8:20 Nobody would believe. Not a person, a cat. The new neighbor upstairs has a cat tree at the sliding window and when the cat jumps and runs it feels in here like a small earthquake. Then the sulfur dioxide accumulating from walls outgassing in the space between ceiling and floor upstairs is being released in small amounts.
More than that, it looks like the cat, like any feline or predator, feels when a big mammal is stressed out (by writing, searching, thinking and then it runs some more, increasing stress). It's automatic.
This morning, yesterday morning my blood pressure raised so much i almost fainted or had a heart attack or stroke.
About an hour ago when i finished posting about eqs, i stood and walked, air the room, for about an hour and i think now i'm ready to go back to sleep.
1:14 (4:14 Eastern) I was watching the stock market as i was eating another can of sardines, reading articles, trying to figure why it turned around when i went to bed and woke up like ten times by noises and apnea caused by sever stomach pain...
My second favorite, after fish and fries...S&P went up 0.8% in 20 minutes or so and was wondering why, when i realized something was wrong with the fish. Salty and spicy like hell, probably the other cause behind my blood pressure raising and stomach pains in the last few days which made me quit smoking and drinking...
I looked carefully at the cans, they are similar with the others i bought from WinCo. Mislabeled? Now my eyes are hurting a bit.
5:22 I'm back with newly re-installed Windows. It took about half hour or less than expected. Until i could turn off wi-fi and because i had to bialy start the phone to confirm signing-in, i have some pains in the legs.
07:11 PM Somebody was playing biker here last 15 minutes, but he stopped when i started to write this. Prior to that, there was the tan You Con across the alley. At a certain time they were both. They shook dust from building, gas from walls and floor above. As a result, i screwed everything i've done in the last half hour or so. Taking a break. There is little doubt in my mind they haven't done it intentionally.
07:27 PM there is a brand new black Mercedes SUV with dealer number where my truck used to be a few days ago (50 to 100k). There's a party going on in an apartment in the next building and can see and hear the guys when i smoke. There is a couch in the bin across the alley and two stinky mats in the SW bin.
07:44 PM Grabbed some crackers and a beer, kids came to play by the cable box.
Tuesday, May 28, 2024
6:14 Went to the restroom, someone again flushed the toilet, probably at 4, like they always do. (Why?). See what i mean when i say am being monitored 24/7? Went outside to the bins, a plane few very very low. If it's not a plane, it's a siren etc..
One trick i have not spoke about and one brown bag i haven't seen before. They knot the bag too low while the bag is dirty above the knot.
Did more pictures but they came blurred as i was so mad so i went back. Another Latina came and threw something in the bin right before (the other one got real close to me while i was taking a picture in the first set.
The SW bin (Nr.5) has too many items that are not in tight bags or no bags at all. Also, where i cleaned the other day after they broke a litter bag. They came yesterday to power wash the areas around bins. The most "benefited" the bin across the alley, the closest. Half hour of 100 dB noise and vibration. However the one seen below was done very briefly and they spread the hazardous waste across the alley where cars pass and raise it.
Another rain short rain, another stream with redwood dust in the middle of the alley. Again, the cars will raise the very irritant dust to the sky.
9:20 AM I went to take the garbage. Finally met with the woman who uses blue and white bags. She throws them from a distance, unknotted. She avoided looking at me. This one ended in the bin however on top of other bags. So i picked it and threw it in the back where it usually falls at the bottom. She has two medium size dogs and i saw where she went. Of course it was all her choice to come in the same time with me.
Here i am being monitored 24/7.
10:35 Nimic din ce scriu aici nu rămâne "neadresat", pentru uitare, estompare, numiți-o cum vreți. Este felul lor de a trata cu ceva care a apărut în media și nu trebuia să apară. Apropo, cine a auzit de regele păstrăvului mai înainte de acum? Și nici măcar nu dădeam la păstrav, ci la caras, de distracție, lângă un lac de șes.
Chestia e că ei sunt în toate funcțiile, dețin toate pârghiile și sunt foarte bine organizați pe când noi ne uităm din banca noastră cu gura căscată la show-urile scrise de scriitorii lor cu o zi înainte. Unii își screw singuri ca de exemplu Imre Babics, pruncul păpușar.

6:37AM Nevermind that. I have to replace the AC low pressure hose that cost 280 bucks on ebay. The apartment now smells like cat litter dust. Found a number of open dog bags by the SW bin. There is also a spillage of litter dust by the bin i tried to avoid stepping in.
8:00 Never mind all that. I found the hose with the meter and the AC is not leaking. Don't know what i saw. It's just that it does not work under 58 Fahrenheit outside period.
8:10 AM Never mind that either. The reading would be the same even if you have only one drop of liquid refrigerant left.
What i need is an adapter for my hose (that came with the vacuum pump and only had one adapter) to measure the high pressure while it's working. I think the compressor needs enough refrigerant to build up the high pressure on the right column in the chart below. But they only come in pairs and already have the low one. Whatever. Have you noticed how funny some of the new Chinese "brands" are? Ha ha.
What i needed a vacuum pump for? To suck all the moisture from inside the pipes because they caught smelly mold. Yes, inside the lines. Also removes all the air that would mix with refrigerant and diminish cooling capacity). I let it run for an hour and yes, it worked.
Note the chart ends (or better said starts) at 65 F with 25 psi for low pressure. I believe the low pressure cutoff switch is set at that pressure and the compressor quits working under that. So it would not work under 65. To clear many discussions on this theme on forums. However mine was working yesterday all the way down to 58 F and wasn't working anymore at 55. Also should note that when driving, some of the lines are also heated by the engine. So the cutoff switch is set even lower.
