We 10/9/24- Buddy Appointment/ Flu & Covid Shots

 We 10/9/24- Buddy Appointment/ Flu & Covid Shots

740am (2-LB).  850am (1/2-B). 1240pm (2-LB). 535pm (2-LB). 815pm (2-LB).

Up 640am: Bright & sunny with temps to about 80.

Watched 'KILLER HEAT' (Amazon Prime). A run of the mill Detective/Noir set on a Greek island. A wealthy man and heir to a shipping fortune is killed in a rock climbing accident, but his sister in law thinks it was murder. She calls in a boozy PI and he solves the case.  It was the twin brother and the wife was in on it, but she had a reason. Her husband wouldn't let her go; with Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Shailene Woodley. The film got scathing reviews and received a "33" Metascore. I would give it about a "63"- just barely a passing grade. 'THE GUARDIAN'"A dull and predictable sunshine noir that wastes the time of those involved as well as ours".  

Finished 'YELLOWJACKETS' (Netflix). A muddled and unsatisfactory ending and a YouTube 'Ending Explained' is a necessity. The explanation was just a recap of Season 1, but I learned that there is a Season 2 and possibly a Season 3. Season 2 is available on Amazon Prime, Paramount Plus, and Showtime but it costs.

More 'THE ACCIDENT' (Netflix). I finished episode #2 and the missing 'bounce house' girl is found under a waterfall and Moncho is poisoned in his jail cell. It's nothing if not designed to keep you watching.

1205pm: The PC is 'Off' and it's 'Treadmill and Tuesdays'; more of the two nutritionists on J.R.E. Such important information and excellent health ideas, but they think the answer is Trump? The reason that the cigarette companies bought out the food industry is that they could make the most money. This is Trump's prime motivator, to make money and he could give a shit about the nation's health.

***For the past few days Buddy has not been acting himself. I noticed on Google Calendar that I needed to get more blood work in mid October, so I called and made an appointment. When I told the clerk about his condition, she said that Dr. Kirt would see him between 730am and 830am on Friday. I guess he'll do the blood work and then examine him. This might be the beginning of his kidney shutdown. He still has an appetite, but he seems very weak and he can barely hop onto a chair and he has very little balance.

1245: FIVE MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT; TUESDAYS WITH STORIES; more J.R.E.

Reading 'GONE TO SOLDIERS'

10pm: TWO MILES AT 4.1 PACE AND ZERO SLANT

***I called to arrange flu and covid shots on Monroe, but scheduled it for the Walgreens on MacArthur. The appointment was at 410pm and I was home by 430pm. I was shocked to learn that if you didn't have insurance (she thought I still had Aetna but I changed to Healthcare Alliance) the flu shot is one hundred dollars and the Covid is $200. In all of the hoopla about vaccines, I had never heard that they were expensive, yet they clearly are!

Reading 'GONE TO SOLDIERS'

540pm: In the tub with 'GONE TO SOLDIERS' and listening to

EARTH, WIND & FIRE Playlist; EARTHLESS- 'From The Ages'; DEFTONES Playlist.

Began DEREK TRUCKS on RICK BEATO.

More 'THE ACCIDENT' (Netflix). Now the internet says that it was filmed in Santa Cruz, Mexico which is completely different from where I thought it was. That location was fifty miles south of Mexico City, and Santa Cruz is close to the US/ Mexico border. Just learned that Santa Cruz is a fictional town and the mountains are probably the Sierra Madre mountain range. I shut it down 12 minutes into episode #4.
