 Fr 8/11/23- Buddy Sick

7am (2-B).  1005am (1-SB). 110pm (2-B). 605pm (2-B). 820pm (2-B). 

Up 510am: A mix of sun & clouds and temps to upper 80's. Heavy storm around 910am and lasted for about 30 minutes. The sky turned pitch black, but only very hard & soaking rain and no straight line winds- just under an inch and a quarter of rain according to the rain gauge.

I decided to watch 'THE EXPENDABLES' (Netflix) before I realized that I had a disc to view. 

Watched Netflix disc 'CRIMES OF THE FUTURE'. In a gloomy and dystopian future the human body has been made malleable by evolution or genetic alteration and elective surgery has become the new sex. According to Cronenberg in the bonus features he says the film is "about the crimes committed by the human body against itself...". I had seen this before but remembered only the first scene where the young boy is eating a plastic wastebasket. Well worth a second viewing. Strange and hauntingly beautiful and unmistakably a film by David Cronenberg; with Viggo Mortensen, Lea Seydoux, and Kristen Stewart.

1110am-1120am:

Ford hybrid/ Red-Burgundy

taking pictures of the roof

PARKWAY MOTORS

***Black/slender/tall

Shorts/ brown watch cap/ gold earrings

Ladder in front taking pictures of the roof, then around the backyard- more pictures.

More 'SPOTLESS' (Netflix). Finished episode #9 and only one more to go. I'm gonna miss this one and will save the final episode for tomorrow morning and start another foreign series tonight. 

1215pm: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk on the treadmill. I'll leave the Netflix disc on the box and if the mailman doesn't get it, so be it (he got it). 

***1230am: Futon arrived at the front door & downstairs by 1250pm. I used a rope wrapped at the end of the box to guide while sliding it to the bottom of the stairs 

Oiled the treadmill 

120pm:  FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished MARK NORMAND; began THEO VON on '2 BEARS.

Weights: 3 sets dumbbells/ 10 reps; 3 sets barbells/ 10 reps.

345pm: Futon unpacked and cardboard cut and will require 2 Wednesday pickups. Couch is everything I imagined & looks sharp. 

Reading 'THE BARON' 

505pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished THEO VON on '2 Bears'; began BILL BURR on THEO VON. 

610pm: In the tub and skimmed to the end of 'THE BARON' and began 'THE ORACLE' by Edwin O'Connor (his first novel and first published in 1951) and listening to JEFF BECK- 'Beck-ola'/ 'Truth' shuffle. 

More of 'BILL BURR on THEO VON.

Began 'WOMEN AT WAR' (Netflix).  Finished episode #1 and this looks like a promising series.  

When I came upstairs I noticed a puddle of hairballs/vomit on the hall runner.

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...