1:54 This litter dust spillage happened just before we left for our Memorial Day weekend trip. It felt like a trap and since i was leaving i thought it wouldn't have bothered me too much so i left it untouched. About a month before in the day of my last dr. visit, they did it again but on a smaller scale.
It was on the right of the cage, inside and in front.
Like back then, it looks like someone came with a bag with litter dust and it broke just before reaching its destination.
So instead they came with a last minute fix. They put some by the driver's door in our parking spot which i picked on my shoes, being in a hurry.
Today i first went to look when i noticed, again, the oil spillage by the transformer not far from that bin, the smell and the loud buzzing sound due to lack of cooling. Second time, i grabbed the camera, nitrile gloves, a garbage sack etc.. However at the bin i met with the blue eyed smoking guy who i also suspect is bringing blue open bags at that bin so i just turned around. They do this when they need time to prepare something else which they did.
When i went the third time, there was this red car with large exhaust who stopped not far, making a big noise. So ir distracted me, forgot to put my gloves on, however i had the mask. In the same time a black small SUV, i think Toyota (i know the're not into electric cars) with WA LPN backed up making that whistling electric car noise covered by the red car and almost hit me from behind while i was picking the s... Though it was not necessary to back up that much to get out of the spot.
In the end i gathered about 10 pounds of spillage mixed with bones from a barbecue which i put in a garbage bag, knoted and put it in the bin. However, some aloready have mixed with soil and embedded into the ground.
2:15 One ended, another one started. We ran out of bread. I made some pizza dough that is now raising. Angela is cooking some eggplants left in the fridge otherwise empty. The "kids" from Japan and Hungary dressed summerly came in the back leaning in all kinda positions (no gymnastics today) by the cable box (next to the transformer shown above). Now they hit the box so i can hear them. So i just shut the backdoor and put the blinds on. Too late cause the smell of the cooking went outside.
4:50 I was eating pizza and posting here when the "kids" came back.
6:10 PM
8:30 PM Angela went to the stores. I slept two hours.
Saturday, May 25, 2024
9:20 Just came home after a 300 miles trip. The new upstairs neighbor came in the same time with us and said high and Angela welcomed her. After i parked on my spot i found next to driver's door a fistful of cat litter dust. I saw the day before a cat tree behind the sliding door at their living. I was lucky enough it was still daylight when i got back and i saw it. But probably didn't when i left and stepped on it.
Now i understand the weird conversation with a guy at Three Rivers Casino, the guys mopping the carpet, cleaning the floor with a cleaning machine, the multitude of people carrying buckets and washing everything.
It also explains why i slept only three hours and why i was so energetic when i drove the last part of the trip.
Also the A/C of the car quit working under 60 F outside and can't find the pressure meter. Unrelated. Was still working in the morning.
9:40 It just occurred to me. The new neighbor looks just like the woman at 4, with a different look. She also steps and stomps in similar ways as those who just left. On my thoughts and frustrations.
11:04 Found a leak at the AC by the compressor and oil on the panel. I think it's a seal. Doesn't look a very tough job (one or two bolts) but it needs removing of the coolant reservoir to make some room, releasing of the freon, vacuuming of the system and then recharging.
11:12 AlanisMorrisette. Yeah i heard her on the radio a bit too much these days and that raised a suspicion (thank you local DJs). Used to be a fan, now it's thinning. Not only for her, for many others. I see and hear music with different eyes and ears these days. I remember intensely her songs since October 1995, and back then i was always thinking. I won the green card lottery and then maybe i died and went to Hell.
Lyrics. The exact type of cheerfully-contemplative-sad-reflective-ironic type of Jewish Hungarian fatalism (yea, we, the Europeans use the word ironic and so many others in a totally different way).
No, i think it was the other way around. I died on my 35 birthday of a stroke, just like Dante said (nel mezzo), after i drank all day fishing in the heat on a side of a lake, without any water (isn't it ironic), then i got the letter saying i won the green card lottery for which i applied about one year before while i was still alive and forgot about and then i went to Hell 40 days later, on August 6, which Hell is actually a sort of Parallel Universe where you pay for what you've done before. Then it counts down back to 0 and then i'll see if Dante was right all the way to the end.
They were good songs but it has been sooo long. Then the yodeling. How can a Jewish woman yodel like an Irish? A ok her father is. Whatever. And why the hell i always thought that song was actually about me?
11:19 She went quiet for almost an hour but after i posted the above entry she started a load of laundry and now a big stomp on top of were i am. Or just filling the tub. I don't know, a big water hiss.
11:20 It stopped now. However the place filled with smell from the ceiling due to that hiss.
Thursday, May 23, 2024
9:36 Went to smoke a cigarette to get rid of smell of dog poop and nausea and a short person with a small dog was playing hide and seek with me around the building. So i kept going inside waiting for her to leave. Then i lighted the cigarette but a tall person with two dogs came from the direction the first one left. Two coincidences to start my day.
9:44 Another person came with two dogs, this would make 3 within 10 minutes. Sirens are sounding in the distance.
10:00 Sirens just stop. It all caused me anxiety with raising of blood pressure and palpitations.
10:07 Angela forgot her phone here. I'm gonna drive to Eaton to put it in her car.

1:25 PM Burned out by the project i think i finished today. Not that is much brain in my head left to burn...
She did it again. Do you see the solar symbol on top of her head in the first scene? Doctor bending backwards? Generating link... Also known as brain f...t. BTW my browser caught a bug that doubles all my links of which BTW honestly i got fed with... Adding zillions of links to my posts that is.
And there are probably 100 other comments to be be made about this video loaded with symbolism pollution they are playing like crazy on the radio these days but simply don't feel like watching it. No it's not her singing. It's all AI.
