 Mo 7/31/23- Power Outage/ Buddy Sick

645am (2-B). 910am (2-B). 525pm (2-B).  750pm (2-B). 

Up 525am: Partly sunny with temps to mid 80's.

As I was working on the PC and trying to select a Morning Movie, at 615am I heard a 'Bang' and the power was 'Off'.  I decided to walk to Washington Park after I left word that the power was off at 940 Westview. 

655am- 840am: Parkview, Wash. Pk southside, Wiggins, Outer Park, Lincoln, Wash. Pk across the panhandle, northside, up the hill, Parkview, Fairway, and up to 940...JOHN MAYALL- 'The Hard Road'; EAGLES OF DEATH METAL; DUNCAN TRUSSELL on J.R.E. 

***Buddy seems normal and this includes his usual voracious appetite. 

No problems with the PC or resetting the clock on the microwave.

Watched 'BIRD BOX BARCELLONA' (Netflix). Otherworldly beings have come to Earth and if you look upon them you are driven to suicide. Those that survive become 'seers' and work with the extraterrestrials to get the remaining humans to open their eyes.  A little hokey, but worth a look. The film is a 'revisit' of an American film that starred Sandra Bullock and John Malkovich. Set and filmed in Barcelona, Spain which is the capital of the Catalonia region; Montjuic Castle.

Watched an 'Ending Explained' YouTube video and I didn't miss much but learned about the original film. 

Watched a fifteen minute episode of 'Getting Coffee with Will Ferrell and Jerry Seinfeld'. Ferrell did an impression of a cat playing with cat toys as his audition for SNL. I found the ninety second bit on YouTube and it was hysterical. 

Wrote Chat

1pm: PC is 'Off' and will read for a while and then hit the treadmill later for maybe an hour.

4pm: FOUR MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished TOM SEGURA on 'Blocks'; began STEVEN SODERBERGH on WHISKEY GINGER. 

NO WEIGHTS

530pm:  In the tub with 'BUTTERFIELD 8' and listening to TEDESCHI TRUCKS BAND- 'Everybody's Talkin''; LITTLE FEAT Live Holland 1976.

Finished STEVEN SODERBERGH on WHISKEY GINGER.

Began 'BELASCOARAN' (Netflix). I shut it down 54 minutes into the first episode.  It's a funny and sardonic tale of a man in the 1970's who leaves the corporate world to become a private detective. Shot to make it look like the 70's in Mexico City, Mexico.

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...
