 Th 10/10/24- Apples Delivered

715am (2-LB). 920am (2-LB). 1045am (1/2-B). 1pm (2-LB). 440pm (1-LB). 540pm (2-LB). 815pm (2-LB). 

Up 6am: Bright & sunny with temps to about 80.

Watched 'THE LADY IN THE CAR WITH GLASSES AND A GUN' (Hoopla).  It's a French Noir/ Art Film about a smoking hot French secretary who is dragged into a murder plot. Her boss wants her to finish transcribing a report at his home and then take him,  his wife and daughter to the airport. The secretary is to keep the car (a vintage American Thunderbird)  and drive it back to their home in Paris. Along the way she decides to go to Nice because she has never seen the sea. She meets a man who seduces her and she has a mesmerizing effect upon any male human.  And after many crazy plot twists, she discovers a body in the trunk of her boss's car. Her boss killed this man because he was blackmailing his wife. The entire film works because Freya Mavor, the actress that plays 'Dany', is sexy enough to carry off the rather tenuous plotline. Lightweight, yet worth a look. 

Began 'THE TERMINAL' (Netflix). A man arrives at the New York airport from an Eastern European country. While he was in the air, his country's government was toppled and the country was 'closed'. When he arrives in America he's a man without a country and cannot leave the airport. He stayed for almost a year. He came to New York to get a signature of jazz legend Benny Golson for his father. A sweet movie with lots of heart and Tom Hanks does some nifty physical comedy that's hilarious; with Tom Hanks, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Stanley Tucci, and Diego Luna. Directed by Steven Spielberg. Filmed in California, Quebec, and New York. "55" Metascore and I would have added at least fifteen points.  

***Both of my arms are sore from yesterday's shots. I also feel tired and run down, but that might not be connected to the vaccines. And, Buddy has not bounced back. He seems worn out and still very unstable on his feet, although he is still eating. 

1230pm: The PC is 'Off' and I'll do a walk in Washington Park, but no weights.  

110pm- 245pm: To Washington Park...Parkview,  Wash.Pk. northside,  MacArthur,  Wash.Pk southside,  Douglas,  Leland,  Lincoln,  Ash,  Wiggins,  Wash.Pk southside,  up the hill,  Parkview,  Fairway, and up to 940...ONE HOUR AND 35 MINUTES; EARTHLESS- 'ASK The Ages'; finished the 2 nutritionists on J.R.E. 

Reading 'GONE TO SOLDIERS'

445pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; STAVY on 'Blocks'.

***Just as I was getting off of the treadmill I got a call from Janny. She was at the breezeway door and wanted to drop off some apples from Carol & Bob. I told her about Buddy's condition and his visit to the hospital tomorrow. This might be her last chance to see him. I hope not, but he's awfully weak.  

545pm: In the tub with 'GONE TO SOLDIERS' and listening to COMMODORES- 'Machine Gun'; ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND- '7 Turns'/ 'Enlightened Rogues'.

More of STAVRO HALKIAS on 'Blocks'.

***8pm-810pm: Windows Update. I thought it was in a loop and when I started to manually turn it off, it took off. No discernible difference..... 

More 'THE ACCIDENT' (Netflix). I shut it down 30 minutes into episode #5. This is so melodramatic. Everyone is either screaming, crying, or sipping shots of mezcal.

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...