1:45 Talking about pollution... The smell in here is so bad i had to do the second part of my sleep with the ozone generator on... I visited the bins this morning, disposed of some poops, i smell more right now. Today is Wednesday, they will pick the garbage tomorrow, i want to see how, there is lots of stuff on top of the lids, but the bins have been like that for days... I suspect people from outside the complex come and through here...
There was a broken sack by one of them containing rotting food of the same type we last ate, as they do. Training bacteria for that type of foods that is. Halves rotten grapefruit. I only started to drink diluted grapefruit juice a couple of days ago, those were rotting for weeks, they must have brought them from somewhere else. Also the bin in the first picture was never full until about a month ago.
Last Thursday i put some gloves on and threw the sacks left on the ground after garbage truck emptied the bin and filled half of the second bin in the pictures below. But they weren't only sack. In a open plastic container i found several pounds of dried big dog poops with hair in it? and pounds of bees' or wasps' wax, and a million of other non household items.
2:22 Talking about artificial intelligence and f...sss. I was in the car the other day and i heard Billie Eilash new "song" that was featuring a new type of "instrument". BTW, when i think, Katy Perry with Kissed a Girl is so left behind when compared to her.

10 AM A few weeks ago i found an envelope from the mailbox above mine hanging (protruding) into mine through a crack by the little door but i don't believe could have gotten in there easily. Numbers are assigned randomly, not by apartment numbers.
Could have easily pulled it out. I think i wrote or commented about. About a week ago they gave us a notice they will replace the mailboxes. Today when i'm about to finish my project, they came to replace those.
As it was smelling, i went to dispose of the offending materials. People were moving around me creating deception. I went inside several times to get more bags as they were small (and soft, very hard to pick) and every time i knotted a bag, i found a new ones. One came with two dogs as i was picking. He picked his stuff but there was more left behind. One woman came right after i was done. It still smells.
2:48 More and more people use heat pumps for getting more heat for the dollar. The reason this happens is because heat pumps, as their name says, do not create heat by means of chemical reactions or electric current, where efficiency can be in best case scenario 100% (electric heaters) while heat generated by chemical reactions needs an isolation from the source (furnace, that needs to burn stuff in a closed circuit for reasons of pollution) and transfer it with a loss but rather move the heat (energy) from one area to another which can be even from cold (by making it even colder) to hot.
Heat pumps are 3-4 times more efficient than 100% measured at the hot radiator (inside) but they also "borrow" that energy from the other "room" (outside) which means a total of 7-8 times more energy than the energy needed for the compressor to work.
But if we close the circuit with a Sterling engine, which uses two sources, one hot and one cold and has a 50% efficiency, we can indeed create energy from nothing, satisfying Leo Szilard's predictions since 1929, the year of great financial crisis (maybe caused by it) or even earlier by Maxwell (Maxwell's demon).
An early example of heat pumps, which work the other way around, are the refrigerators and ACs.
BTW It did make it to market. The 1960s Romania was full of them. In fact, it was the only type you could find LOL. They only needed a resistor powered by AC to work.

2:23 PM Latest from the ninja house. I went to fill the washer fluid reservoir at the car. But the car was not responding to the remote. I opened it with the key and then i filled it.
Then i went searching for the cause. First i thought the remote battery was dead, but then i remembered something. When i did the rounds at 6:30 (nothing found) and came back the car had the headlights on. I had Angela's keys with the remote on my pocket and i thought i must have touched it. Then they went back off and i went inside.
So i went and checked the car's battery first. Dead. I really don't understand how it happened because this car turns the headlights off after 15 seconds or so.
I have been arguing many times with Angela about using this as a lazy driver's feature. I mean, not to turn the headlights off and leave that for the car. Today i had the proof as why it is not a good habit.
It was very silent this morning here. But as i went to look for the jump starter (and bend myself into the car) they started. Cars passing behind to catch the view. There was this real Latino looking guy checking his phone behind the car. Then, a person with a cane with three children, moving slowly. So i waited for those go go away. My jump started had the battery almost drained itself but it did start the engine. Now the show is back on after i gave them a jump start.
Could be related to the fact i posted something about being on a deadline.
2:55 PM I plugged in the jump starter on a 3 amps phone charger. A reciprocating engine military like painted helicopter flew like 500 ft above the building about 10 minutes ago (SW to NE). Now the kids restarted yelling as i went to smoke.
Saturday, May 18, 2024
9:50 I am very busy these days with a project. Today the people from the complex had a party across the alley. There was a HAPPY BIRTHDAY sign and balloons colored red and black. Angela went to the stores and i went to smoke and they were a bunch of kids and short adults passing by the open door in the back.
Then a "Mexican" came to with a bottle and was drinking looking at me. Then i felt a smell, but i thought it was by the front door. Change of patterns. I didn't go to search for it while they were partying. Mostly children yelling, very loud.
After Angela came and got darker the smell was unbearable so i went. At the SW bin there was again a blue open bag kinda hidden in the hanging slider (don't know the real name) outside the bin. Hard to pick, i tried with a stick then i went around the bin, squeezing really hard between the bin and the wire cage, then i threw it. Like always lately there was a guy in a car idling next to it. I went and searched for more at the other bins for a while and came back.
After i washed my hands once, i started to do the dishes. Trouble. When i was trying to rinse them, they were still slippery no matter how long or hard i tried. I threw the sponge, grabbed a new one, the same. Then i i used a towel and wiped my hands really hard and they the dishes became less sleepery but could never get whatever it was out of them.
