 Th 5/16/24

715am (2-LB). 8am (1-B). 9am (1-B). 1235pm (2-LB). 220pm (1-LB). 545pm (2-LB). 815pm (2-LB). 

Up 615am: Cloudy & breezy with a chance of showers with temps to about 70.

Watched 'INSIDE THE YELLOW COCOON SHELL' (Kanopy). A young man learns that his sister in law has died in a motorcycle accident and he is to take the body and the woman's five year old son back to their home in the countryside. Strange, slow, dream-like, haunting with beautiful images, but I don't know what it meant and it was too long by nearly an hour. 5 wins & 16 nominations. "94" Metascore and I would have rated it significantly lower.

(Around 1030am they must have had problems at Kanopy because the whole website was down for about ten minutes)  Allmusic was inexplicably down at 630pm, then back on by 730pm {I was on the 'down' site and it said they were having problems}. When I tried to get on Nextdoor.com around 730pm, it was also down. I noticed that it was back after I did the 'restart'. Were they connected?

12pm: PC is 'Off' and I was going to hit Esporta today, but I think I'll do it tomorrow. It's started to rain, so I'll just leave the Elantra in the garage and hit the treadmill. 

1240pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; WE MIGHT BE DRUNK with Ari Shaffir.  

Reading 'TOTAL CONTROL'

455pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; began TIG NOTARO on 'BLOCKS'.

550pm: In the tub with 'TOTAL CONTROL' and listening to DYKE AND THE BLAZERS; RONALD SHANNON JACKSON Playlist; POLICE- 'Synchronicity'.

***815pm: I noticed a prompt for a 'Restart' and came back online in a few minutes.  

More of TIG NOTARO on 'Blocks'.

Began 'FALLOUT' (Amazon Prime).  I decided to give 'EVIL' (Netflix) a break and try the series that Bobby Lee was recommending on 'Tiger Belly'. It's not bad, and it's based on a popular video game.  I shut it down 105 minutes into episode #1. I'll be back for more tomorrow evening.

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...
