Tu 5/21/24

705am (2-LB). 735am (1-B). 820am (1-B). 1210pm (2-LB). 545pm (2-LB). 815pm (2-LB). 

Up 555am: A mix of sun & clouds, windy with temps to about 90. Thunderstorms predicted for late this afternoon and tonight. {It looked very bad around 9pm, but the storms missed Westview completely}

Watched 'VANILLA SKY' (Hoopla). I had forgotten how good this was.  It's no masterpiece, but still well worth a look. A shiftless playboy has inherited unimaginable wealth but his lady problems are his undoing. One girlfriend drove her car off of a bridge while he was her passenger. They both die, yet he begins his journey with 'Life Extension'. A couple of different realities play out and they are all reasonably compelling; with Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, Kurt Russell, Jason Lee, Timothy Spall, Tilda Swinton, and Michael Shannon. Directed by Cameron Crowe.  Nominated for 1 Oscar; 5 wins & 34 nominations. "45" Metascore and I would have rated it much higher. "The Life Extension corporation"... "I'll see you in another life when we both are cats".

More 'WILD DISTRICT' (Netflix). I shut it down 26 minutes into episode #3. Two Storylines: 1) Six missing missiles;  2) Will the female candidate win the Colombian national election? 

1125am: PC is 'Off' and the plan is to do the weights and then hit Planet Fitness. I'll stop at Schnucks for a few necessities and then do the regular grocery shopping later in the week. 

Weights: 3 sets/ 15 reps.

1225pm: To Planet Fitness.  45"Cross, 45"Treadmill,  30"Bike,  30"Treadmill,  30"Cross; JERRY LEE LEWIS: Trouble In Mind' (Netflix)- Two much of his music and I'd like more of 'Behind The Scenes; 'HARLEY & KATYA' (Netflix)- She's Russian, he's Aboriginal and they both represent Australia in the figure skating Olympics; began 'ARE YOU GARBAGE? ';  HUMBLE PIE- 'Rarities 1970- 1975'.

Schnucks receipt? When I left I noticed that I didn't have my receipt. I was wondering if I had paid for the person ahead of me. I checked my Heartland checking account at 8pm and the Schnucks bill was $38, which is about right; Beer/ onions/ apples/ Canada Dry Ginger Ale.

Reading 'THE FALCONER'

550pm: In the tub with 'THE FALCONER' and listening to MILES DAVIS- 'In A Silent Way'/ 'A Tribute To Jack Johnson'; HUMBLE PIE- 'Rarities 1970- 1975'.

More of 'WILD DISTRICT' (Netflix).  The other main character from season #1 is back in the storyline. He is also trying to get the missing missiles.

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...
