Brian Posehn.  

8pm: Going to shut down a little early and read for a bit

Rhythm Durban Zkittlez at Ascend: $55

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...