10:27 The project i'm working on. I am on a deadline and cannot afford more time to play with the very complicated formulas of moon phase and distance. So an idea came to me which seems the unthinkable. To get them from Stellarium. Is very simple, i open a small Stellarium window next to my sheet, put in the date and then i get phase (illumination) and distance. However it's awkward. I had to input the date as three fields + hour, and then to get the two, round them in my mind, etc.
I was sure i made numerous mistakes and started over to correct them when this idea came to me. I cannot paste the date into Stellarium, but i can paste the Julian date. So i had to invent a formula to convert date + hour into Julian date which took me half day but now it's much easier and less prone to mistakes cause i copy the JD from my sheet, paste it into Stellarium so i cannot possibly put in wrong numbers and then i get the values. However because i don't use minutes, there is an error of up +/-0.2% for the phase cause the distance is less sensible with minutes.

2:30 Nu bine ce și au început să apară iar poze (fotoșocate) cu Simona Halep în rol de gorilă cu coc de samurai. Man!... nasty!
7:00 AM I'm in trouble. Did the bins tour, did not find any bags but the smell... I don't know who is putting that stuff in there, but i don't believe is from the apartments here. Anyways, i never see anybody throwing anything and then the next day the bin if full... After the heat yesterday you cannot even get close to those bins, but the trouble is i can feel it when i open the door...
11:55 Meme du jour. Earthquakes always come in pairs.
12:35 Instead of going for a walk i got caught in a string of youtube shorts and i saw something that i need to share. Made in China.
2:40 There is in the next building a couple of people i think blacks raised in Japan that keep coming several times a day with a big dark dog and a tiny one to poop at my windows. Though they generally pick, using black bags, with meticulous motions reminding of Japanese people that are about to sit, i think they throw the bags open (found two black open yesterday) and there are times when they leave behind fragments.
Today i made some noodles soup and started to gather laundry in the same time. Was moving around gathering laundry and eating in the same time. I pulled the shirt of my back thinking to throw it in the washer, took one more load of noodles in my mouth when i saw the black guy with the dogs, wearing a neon reflecting vest saying the word Sheriff with big letters on the back. I know this is illegal.
Though the lights in the kitchen area were on, the light outside on a sunny day in May 15 is too bright for someone to see inside. At times, they send kids, either Japanese or Hungarian or both to play scenes and do gymnastics when i'm eating.

12:30 AM 4 to 5 drinks to reach 0.08, which in 4-5 hours becomes 0.04 and it varies if you ate or not and with body weight, if you are dehydrated, etc.. I don't believe i ever drove legally intoxicated. Not by alcohol. But i drove many times being sick, like from smell of dog poop and smoke from around the building, which made me feel much more intoxicated. Something that would go away with charcoal caps, which suggest bacterial infection (food poisoning).
I was driving to Spirit Mountain by example, in a very bad condition, feeling very tired and actually falling asleep from time to time and when i was coming back i was so much better. The only reason i kept going to casinos.
One more thing. After going to 7 feathers i keep craving something. Now i remember it was not the first time i thought people there were smoking stuff other than cigarettes. Could have been second hand inhaling something. And that would have counted if i was pulled by that cop for speeding cause i guess they don't test for concentration.
I went earlier, found two, in the grass, fragmented, one on top of the SW bin lid (transparent bag, knotted). Under the bush near the hydrant was something like a piece of plastic. I puled it and it kept comming until i realized it was a roll of garbage sacks. Now who would throw an unused roll of plastic sacks under the bush?
10:03 Was feeling sick. Felt the smell. Wind is blowing from north. There was only one blue with white bag in the North bin. Open, thrown in the middle of the bin, could not reach it. I grabed a stick, sort of closed it and pushed it lower among other sacks.
7:15 PM I slept and woke up about 20 minutes ago. Went outside and sat on the folding chair. I felt the nice summer wind blowing from the SE bin, bringing garbage smell. I was watching the robins eating my grass seed. Was craving green beans. Then i heard a noise. 5 kids were behind me. 3 Japanese, 2 Hungarian. Went inside, shut the blinds, they ran in the alley in the front of the building (probably).
I opened the blinds, they came back in the back. Shut the blinds again, now they were staying. I looked in the freezer, was lucky, found a bag of frozen green beans, threw it in a pan on the stove. They ran away when i started to write all these.
10:20 After i put the meatloaf in the oven about half hour ago i went outside to smoke a cigarette. I saw a white older convertible with a loud exhaust moving on the alley that apparently was revving the engine periodically in the rhythm of my heart and i started to feel a pressure in my chest. When i realized what was happening, it was replaced by a load base doing basically the same thing. I went inside, still feel that discomfort.
About one hour earlier i went outside and felt the smell of dog poop. However it was replaced with smoke from firstwildfires of the year.

8:41 Même du jour. Geologul artist multidisciplinar. Trebuiau să vină ei cu ceva peste. Nimic din ce spun nu rămâne neacoperit.
Este mult mai draconic decât vă puteți închipui. Ieri după ce am postat un link cu diferența dintre burglar și robber, au apărut privighetori (americane, robins) în iarba de sub geamuri. Păreau cam ciudați așa doar țopăind prin iarbă, pentru ore în șir, chiar mă întrebam, dar la un moment dat chiar au zburat.
A fost o perioadă, începând de la Sussex când îmi cântau ăștia, foarte strident, câte 2 luni pe ani, primăvara, mai mult de 8 ore pe zi și mă înnebuneau. Au fost și aici, dar ciudat, anul acesta nu au cântat. Anul acesta am avut ansamblu artistic deasupra.
În cartea (manualul) ninja, este o poveste despre cum un ninja a trezit ciorile ca să păcălească un vameș că e deja dimineața.
