Th 1/15/26- Springfield Clinic Lab Work

7am {1/2 'VIIA' 100 mg: 50 mg total}. 7am (GB: 6 rips/ a mix of Sour & Diesel). 740am (1/2-B: Tropicanna). 1155am (GB: 7 rips/Tropicanna). 540pm (GB: 6 rips/ a mix of Sour & Tropicanna). 815pm (GB: 6 rips/ a mix of Sour & Tropicanna). 

Up 515am: Mostly sunny with temps to upper 20's. 

***I attempted to enroll in the 'ID WATCHDOG' (ID Theft Protection with AT&T) and was told that they will send me an email in the next couple of days to complete the enrollment. They are showing that I'm deceased, although I am enrolled in the program and I am being monitored, I just can't access the info. You couldn't make this stuff up. 

Watched 'BACKSTABBING FOR BEGINNERS' (Netflix). A quality 'Espionage' film about a young man who goes to work at the UN shortly before the US invasion of Iraq in 2003. He and his boss uncover a billion dollar corruption scheme within the 'Food For Oil' program. His boss was in on the grift and accepted unknown amounts of cash and still maintained that he did more good than harm. "The lies that we tell ourselves are worse than the lies that we tell each other"; with Theo James, Ben Kingsley, Jacqueline Bisset. Only "48" Metascore and I would go to "82". From 'MOVIE NATION'- ""Backstabbing” makes an interesting run at painting the many shades of grey in this corner of diplomacy."   

***920am: I got a call from Springfield Clinic that there was a problem with my blood sample from yesterday and I'd  have to have it redone. I remember that the woman who drew the blood didn't seem to know what she was doing. I'll go to the place on Wabash after Planet Fitness later this afternoon. 

Finished '11.22.63' (Netflix). The guy goes back in time to 'save Kennedy' and realizes that he has caused more harm than good. Any 'Bad' is 'Good' for somebody, and vice versa. Not a bad series, but I'd only rate it a 'C-Plus' at most.  

1125am: The PC is 'Off' and the plan is to hit Planet Fitness and then west to Springfield Clinic to redo the blood draw. 

1210pm: Planet Fitness...45"Cross, 45"Treadmill, 30"Recumbent Bike, 30"Treadmill, 30"Cross. .THREE HOURS...watched 'BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE' (Netflix)- A very mediocre biopic about Bob Marley; more cannabis videos; more 'SPY OPS' (Netflix)- Invasion of Panama, 1989.

335pm- 4pm home: To Springfield Clinic on Wabash. This woman had no trouble drawing blood and only took a couple of minutes. 

Reading 'STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND 

545pm: In the tub with 'STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND' and listening to KING CRIMSON- '1969- 2003'; KING'S X Playlist; KINKS Anthology. 

Watched YouTube video 'COMPLETE HISTORY OF MARIJUANA: THE WORLD'S MOST WANTED DRUG' (1 hr 4 mins).

More 'HIGH TOWN' (Netflix). I finished episode #2 of the new season. I couldn't believe the scene with an erect naked penis at the strip club. That has to be a first. You don't even see that in foreign films.

Tu 9/30/25- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy

 Tu 9/30/35- Flu Shot/ COVID/ Gummy 730am (1-LB: a mix of Diablo's & Citrus). 815am (1/2-B: Diablo's Hearse). 1255pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 1pm [I took 1/2 'DIET SMOKE]. 250pm (1/2-B: Citrus Mac). 435pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 810pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac).  Up 635am: Sunny & unseasonably warm with temps almost to 90. Borrowed 'HOLY COW' and 'TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH' from Hoopla to meet my quota for September. Watched 'HOLY COW' (Hoopla). A troubled teen and his young sister try to make a go of it on their farmstead dairy after their father dies. It's got a strange tone and far from an average 'coming of age' tale. Set in far eastern France near the rural villages of Pimorin and Orgelet which are about 75 miles west of Geneva, Switzerland. "83" Metascore and I would go to "91".  Watched 'BEYOND TRAINSPOTTING: The World Of Irvine Welsh' (Kanopy). An excellent profile of t...

Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy

 Fr 10/3/25- Brandenburgs/ Gummy  735am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 820am (3 hits-B: Citrus Mac).  1215pm [I took 1/3 of 'VIIA' 100 mg: 33 mg total].(1-LB: Citrus Mac).  240pm (4 hits-B: Diablo's Hearse). 435pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 530pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 815pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 630am: Rain was "in the area", but missed Westview and more sunny & unseasonably warm weather with temps close to 90. {No rain in a long time & it's getting crunchy}  About 730am several 'tree trimming' trucks arrived and parked just down the street. I first thought that they were for the house across the street, but it looks like the action is farther down the road. They disappeared by 10am and I think they were at the house 'with the indoor whirlpool'.  Watched 'UPGRADE' (Netflix).  A very fine 'Dystopian/ SciFi' genre film about a couple in Melbourne ("in a not too distant future") who are in their 'auto...

Th 10/2/25- WYNK

 Th 10/2/25 8am (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse). 10am (1-B: Citrus Mac). 1220pm (2-LB: Citrus Mac). 535pm (1-LB: Citrus Mac). 810pm (1-LB: Diablo's Hearse).  Up 715am: {took a dump at 4am}. Still unseasonably warm with a mix of sun & clouds. Watched 'MAGPIE' (Kanopy- borrowed 2 days ago).  It's basically a tale of 'Adultery & Revenge' although this isn't made clear until the last few minutes of the film. A wealthy couple live in a modern villa in the English countryside. He's a successful author, she is a housewife (she used to be in publishing) and their young daughter is co-starring in a big budget film that's being shot  near their home. Dad falls 'in lust' for the female star of the film, but his wife is several moves ahead. "69" Metascore and I would boost that to "80". From RogerEbert.com: "In its style, “Magpie” is a marital thriller with noir trappings galore, including an almost ridiculously convoluted (y...
