We 1/24/24

730am (2-B). 1220pm (2-B). 545pm (2-B). 810pm (2-B). 

Up 530am: Light drizzle this morning and then overcast with temps to about 40. Foggy in the afternoon and 'dense fog warning' for tonight through noon tomorrow. 

Watched 'MY BROTHER, MY SISTER' (Netflix). A fifty year old windsurfer and his sister learn that their father has left them joint custody of the family home. He is a reprobate and she has been overprotective of her schizophrenic & depressed son for a decade. They must learn to become a family again.  And, the mentally ill son is a world-class cello player. The film was shot in Rome, Italy and almost too weird to be corny.

I started 'KUBRA' (Netflix) by mistake and finished episode #6, but I meant to finish ''SELF MADE: Inspired By The Life Of Madam C.J. Walker' (Netflix). I was surprised to learn that the company is still around and its products are even sold at Walmart.   

1130am: PC is 'Off' and will do the weights and then hit Planet Fitness. I hope to switch to the new insurance plan. 

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps. 

1230pm: To Planet Fitness...45"Cross. 45"Treadmill.  30"Bike.  30"Treadmill.  30"Cross; watched 'SIDE EFFECTS' (Amazon Prime)- Woman knifes her husband while walking in her sleep. She was prescribed psychiatric drugs and blamed them for her aberrant behavior, but it was all part of an elaborate scam; with Rooney Mara, Channing Tatum, Jude Law, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Ann Dowd. Directed by Steven Soderbergh. "75" Metascore; watched random 'TALES OF THE FBI' (Amazon Prime).  

Schnucks: $43- Appels, Peanut Butter, Beer, Bread.

Reading 'THE GUARDIANS'.

550pm: In the tub with 'THE GUARDIANS' and listening to TRAFFIC- 'Welcome To The Canteen'; LITTLE FEAT- 'Feats Don't Fail Me Now'/ 'Best of''.

Watched 'Ari, Shane, and Norm' on the PROTECT OUR DAWG PARKS podcast.

Finished 'KUBRA' (Netflix). A truly wild & crazy film. His rendezvous with Allah was just an AI program, but God is in all things.

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...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...
