The thinly snow covered Cattail trail in Mapleton Park.
My afternoon run did not got well. During my stretch break, I slipped on snow covered ice & fell on my back. Ouch. My right arm also got banged up, but it's the right muscle on my lower back that got hurt. Sitting down writing = ok. Standing up = pain. Saw 1 runner, waved hello #running

The Bouctouche Line trail in Irishtown Nature Park. This is a straight trail with trees on both sides.
It was back on the trails this morning after too many household chores yesterday keeping me too busy to run. While the temperature was minus 5Β°, there was no wind & that makes all the difference at this time of year. I was still dressed relatively lightly & felt good. #running

Mortal Kombat. It's almost a good film. The first 2 acts work really well. The 3rd act is just a bit too weak to pull it all together. The cast is great. Everyone does a fun job with their characters. #film

Cover of the paperback version of the Isaac Asimov novel The Naked Sun. Featured on the cover are: the humanoid robot Daneel Olivaw who is showing the robotic parts in his chest area, a regular looking robot, and Elijah Bailey.
The Naked Sun by Isaac Asimov. The 2nd of his robot series. I found this one far better than the 1st one. Elijah Bailey seems far more competent & less distracted by red herrings than in the 1st novel. However, there is not enough Daneel Olivaw as the plot calls for him to be absent a lot. #booksky

Kagemusha ε½±ζ¦θ
. A 1980 film by Akira Kurosawa that is pretty good. Only negative: it's a bit long at 3 hours & some shots seem to linger. The rest: all good, especially Tatsuya Nakadai who is incredible having to portray both a lord & a thief posing as the lord. #kurosawa

Sakamoto Days season 2. It's ultra violent. It's completely absurd. And yet, it's a lot of fun. This season picks up from the season 1 finale & does a good job building on that. Only minor note: it seems like Sakamoto himself was off screen a bit too much. The rest is still very good. #anime

The Tsugi trail, covered in fallen leaves, in Mapleton Park.

The cosmic forces were with me for today's run. I felt much better than the last 2 days, so could run well. Also, the temperature was warmer than expected, which was good; I only wore a short sleeve shirt & my running vest. Met up with 3 runners, waved hello. #running

I did a shorter run this morning. I had my Covid-19 & Flu vaccines yesterday. I feel just a bit tired. Still, I wanted to at least get a small run done today. Overall, it went well, though I was running a bit slower than normal. Saw 6 runners, waved hello. #running

Saw the 2016 film Star Trek Beyond for the 1st time. It's far better than Into Dumbness. The middle part does crawl. It picks up better at the end. But, the film's greatest flaw is our antagonist's motivations that, when revealed, don't seem to justify all that death & destruction. #startrek

Hataraki Man εγγγ³, a J-Drama from 2007. It's fun & funny at times, heartbreaking, and while I know that it's pushing positively for the japanese work ethic, you can also interpret it as a rebuke of it. All of our actors do a great job, especially lead actress Miho Kanno. #jdrama

The Bouctouche Line trail next to the horse pasture. There are trees on the left, but only a few on the right with a field on the extreme right.
This afternoon's run went well. Despite being only 4Β°, there was no wind, so not cold. Some good news: for the 1st time in 5 months, the main spillway was flowing. That drought really hurt us. Met up with 1 runner, waved hello. Passed another runner, did not wave, feels snobbish to do that. #running