La Sussex eram treaz într-o noapte pe la 4 în perioada în care cântau și mă gândeam, oare de ce nu cântă. La un moment dat am auzit un fluierat ușor în grădina vecinilor pe o anumită notă ceea ce i-a trezit pe robins care au început să cânte și au cântat așa toată ziua. Odată aici am auzit ceva similar cu ciorile. La Sussex a fost odată o mare bătaie între două stoluri de ciori care a durat ore în șir.
A și mai e tipa de la 4. Perete în perete, dar deasupra. Azi dimineață la 7 m-a trezit vorbind la telefon în balcon. Vorbește în spaniolă dar arată ca o asiatică. Posibil filipineză fiindcă o minoritate din ei vorbesc spaniola. Ieri a vorbit ore în șir, de obicei vorbește până răgușește și apoi se mai oprește.
Aștia sunt ninja, menirea lor este să păcălească și să sucească mințile, și reușesc. Da, exact ca alba neagra. De fapt țiganii nu sunt tot asiatici? Panteonul Shinto japonez este similar cu cel Hindu din India. Buda a crescut în religia Hindu.
9:20 What made me sick this morning. Two open bags near the rim of the North bin. Exactly where the wind is blowing from. Blue with white paws on. Strangely enough, the smell concentrated inside the apartment.
11:24 The guy who officially cleans the bins on Monday from furniture items from people who move over the weekend came and when i passed the office he was just done with that bin and blew the dust around it.
To escape, i climbed on the alley behind the office and betweet two buildings what do i see. Numerous dog poops and it was stinking badly from the two bins from the upper alley that are now under the heat of the Sun.
Sunday, May 12, 2024
2:15 Got home since 1:20, coincidentally in the same time with one of my neighbors. Had the bad inspiration to go and check the bins. They were 2 or 3 on top of SW bins (it's got a number, nr5). One more on west bin (nr.8). Now my intestinal flora that started to heal after 2 days away switched back to dog.
5:33 PM Slept about 2 hours. Woke up nauseated, with a number of robins, a family i guess, chasing insects in the grass (a new sight). Went and picked one that has been partly whitened by the Sun. I was still in bed when i remembered a 2 weeks of camping when i was a kid, @10 years old, in the Cali-mani mountains.
I was telling Angela. I was not nauseated yesterday after i slept at the hotel.
A bunch of kids, a few adults, among them an geologist from Suceava "the guy who discovered sulfur in the Călimani" with his daughter, about our age, named... Luana (Lou Anna? i don't understand why i remember the name as being a character of Planet of the Apes). BellaTricks?
The camping site was near an octopus tree. There was a dead horse on a hill, and Mikitovici put some horns to it to make it look like an elk and integrate it in a film. I ruined a bit of film while filming the tree by intentionally jerking the camera and zoom, to make it look like an earthquake (subconscious?). We went up hiking in the mountains with only crackers, rahat and lemons, no water.
There is an octopus tree near Cape Meares, here on Oregon coast, however that one was taller and thinner. I think the kids tried to make a treehouse out of it.
The director of the Pioneers' House in Câmpulung, who looked a bit like Sergiu Nicolaescu. The father of Sorin Mihalea, a bit older than me, who looked like Ioan Luchian Mihalea or George Michael. His wife, my 1-4 grade teachers, the one who taught me about Dacian's messenger to the gods, looked like Claudia Cardinale (last two weren't there) etc..
6:09 Stories of yesterday. Friday when we left there was again and old mat at the no dumping place. A big garbage sack, broken near the SE bin. Others. The handywoman came upstairs several times and then she opened the windows. Though mixed with deodorant, a pestilential smell came from there.
After they last vacuumed, before May 1st they left and shut all windows and doors. The woman i saw leaving looked like the mayor of San Francisco, London Breed. After two days with open windows, the smell is still there. This never happened before while they "were here".
On I5 south there was a pickup with an old mat in it. When i got at the Three Rivers Casino, had the most terrible diarrhea, though i was taking pepto bismol for a week (for nausea). But i have not been nauseated after i slept at the hotel.
Last night at 7 Feathers. Angela bought (at the gas station) some sandwiches and fries for us to eat in the car. After 150 miles driven, i had this terrible urge to go to the restroom and could not finish mine. While at the restroom, the janitor started to mop at my feet. Then he came and looked at me while i was washing, and i did not use soap.
Last thing i remember from that drive. There was a guy with a trailer and a boat who was stinking a bit like gas. So i tried to pass him in a passing area, just before I5 at Roseburg.
But i think he accelerated and a car was coming my direction and i hit the brakes at 90 and fell behind (no i did not forget he had a trailer). As i veered behind the trailer, there was a car stationed on the shoulder, one ft in the lane which i barely missed. Ok, the day before.
Also around Roseburg, Friday evening, a weasel i think jumped from the right, i was speeding a bit because of again a huge truck with a boat trailer was pushing from behind. I caught it right between my front wheels, i think it hit the plastic panel under the engine and then it ran awsy (didn't see it in the mirror).
At 7 Feathers. I think i saw inside the driver of that truck (the failed pass). A gang of bikers with the word SOLUTION and then Clean and Sober, on their back. One of them won 700 bucks. Then they left with a big noise. As exiting the parking lot, one of them stopped the traffic for the others to pass (though in the other lane, where there was nobody).
When i left, again went to the restroom in a big hurry and went into a cabin. There was this knob i turned but the green/red sign inside would not change to red (though the one outside did). There was a ton of soapy water under the throne which also distracted me. I was in a hurry so i just turned the knob clockwise (not thinking) and sat there. Then two janitors came and one of them opened the door.
Angela confirmed later in the car. At women's again the sign seen from the cabin won't change to red when know was turned, but she opened and looked at the lock and saw in what position was closed.
