We 5/8/24- Buddy Sick

7am (2-LB). 750am (1-B). 835am (1-B). 1255pm (2-LB). 240pm (1-LB). 535pm (2-LB). 820pm (2-LB). 

Up 550am: Cloudy with periods of light rain in the afternoon & evening with temps to very low 70's [Early this morning the projected high was 80. The warm front must have passed us by]

Watched 'MY HAPPY FAMILY' (Kanopy). A married woman decides to leave her chaotic and claustrophobic family and get an apartment (and a life!) of her own.  Bits were hilarious, insightful and very well written. Set in the country of Georgia.  

Began 'A MAN IN FULL' (Netflix). A real estate mogul from Atlanta learns that he has borrowed much more than he can repay and his life begins to unwind. I realized that this was based on the novel by Thomas Wolfe as the credits rolled at the end of the first episode.  I shut it down 27 minutes into episode #3.

***Buddy was sick in front of the living room couch as I borrowed 'THE LAST GENTLEMAN' by WALKER PERCY from Hoopla (to Kindle).

1255pm: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT;  began JOEY DIAZ on J.R.E. 

Finished 'THE THANATOS SYNDROME' by WALKER PERCY & began 'TOTAL CONTROL by DAVID BALDACCI. 

440pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; more of CHRIS DISTEFANO on J.R.E. 

540pm:  In the tub with 'TOTAL CONTROL' and listening to FLEETWOOD MAC- 'Future Games'; JIMI HENDRIX- 'Axis Bold As Love'; GRATEFUL DEAD- 'Dick's Picks: Vol. 3'.

More of THEO VON

More 'MAN IN FULL' (Netflix). This isn't 100%, but still a fine series and I'd like to re-read the book. I shut it down 9 minutes into episode #5.

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...
