 Su 8/20/23

730pm (2-B). 830am (1-SB). 1145am (2-B). 550pm (2-B). 820pm (2-B). 

Weekly Cleaning/ Mop/ Water

Up 530am: Mostly sunny with temps to the mid 90's. An 'Excessive Heat Warning' is in effect from 1pm this afternoon until 10 pm on Thursday.

Watched '10 DAYS OF A BAD MAN' (Netflix). The film has one of the most convoluted plot lines ever and even for a Detective/ Thriller it is confusing. Maybe it's meant to be ironic because the detective in the film admits that he doesn't like most fictional mysteries because they are not realistic. In real life victims are invariably murdered by people that they know and in bad fiction the perpetrator is usually a mysterious stranger that only the author would know. And this film is so impenetrable that you almost need the screenplay to properly understand who did what in the film. I still liked it because it works if you 'suspend disbelief' and the locations were unusual. Filmed in Istanbul, Turkey. 

Finished 'PAINKILLER' (Netflix). There was only fifteen minutes remaining and I should have finished it last night.  

1115am: PC is 'Off' and time to shut the windows and turn on the AC. It might be closed up for the next several days. I don't know if it will be a walk outside or an indoor session on the treadmill. 

1150am:  FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished ROSEBUD BAKER on 'WE MIGHT BE DRUNK'; began an 'ARE YOU GARBAGE?'.

***Weights: Stopped dumbbell presses on the floor because it's affecting my right shoulder.  I did four sets/ 10 reps with the barbells. I added a couple of two and a half pound weights [5 lbs total] to barbells. 

Reading 'NO WITNESSES' downstairs & listening to Sunday Baroque on the Altec speaker. Later upstairs for more NO WITNESSES. 

5pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; finished 'ARE YOU GARBAGE? '.

555pm: In the tub with 'NO WITNESSES' and listening to RORY GALLAGHER Playlist; STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN Playlist;ROLLING STONES- 'Black & Blue; CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE Playlist. 

Began MARK NORMAND on WHITNEY CUMMINGS...Normand talks of the time when his opener scored Fentanyl for him instead of Ambien. Mark wanted something to go to sleep and the guy got 'something called' Ambien. 

Began 'RED ROSE' (Netflix).  I shut it down 8 minutes into episode #2. This one is very different- spooky and weird and shot in Bolton,  a town just northwest of Manchester, England. 


***Call about inhaler and insurance

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...

We 4/23/25- Gummy 645am {I took 1/4 of a 200 mg of 'DIET SMOKE' gummy: 50 mg total}. 650am (1-LB: Cookie Bread). 910am (1/2-LB: Cookie Bread).  1220pm (1-LB: Panama Punch). 535pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker). 815pm (1-LB: Permanent Marker).  Up 545am: A mix of suny & clouds with temps to about 80. 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...
