Fr 8/18/23

705am (2-B). 830am (1-B). 1205pm (2-B). 540pm (2-B). 755pm (2-B). 

Up 545am: A very cool morning with temps only in the mid 50's and later plenty of sun with a high of about 80. However temps are to reach 100 by early next week.

Watched Netflix disc 'NINE DAYS'. A sensitive 'man/angel' (?) is tasked with choosing who is ready to be 'reborn' for another shot at life on earth. He allows five candidates nine days to prove that they are up to the task. Very much an art film, but the ethical dilemmas presented are engaging. I had seen this one before and well worth a second viewing.

More of 'PAINKILLER' (Netflix). I shut it down 21 minutes into episode #3. The campy tone signifies that the material is not to be taken too seriously, but I think the depiction of addiction is completely fanciful. 

1110am: PC is 'Off' and preparing for a walk to the Monroe PO to mail the disc. 

Weights: 3 sets/ 12 reps 

1215pm- 215pm: To Monroe PO & Fairhills to ask about inhaler and pick up candles/  deodorant/  incense at Fairhills; out & back Edwards...LED ZEPPELIN;  HUMBLE PIE;  began TIM DILLON on J.R.E. 

Reading 'THE KILLER ANGELS'.

450pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished NATE BARGATZE on WE MIGHT BE DRUNK  

545pm:  In the tub to begin 'NO WITNESSES' by RIDLEY PEARSON and listening to FREE- 'Molten Gold'; MOUNTAIN- Leslie West; TASTE- 1st.

Began a THEO VON with no guest; just his monologue and it's hysterical, 'Flea Market'. 

More 'PAINKILLER' (Netflix). I shut it down 5 minutes into episode #5. After almost four hours of the series I finally recognized the lead actress who plays the federal bureaucrat who first developed the case against Purdue. Her name is Uzo Aduba and she played the crazy lady on 'ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK' and she is terrific.

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...
