A Better Way

It may have been past 10 p.m. last evening when I got to bed with my cellphone alarm set for 2 a.m. to get me up for my five-mile walk.

Unfortunately I was sufficiently awake later in the night that I felt it needful to check the time, and discovered it to be 1:28 a.m.

I did attempt some further sleep, but decided anon to just get up and allow myself leisure to get ready for the outing ─ it was 1:40 a.m. when I rose.

The house was in darkness.

I am adept at wasting time; and so it was 2:17 a.m. once I was outside and on my way.

Oddly I felt remarkably able throughout the walk. Even so, I dispensed with the usual three or so blocks of jogging. I even felt hale early into the walk when I stopped at an elementary school playground for six sets of pull-ups and chin-ups, although I only managed the typical three repetitions in the first set and two in each of the others.

There was a suspicious dark shape that seemed to be looming fairly nearby that had me somewhat uneasy ─ it appeared that it might be someone standing somewhat back and just watching me.

When I was later returning home and shortcutting through the school property, I thought to check out the shape. It was someone's dark hoodie hanging from a pole or some such.

I recall nothing worth mentioning concerning the walk, apart from seeing what may have been a raccoon crossing a street directly behind a car that had stopped at a traffic light.

It was 4:12 a.m. once I was back outside the locked front door. And I do not believe that I returned to bed for well over an hour.

I slept abominably, but at least I felt fairly comfortable in bed.

By the way, my right thumb joint was not an impediment for those pull-ups and chin-ups. I am still suffering considerable thumb and finger joint pain from harsh typing, so I am struggling to type with considerable tenderness.

After my younger brother and I got together mid-morning for some T.V., I put our Android TV Box into action and led us off with an hour-long (1:02:30) addition livestreamed yesterday to Rumble's StewPetersNetwork channel: LIVE@8PM ET: TREASON: U.S. Funds Immigration INVASION, Man Fired For WHOOP A MAN IN A DRESS Tweet.

The bigger the lie the more aggressive the woke mob has to be in order to silence dissent.
Retired Army logistics officer Derek Imig is here to detail his firing over a tweet that was critical of the Trans agenda.
The New York Times is heaping praise on gays for stopping a disease they caused.
Dr. Lee Merritt is here to talk about how the media and elite are conditioning the public to play “disease whack-o-mole”.
America is currently being invaded unlike any country in human history.
Ben Bergquam, the host of Law and Border, is here to talk about the non-governmental organizations who are convincing migrants to enter the U.S. illegally.
John Hewlett, the formulator of Cardio Miracle, joins Stew to talk more about his journey to heart health and what makes nitric oxide so great.

The second video I tuned in was half as long (33:17), and had been uploaded to BitChute's The Corbett Report channel three days ago: A Better Way - #SolutionsWatch.

Dr Tess Lawrie is a medical doctor and research consultant based in the UK. She is the CEO of Evidence-Based Medicine Consultancy and she sits on the steering committee of the World Council for Health.

After that I opted to play a previously downloaded movie ─ 2005's The Upside of Anger. Movies like this are something I cannot expect to watch in the evening with my brother because alcohol will have too severely impaired his brain ─ only when he is sober is he fully able to appreciate the quality of such well-written and -acted fare.

Since the movie's running time is not much shy of two hours, we never sat through it all ─ my brother wanted some bed rest at noon, so we probably have over 40 minutes of it to be watched tomorrow.

But it is superb.

We of course are very familiar with Kevin Costner; but even though lead actress Joan Allen does seem somewhat ─ vaguely ─ familiar to us both, her name is not.

Only one of Joan's movie daughters is not known to me ─ Evan Rachel Wood. However, I now see in her acting credits that I had indeed watched her work before ─ in fact, I was smitten by her in her role as "Dolores Abernathy" in the Westworld T.V. series. But back in 2005 when The Upside of Anger was released, she was only 18 years old at most, so her looks did mature into strong beauty.

I recognized actress Keri Russell ─ who played one of the other three daughters; but just why she was so familiar (I could not name her) was unknown to me. I now realize it is because I very much enjoyed her in the titular role in the T.V. series Felicity. I only needed to see her name in the credits to remember this 'factoid'.

Another daughter is played by Erika Christensen ─ I well remember her (and her gorgeously-muscled legs) in the long-running T.V. series Parenthood.

The fourth daughter was played by Alicia Witt ─ and she is the very reason that I recorded and wanted to see the movie. I adore her!

Incidentally, I am not entirely sure, but I may have downloaded the movie at this MoviesJoy link.

This was my brother's day to bus away to a specific pub to rendezvous with at least one of his drinking buddies, so after he left (I had been busy recording another movie after having a meal), I napped; and then maybe around 3:15 p.m., I spent perhaps 1½ hours sunning out in the backyard.

Since it is already 7:45 p.m., I am going to halt blogging for today and round up a little supper while watching some T.V. as I await my brother's homecoming. I hope he is not too darned late ─ I have a movie in mind for us to watch.
