 Mo 10/30/23

740am (2-B). 8am (1-SB). 1030am (1-B). 1pm (2-B). 545pm (2-B). 815pm (2-B). 

Up 610am: Cold, breezy, & sunny with highs in the upper 30's. Freeze Warning in effect until 8am.

***Buddy threw up on the bathroom floor and it stained the tiles. I've got to find a way to remove this discoloration. 

***Washed all of my sweaters. If they shrink they might fit better {they didn't shrink enough}.

Watched 'CYMBELINE' (Amazon Prime). The film is a Shakespeare movie adaptation and subtitles are essential. The film presents a contemporary motorcycle  gang or 'Kingdom' in opposition to the police or 'Romans'. A knight bets another chevalier that he can seduce his lover, but he employs duplicity to win the bet. This deceptive act brings about war and later resolution between the Romans and the Kingdoms. The difficulty in watching the film was not commensurate with the payoff; with {top-heavy with acting talent} Ethan Hawke, Ed Harris, Milla Jovovich, John Leguizamo, Penn Badgley, Dakota Johnson, Anton Yelchin, Kevin Corrigan, and Bill Pullman. Filmed in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn and Blooming Grove, New York. "54" Metascore.

More 'THE MIRE' (Netflix). The series oozed despair and hopelessness and I'm not exactly sure what happened, but in this case, it was worth the effort. I'll watch 'THE MIRE: 97' at a later date.

1225pm: PC is 'Off' and not sure if it's back on the treadmill or a walk in the cold and wind.

1pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; more 'BAND OF BROTHERS- The Pacific' (Netflix); finished PETE HOLMES on WHISKEY GINGER. 

Weights: 3 sets/15 reps. DUMBBELLS. 

Reading 'NADA'

455pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; began JOEY DIAZ with LEE SYATT  

550pm:  In the tub with 'NADA' and listening to BLACK SABBATH- 'Technical Ecstasy'/ Complete Recordings 1970- 1978.

More of JOEY DIAZ with LEE SYATT

Began 'NOTRE DAME' (Netflix). A docudrama about the fire at Notre Dame on April 15, 2019. I shut it down 11 minutes into episode #2.

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...