Just before entering Roseburg, about 10:30 PM (i guess) there was this semi speeding i was trying to pass and an ambulance ahead of him, blocking the left lane. I passed it and the ambulance switched lanes and then they all went 55. After passing, i veered too in the right lane and i set the to cruise at 74 knowing i was in a 65 area (like everybody else does, you cannot slow the traffic).
I guess during that pass (that was arranged) we missed both the sign saying 60 and while commenting with Angela, the talking GPS warning. Up on a hill there was this car with a reflecting red bar at his back. I slowed a bit, but i think i was still above 70. I am not sure. Then when i realized, at about a quarter mile from it i hit the brakes. I looked at the GPS, it was a 60 area.
As i passed it i saw it was a silver gray State Police Dodge. I looked in the mirror, i saw it starting, i froze (knowing i had a couple of drinks several hours before) however, he/she pulled at the first exit.
After, closer to home. Most hostile drivers, including two blinding, light decorated Globe Trans semis going in the middle lane, passing other semis, speeding big time, close to 80 on an ageing freeway, on my last part of the trip. It was telling Angela, at times it felt like i was in that movie, Duel.
A few years ago just before Christmas there was a bale of hay in my lane near Rice Hill. The next trip to 7 feathers, one of my headlights broke with a flash when i turned them on, about to leave. Going with one headlight (right) only on low beam, because of incoming traffic, after about 10 miles a dear jumped in my lane from the left.
11:00 PM Câți ani are Titi Aur? El știe mai bine. Aș vrea să-l văd ce ar face dacă l-ar urmări pe o autostradă cu hop-uri și denivelări pe la unu noaptea, după 800 km conduși, două TIR-uri luminoase (decorate ca niște pomi de crăciun) conduse de ninja (nu există plural în japoneză) nebuni cu 130 kmh (80 mph).
Poliția? Poliția mă aștepta mai înainte la cotitură, în combinație cu alții, să mă oprească și să mă aresteze.

12:30 AM Ok deci după furtuna de neurotransmițători declanșată mai ales de emoția cauzată de lucrul la proiectul cutremure, sub asaltul zgomotelor sincronizate (mașini, țipete, lătrături) cu creșterea tensiunii dincolo de orice limite, am încercat să mă relaxez însă aveam greață.
O capsulă de cărbune, un pepto-bismol, un pahar de vin cu sulfiți, covrigei sărați, o plimbare relaxantă pe la tomberoane, unde am găsit o singură pungă, verde, deschisă, moale (cauza greței), doi saci prinși sub tomberon de șoferul de la Republic Services, un sac spart la un tomberon, iar unul nu l-am vizitat de loc.
Am deschis știrile și ce văd. Două meme-uri mari și late. Unul și cu chip-ul lui Elon Musk, ceva ce nu se poate verifica (numai ei știu). Unul cu Mikhail Mishustin. Ghici cu cine e legat semantic. Răspunsul, aici.
1:57 Știu că e riscant și poate ridicol să mă bag la așa ceva, dar în cazul lui Florin Piersic recomand doze puțin mai mari de 100 mg pe zi de vitamina C intramuscular (bine, cu ceva lidocaină) și injecții multiple intramusculare cu antibiotice în țesuturi sănătoase cât mai aproape în jurul locului infecției, fără a se depăși doza sistemică.
Se vor transporta la focar prin sistemul limfatic. Nu cred că există infecție care nu se poate trata în felul acesta.
Nu sunt pentru vitamina C în perfuzie sau mai rău, injecții intravenoase, deoarece modifică substanțial ph-ul sângelui până ajunge în țesuturi.

12:21 AM Ok i found enough mental clarity and will tonight to add 3 more columns in my sheet with earthquakes and stuff.
Julian day, Mean anomaly and mean elongation. One more step needed to finish calculating the precise moon distance (center to center) for every eq in Romania since 1940 (I have it input manually for 2008 to 2016).
I would have finished it but the formula in Wikipedia is not pastable so i would have had to write it letter by letter with possible mistakes. I remember i saw it somewhere else but i think i had enough for the night.
Their AI selected an appropriate song for the moment. "I'm so happy cause today i found my friends, they're in my head..."
12:36 found something here... Nevermind, it does not work with svg files... Nevermind. Here it is. I just wrote it manually. Let me check it one more time. It was as complicated as writing a new credit card number on Amazon...
385000.5584 - 20905.3550 cos (M) - 3699.1109 cos (2D - M) - 2955.9676 cos (2D) - 569.9251 cos (2M)
1:32 Made some mistakes, something is not right, got to fix it... Tomorrow.
10:43 Other priorities... Searching for someone...
Didn't happen in a long time. To be bothered by the vibration of a train locomotive. It is like it's synched and presses on my heart... I had palpitations because of it. I'm tired and sleepy, i'm gonna lay down...

5:30 PM As once my guru said. I will have a long life in the sense that my life will be so full of events it would seem longer. After finishing writing a longer entry on my main blog, i had to go (per Angela) to wash and vacuum the car.
When i was about to exit the door, i heard Lady Bugya singing on the radio "paparazzi". On the other side of the door, on the left, high on the lawn, a team of teen and preteen gymnasts presenting all their sexualized body parts, one at a time. Dresses falling showing underwear while they were doing...
I knew there was going to be a show at the carwash too. The guy who scanned my card, barely standing, shaking, looked like... They had to top what i just said about Hope Hicks (never trust a politician who has double initials).
Too bad i don't have time to search for them all.
5:45 The reason i spent hours searching for her today and yesterday... She keeps showing at Chinook Winds, dressed as a tech or something. Could not find her. Could it be the weight gain that prevents it.
