Tried to ride my stationary bike a little, but there was nothing gratifying about it. I don&#8217;t think that did it, but I felt pretty lousy for the rest of the day thereafter. My shoulder I mean, hurt in ways it hasn&#8217;t for a while. <\/p>\n<p>So I guess I&#8217;m in the good days and bad days phase? OK, fine. I missed the scar tissue sequence that I was promised was such a joy. My therapy was unexciting, but not horrible as promised. I have more good days than bad. I can deal with all that. <\/p>\n<p>If I just sit very still. <\/p>\n<p>Shot this video late in the afternoon. Didn&#8217;t come out quite as I&#8217;d hoped. The way the sun was dancing in the leaves was beautiful, and I didn&#8217;t quite capture it. But this is still pretty nice:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/blip.tv\/play\/htNMg4eHFAA.html?p=1\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"http:\/\/a.blip.tv\/api.swf#htNMg4eHFAA\" style=\"display:none\"><\/embed><\/p>\n<p>I dozed off in my chair this evening. I&#8217;ll blame the medication. Had dinner and found myself wide awake. Great. Another one of those nights. <\/p>\n<p>So I watched <a TARGET=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0985699\/\">Valkyrie<\/a>. It wasn&#8217;t that great. IMDB notes:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>David Bamber (Adolf Hitler) is the only non-German cast member who speaks with a German accent. The filmmakers felt that audiences would be distracted by Hitler speaking in Bamber&#8217;s natural British accent.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Because everyone else speaking in their native, non-German accented English was perfectly normal sounding. At least five of the generals, for example, were played by English actors. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m on a two-movie streak right now. Previously I watched <a TARGET=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1340800\/\">Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy<\/a>, which had both Gary Oldman and Colin Firth and refused to go anywhere.  Maybe the point was: <em>The spy game isn&#8217;t as exciting as movies suggest. And here&#8217;s a guy that&#8217;s been killed most brutually.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So I guess the next movie I TiVo should be an obvious winner. Or maybe I should just stick with watching the leaves. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not the best day today.
