Mo 1/23/23- Day 3

 Mo 1/23/23- Day 3

750am (2-B). 250pm (2-B). 

Up 520am: Partly sunny, breezy with temps to the upper 30's.

I sent an email to Janny about the time of tomorrow's procedure and a reminder that only one person is allowed in the waiting room. 

Watched 'KNOCKED UP' (Amazon Prime). The movie is hysterical, but it's absurd to portray a random 'hook-up' between two strangers that would result in them becoming caring parents. And, the film makes a point that Seth Rogan's character only has $900 to his name, yet the characters are 'living large' in one of the most expensive cities on Earth. 'KNOCKED UP' is a storybook romance conceived on mushrooms...and maybe that's the point; with Seth Rogen, Katherine Heigl, Paul Rudd, Leslie Mann (wife of Judd Apatow), Jason Segel, Jay Baruchel, and Jonah Hill. Directed by Judd Apatow.  8 wins & 26 nominations; '85 Metascore'.

Janny wrote me an email that she'll be here tomorrow at 845am and I wrote a short answer with the phrase 'sparkling lower intestine'. 

1110am: PC is 'Off' and the plan is to mix the laxative and then see if I can do some miles on the treadmill. At the very least I'll be able to see if 'a quarter turn' solved the problem of the slipping belt.  

1130am: FIVE MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT;  began ANDREW SANTINO on TOM PAPA; more of HENRY ROLLINS on J.R.E .

***No Belt Slippage!!

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps

120pm: I called Body Quest to make sure that the tuneup is more than just tightening the belt. It is quite a bit more involved so I kept the appointment for Friday morning. 

Reading 'MIRACLE CURE'

145pm: I got a call from Springfield Clinic reminding me that I need to be at the clinic by 915am. 

450pm:  TWO MILES AT 4.0 PACE AND ZERO SLANT;  began JOEY DIAZ on J.R.E. and still no belt slippage.

***At 530pm I drank the first serving of the laxative. I was expecting more of a lime flavor, but it just tastes mildly salty. 

630pm: I began the fourth cup and it looks like one half a cup will finish tonight's dosage. I'm feeling rumblings in my guts, but no toilet action.

I finished half the jug at 645pm and still waiting. 

Very pronounced stomach grumbling but I'm not really hungry. 

720pm: It feels like pissing out of your asshole. The liquid was pretty brown and after the entire jug is finished tomorrow morning it should be clear. I'm drinking green tea after I finished the laxative and by 8pm I've shit twice and an internet site says 10- 15 times is optimal. 

Lots of anxiety that it's not working properly and I will not be 'clear. But I have scrupulously followed the instructions. 

920pm: Only six watery shits and I think I'm done for tonight. It's somewhat clearer, but still predominantly brown. I took a shower and in bed reading by 950pm.

I had to open a new gel-pen for Buddy. For the last couple of days he's been unusually upbeat and active. 

***Lost all color on the phone and I got it back. Something to do with 'Sleep Mode. Bad juju. Not tonight!

Got up one time about 11pm to shit. A restless night.

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...