5:48 They now yell real loud competing with an ambulance siren as i wanted to go outside to smoke.
6:23 Now they moved in front as the ice-cream van came. It's 55 (6C) degrees outside.
7:27 Yesterday i saw a big sign saying TOBACCO on top of the convenience store across from Red Winds. So i crossed the street and went and looked. On the wall behind the counter they had the largest selection i'v seen so far, but could not see Kent, the much wanted for cigarettes of my teenage years.
Two packs back then cost like a one day wage, several times from the today's retail price in the the US. And were hard to find, only from smugglers. Unaffordable.
There was a willing native American looking woman at the counter whom i asked and after i spelled, Kay, Ee eN Tee, she looked under the counter and pulled a pack marked with a dark band on both sides which in the cigarette packs color code means full flavor. I asked for two and also if she had the lighter version of them which she did not. So i bought 2 packs for 30 bucks, and went and tried one.
Smelling like it, but vaguely remembering of the flavor, they were strong. After inhaling too times, i felt like falling from my feet, pretty much like the same when i re-started smoking about a month ago.
Today i looked closer and the tobacco inside is red brown, not goldenyellow as i knew it since back then. Much more robust, like the coffee, but not as flavored, basically tasting like ash, like all i tried recently. As i read not long ago, the best tobacco leaves (and the most expensive) are Burley and the tops.
8:10 Got sort of hungry, was eating a few crackers, walking casually back and forth when i saw a kid on a bike coming my way then veering in the last moment. Was thinking of smoking a cigarettes, the came back now dressed in pink and stuff looking like Easter bunnies. Though they speak English and Spanish (short phrases) they yell like Japanese kids do, in one or two syllables, with accent on the last.
10:45 That naivete had its own charm as it made them more like us...

2:06 AM I was looking more at Egyptian Women in hieroglyphs when i saw some of them wearing on their head something that reminded me of a ShivaLinga. So i went and searched more and what did i find.
Is this what they mean, the masons, when they say they draw their craft from Ancient Egypt?
10:40 Slept 5 hours last night. I smell weird because i am smoking. Was thinking. How could i have smoked so many years and haven't noticed it?
Got a rude awakening on a forum. If i go there and ask a question, the trolls jump on me. However, besides raising my BP quite a bit, the jump start made me go and search for the answer myself. After a few iterations o found the answer, which is a big step for me in being able to calculate the Moon distance on a certain day.
Just went to smoke a cigarette and what did i see, next to the Aucuba next to my bedroom window. I went to grab the camera to catch the moment, a woman was quicker than me. By the time i went and started the camera which chimes at startup, she was behind, sweet talking to her dog.
And yes, i did study celestial mechanics in college. All i remember though is they were pages with differentials, probably about the three body problem.
I remember prof.Irimiciuc kept telling us he was the second mechanics teacher in Iași, after Mangeron. There was a legend circulating among us students saying that Mangeron did send the equations to NASA that helped made the corrections to Apollo 13 so it can safely return to Earth.
I passed the exam by finishing a non functional gyroscope project that was started by a different student, making it an intuitive demo gyroscope that should probably still be in that lab.
I once met with him and his wife in Copou, and after i recognized and greeted him he made a large bow, a gesture i did not understand.
12:00 Today is the 27th anniversary of Red Wind some 130 miles from here. Angela's got 30 dollars free play, we're heading there. There will be a motorcade on I5 North with vehicles with weird symbolism on LPN surrounding us, beware.
Good thing i liestened to the Jocker and Rocket Man this morning, got rid of a song that was playing in mind for days. Now it's Rocket Man.

Early today when we came back home i found an email sent May 3rd at 3:38 PM from the management basically saying i was in violation of the rental agreement for the last 12 months and subject to termination. However a month prior to that we have received a renewal of the lease (they now call it rental agreement). It is the first time we receive such a warning which is not based on the lease (rental) agreement.
The email was sent after they received the payment for the next month however it contains a document that was generated the day before the email was sent and payment was made. Here is the only page from the rental agreement that deals with late payments.
Here is the payement confirmation that was sent by them 12 hours prior to the email with the violations. Here is the lease renewal offer that was sent to us by email, mail and on the door on April 25.
Here is a screenshot showing 0 balance as of right now but i believe it was there before they sent the email or right after 5:38 AM May 3rd.
12:42 PM Just got en email (on Angela's computer and email) from the management saying this type of warning is normally sent on the 5th and there are no violations.
11:43 "ascuns între coline acoperite de o mantie de sare". Poate d-aia. (Arată cum arăt eu la 64).
Cred că obiceiul ancestral are ceva de a face cu ciclurile agriculturii de subzistență care s-a practicat timp de milenii în România. Un trend, vechi sau nou, nu se curmă ușor.
Dar noi ce suntem. O adunătură de aspirații și adicții pe care uneori, ca de Paști, le numim tradiții.
9 AM. Went to bed after 4, slept 4 hours, plus some in the evening. At the time i went to bed i was already nauseated but too tired to go search for those. Pepto-Bismol works to some extent, but i also ran out of it (i only had a few, abut 10 tablets. I can't believe i didn't order some on Amazon last night, it would have been here by now.
I am addicted for trips to the stores for anything. God knows how much fuel Americans used before Amazon just to get to a store which usually is miles away and buy one item. I opened the back door and a military plane made a big noise. After missing for a couple of days, the blue bag is on top of the lids of the empty bin, it is visible from here, i wanted to show first. Took too charcoals, feeling better but still.
Because the wind is blowing from that direction.
In the mean time (since i took the picture 15 minutes ago) 3 more people came with dogs, to top it.
2:08 PM I didn't know!
