Summer Heat!

As projected in yesterday's post, I did venture forth into the latter evening ─ maybe around 9:10 p.m. ─ to do some grocery shopping at the nearest Real Canadian Superstore, a 5.625-mile round trip hike.

It was bloody warm out! Just over halfway home, and I was becoming concerned about my ability to withstand the dehydration. Had the store sold wine (it does not sell alcohol of any kind, apart from cooking wine), I would have bought a bottle.

It was maybe 11:35 p.m. by the time I was back home, and my younger brother was still up and conscious, watching T.V. Despite the late hour, I fetched two cans of the strong (8% alcohol) malt that I keep in stock, and I joined him.

He called it a night around 12:15 a.m., but I sat up to finish my brews. In doing so, I tuned in a women's MMA match on YouTube ─ I cannot recall who the fighters were, but it was a 'bare knuckle' match. 

When it was done, I could have stopped there, but I saw that the next video that had been cued was to be a profile of Thai fighter Stamp Fairtex ─ a dynamite cutie I have only become aware of in the past 10 days, but who overwhelms me.

If I am remembering correctly, the video must have been this 23-minute upload from January 18: Stamp Fairtex Behind The Fight: ONE Fight Night 6. The little beauty is so playful and fun ─ yet so devastating in the arena.

She makes me miss Thailand.

Anyway, my brother had mentioned that he had a noon dental appointment scheduled for today, but I entirely forgot about it until he announced that he was quitting our morning T.V.-watching to begin readying to leave. Fortunately, we had just finished watching something, so nothing was lost in that context.

I led off our morning with a December 3, 2021, upload to Rumble's America's Untold Stories channel ─ the video exceeded an hour (1:05:47): Alec Baldwin and the Rust Tragedy - Part 7 - The Alibi!

Mark Groubert and Eric Hunley continue the exploration of The Rust movie set tragedy where Alec Baldwin shot and killed Halyna Hutchins.
Alec Baldwin says he didn't pull the trigger?! 1st AD Dave Halls is corroborating through his attorney? Where did the live ammo come from? Seth Kenney talks.

Sure, I know that this is 'old news', but there is lots of truly interesting information in this series. So until my brother finally figures out just how old they really are, I will keep adding subsequent episodes.

Such a hot day!

Despite the two malts just ahead of my bedtime last night ─ and those were my supper, for I had only eaten a midday meal ─ the latter few hours of my night were poorly slept.

Whether it is true or not, I see online the claim that it is 29.3ΒΊ Celsius here (or somewhere) in my Surrey early into the evening. But I sunned this afternoon following an early afternoon nap, getting started on the 1½ or so hours shortly before 2 p.m.

It sure would be nice to not have a limited beer supply! If I had some 'regular strength' beers, I would have a few icing up in the fridge freezer / icebox; but I only have those strong malts, and I ration them ─ two an evening at most.

That will be later, however. I have a movie planned to start my brother and I off once he finally shows up following his socializing. But more on that tomorrow!
