Is this you?
It was nearly 3:15 a.m. before I got to bed last night ... and it was NOT because of any walk.
I almost did not leave myself any time early in the evening for the movie I wrote of ─ even then I was too occupied with base pursuits. That began in the latter afternoon.
Fortunately, the movie was begun just in time ─ its closing credits were rolling when my brother finally arrived home from his daily socializing.
The movie was 2000's Playing Mona Lisa, and I wanted to watch it solely because of my attraction for Alicia Witt who was at most 24 years old during the movie's filming. If it was filmed prior to her August 21 birthday in 1999, then she would have been the same age as her character ─ 23.
She looked younger, though. But then, I am saying that as a 73-year-old.
There were familiar faces in the movie, including the two actor's portraying Alicia's character's parents: Elliott Gould and Marlo Thomas ─ who was still looking pretty darned good, even though she was in her early 60s at the time.
I had no idea that Marlo was almost a dozen years older than I am.
Johnny Galecki had one of the main supporting roles ─ everyone knows him from the T.V. series The Big Bang Theory, and maybe Roseanne / The Connors.
Alicia's character's best friend was played by Brooke Langton, who is not familiar to me. She wore several rather provocative outfits in the movie, and showcased a set of legs that seemed likely to best Alicia's ─ who didn't display much in this movie, unfortunately.
This is a photo of Brooke, but not one having anything to do with the movie:
Incidentally, Johnny Galecki's character was supposedly genius-level (what a typecast!), and was inexplicably attracted to and hugely aggravated by a "cheerleader" who consistently whipped him at the word game Scrabble.
I am not familiar with that actress either, but her name was Tammy Townsend ─ and I had absolutely no idea that the actress was considered to be Black. This photo of her is not from the movie either:
I do not remember that she had a small role in the comedy T.V. series Two and a Half Men, but there is a short video clip of her from that series on YouTube where she is giving Alan a lap dance.
As for the movie Playing Mona Lisa, it was definitely for fans of Alicia's ─ or maybe Johnny Galecki. However, I was already feeling very disappointed with myself for earlier misconduct, and that was keeping me from full investment in the movie. I am sure that I would have enjoyed it more if I had been in a better state of mind.
The only working source I found for the movie was at this link at OK.ru. You can watch the movie without logging in, but you must be quick ─ get the video to play full screen before any login or related pop-ups black you from accessing the video screen.
I hope to get out quite early tomorrow morning for a 5½-mile walk that will see me stopping to do some shopping at the nearest Save-On-Foods store towards the walk's conclusion. The store is a little under a mile from here, so because it opens at 7 a.m., if I leave home on the walk at 6 a.m., all should proceed smoothly.
Since I want some time here to adjust for the trip ahead of leaving, I will probably rise at 4:30 a.m. And that requires that I get to bed reasonably early this evening ─ I will not be caught up by my brother whenever he gets back home from his daily socializing. He didn't even take some bed rest before heading away just after the expiration of the noon hour ─ or maybe even late into it.
He did not rise this morning until nearly 9 a.m. Since I knew that he would be reading the Saturday morning edition of the Vancouver Sun that I subscribe to, I realized that we were not going to be watching too much T.V. together later in the morning.
He was also to leave to pick up his girlfriend Bev at 10 a.m. to drive her to work. She lives just over two miles from here, and that is generally my opportunity to get out to the backyard tool shed for some exercising.
Believe me, I had my doubts about handling it this morning, for I felt inadequately slept by far. If I did not realize that I presently have an achievable ceiling of repetitions for the six sets of pull-ups and chin-ups that are the primary part of that exercise session, I never would have been able to match that ceiling: 4 - 3 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 2.
They were damned hard! I had weighed myself dressed exactly as I would be in the shed: 195 pounds. That is a lot of weight for a 73-year-old to be hauling up and down with pull-ups and chin-ups. And then topping off everything with a maximum set of push-ups ─ honestly, sometimes I feel like I am a candidate for a stroke or heart attack.
The main video that my brother and I were to watch was yesterday's upload to Rumble of Thursday's livestream by the A Warrior Calls channel: Murderers All of Them.
From what Christopher James is promising, Monday's livestream might well have extremely encouraging news. We shall see ─ my brother and I will probably watch that video on Tuesday.
The video that we did watch included a clip that I have seen a few times over the past two or three days ─ here is one example from Rumble's Sunfellow On Covid-19's channel ─ the video is less than two minutes long: A Sample Of The Rage That COVID-19 Policies Has Unleashed! (Lord, Help Us Heal).
I have been wondering who the woman was who originally recorded that arresting video of a daughter railing against everyone involved in the hospital murder of her father.
Now I know ─ here Twitter account is Kristoball82.
Apparently her name is Kristen, she lives in Virginia, and she says that as a result of this infernal casedemic / plandemic / scamdemic infesting our world for three years now, she has lost everything, and lives in her truck with her German shepherd.
She tells her story in two videos that she posted to BitChute (and probably Rumble) on January 16:
Okay, my evening is upon me this rain-free and sometimes sunny day, but reportedly rain is coming for tomorrow. I only hope that it is not a severe system that is going to impinge upon my early walk.
Right now, I plan to watch a movie ─ as was the case with Playing Mona Lisa, I will be doing so on T.V. via our Android TV Box.
