 Sa 11/18/23

710am (2-B). 820am (1-SB). 1025am (1-B). 1235pm (1-B). 

315pm (2-B). 540pm (2-B). 815pm (2-B). 

Up 540am: A frosty morning and then bright & sunny with temps to mid 50's.

I wrote up 'THE BLACK BOOK' by Ian Rankin and 'MYRA BRECKINRIDGE' by Gore Vidal for the blog.

When I got up I planned to rake the leaves on the front lawn because today is the last day of Westview's pickup week for bags. Maybe I'll hit it later today....maybe.

Watched 'DANGEROUS LIAISONS' (Kanopy). The film is an elegant tale of cruelty and romance among members of the French aristocracy during the 18th century. A femme fatale and a notorious womanizer conspire to ruin the reputations of selected mademoiselles and messieurs; with Glenn Close, John Malkovich, Michelle Pfeiffer, Swoosie Kurtz, Keanu Reeves, and Uma Thurman. Won 3 Oscars; 21 wins & 23 nominations. "74" Metascore. I hadn't seen this one in ages (1988 release) and well worth a second look. 

Began 'TOM PETTY: Somewhere You Feel Free' (Amazon Prime). Tom Petty and his band (without the Heartbreakers's drummer but with Rick Rubin) are captured on 16mm film (found in 2020) and document the making of Petty's solo album, 'Wildflowers'. A 'behind the scenes' documentary that was definitely 'a cut above'. 

1210pm: PC is 'Off' and the plan is to tackle the leaves. The front lawn first and then hit the backyard to push the leaves into a big pile under the tulip tree. We'll call this a 'compost pile'. [Done by 3pm]

1240pm-3pm:The Leaves'

325pm- 445pm:  To Wash.Pk.- Parkview,  Wash.Pk road north side, MacArthur,  Wash.Pk south side, up the road,  Parkview,  Fairway,  and up to 940; TEDESCHI TRUCKS BAND Playlist;  WHITNEY CUMMINGS on J.R.E. 

Reading 'THE FIX'

545pm:  In the tub with 'THE FIX' and listening to TOM PETTY- 'Wildflowers'; TELEVISION'- 'Live'; PERE UBU- 'Elitism For The People'.

Finished DAN SODER on 'Are You Garbage?'

More 'SUBURRAETERNA' (Netflix). I shut it down 42 minutes into episode #3. All the gangs and The Vatican are in a race to get ownership of the land for the new Roman Colosseum.