Thursday, May 2, 2024
2:27 AM Asta a apărut după ce am vorbit de zodii și gemeni. Cine poate să verifice aceste știri?
8:56 Five hours of sleep. Today is the big day. They pick some of the dirtiest garbage i ever saw. Bins are full of garbage out of bags that has been rained upon. There are bags the size of a human in some. There are dog poops in open bags i threw in there, now covered with bags. While i was asleep i had a nightmare about finding a big dog poop in the shape of a goose liver colored in yellow (fatty liver).
9:00 Did i say something about blues earlier today?
9:17 În topul știrilor din România. S-a surpat o stradă. Nici o grijă, Raed Arafat e pe fază. A apărut prima dată după ce am posta eu despre asta.
9:29 Acum a luat un avânt proaspăt după ce am folosit sintagma calcul biliar. Dolinele (nu am știut) sau surpările de genul acesta se formează unde există roci calcuroase și apesubterane de care am vorbit de asemenea recent. Ele se pot depista. Dovada este că se surpă la comandă, când este nevoie de o știre de uitare.
9:33 Am vorbit despre cel mai murdar loc din casă.
10:30 Nu știu exact ce anume, culorile, lumina, rotunjimile, dar această poză (un meme) sugerează un fund sexy de dimensiuni planetare. Din ce știam eu, Venus ar trebui totuși să fie cea sexy. În ultimul timp (cam de 50 de ani), NASA nu ne dă altceva decât picturi. Pe când niște video-uri?
Apropo, de ce s-ar duce oamenii pe Marte? (dacă ar putea).
10:40 Da, și lumea e condusă de evrei, nu de egipteniiantici și așteptați. Poate cineva să-mi spună la ce s-a așteptat Hamass după ce "au intrat peste evrei la o petrecere deșănțată" și au "răpit pe unii" "care sunt ținuți și acum"?
2:05 After i came from my walk i picked the mail and here came a guy i haven't seen before who yelled something short at me and changed my mood. Tired, distracted, i went and picked one from the grass on the east side, one from near my truck again on the grass and went to throw them and check the bins.
Every time i go towards the SW bin, there is one or two big vehicles making big noises crossing my way. Then i went at the SW bin and on my road i picked one pack of cigarettes and other pieces of garbage from the red mulch.
Tired, absent minded, after a walk in smoke (i had the mask this time) i threw them over the fence, like those who i am criticizing for such a long time. Then i went in there, squeezing and when i got out i saw yet another incarnation of the red headed veteran's daughter coming from the end of the building D and getting into a gray Honda i guess. Then i remembered i saw them again when i finish my smoke before i left.
Then i went to pick a green bag from next to busiest and most visible bin, the North one. I did not realize i could have went around and again i squeezed on the other side, almost tearing my clothes, when a car came and stopped very close, for the mailboxes. On the other side there is on the ground a sack the size of a human, that has been left behind after emptying the bin by the truck (Thursday).
But at least one thing i can tell from my walk. I figured the reason they do so many acts and pranks around me (industrial style) is for the casual observer who need see one or two as he/she passes by.
And one more thing about earthquake predictions, which nails it, but i keep it for myself for now.
2:30 Got a 3 miles rectangular loop for my walk (for some reason can't convince google maps to complete the loop), the only possible one in the area that passes by an elementary school and a kindergarten. Every time i pass the school or kindergarten, a number of cars with significant LPN, people or motorcycles pass between me and it. But today it was special, it was a google car with cameras.
Three vans with the logo Transit comming from different direction at the last intersection in the loop above. There i have to be real careful how i cross because it's a 4 lanes intersection, there is a lot to walk and the light turns green for the left turn before you have a chance to finish crossing.

8:11 Woke up at 7, after 5 hours. Bloated, nauseated. Yesterday i tried something else. Pepto-Bismol. While it reduces some of the smell, bloating and nausea, it is not solving all problems. So i went again and picked one from behind the three, looking like from nr.4 and two small unidentified from the grass east of the building. No more blue or green bags open or otherwise. The bins are unusually full and most of the garbage is loose stuff, with no bags, that has been rained upon.
5:12 Vibrations usually brings stuff from outside. Exactly when we started to eat, the blowers and mowers came. Then i felt the smell. I went and did the rounds and i found an open blue bag with content from two dogs, of about one pound, on the ground near the SW bin.
But that was 2 hours ago. Right now there is an annoying bass probably from a car accompanying "Spanish" music and i felt the smell again. I cracked open the door and am ambulance siren started in the distance. I hit the post button and the bass stopped.
When i did the rounds this morning i had to remove a bag that fell between the bin and the fence at the SW bin. Otherwise when the garbage truck driver removes and empties the bin, the sac would fall and get in the space under and stay there until i go and beg the driver to let me pick them while he lifts the bin.
However someone did a prank and put some yellow dust on the wire fence (looking like pollen) and when i squeezed in there i got in on the back of my jacket and didn't see it until after i did the rounds in the afternoon. Probably the reason why some guys where laughing when i passed by, however if you check they will say they were laughing for another reason.
Many times when i go in casinos people nearby are having loud conversations designed in such way that is like they are talking to me. Sometimes people from the various teams there (security, techs, clean) are using walkie talkies creating the impression the police are there (like in old movies) etc..
Generally everything i say and do is somehow doubled and certainly addressed. Like when i complained about the music, they added the siren. I think is a quantic way of canceling information and a way to keep reminding who's in charge.
10:10 PM Did the rounds. It drizzles. One blue on the ground near SW bin, heavy, apparently closed but stinking real bad. Threw it where i threw the others, on the opposite wall of the bin, next to the wet mat. One green on top of bin lid at the W bin. One... blue on top of the garbage bags at the N bin.
