"The weather outside is frightful ... " wait a minute!! Its freak'n sunny and warm outside here! Where is my winter rain? Where is the below 50 degree weather? WHERE?! Last year was a summer-winter and it looks like this makes it two in a row. Global Warming is true and its here folks. Deny it all you want but the signs and proof are out there. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!Weekly Update:
This past week was great for me, staying up late and sleeping in. I miss that and its just nice having an extended time of that (more than just the weekend). I did have to work one day last week however, was out of there just after noon. Sure was boring, no calls, hardly any e-mails, just nothing to do ... aaaahhhh. But tomorrow its back to the "grind stone" so to speak but at leasts its already a short week before the weekend!!! But all-in-all I think my batteries are recharged for the new year.
At the movies:
Spend another "Night at The Museum" as it takes the New Year crown for 2007 in its 2nd week of release with an additional 46.7 million and a cume well over 100 mil already! Hanging on to #2 is Will Smith's "Pursuit of Happyness" with another 24.7 mil and also breaking the 100 mil mark already. Hanging on to #3 is "Dreamgirls" with 18.7 mil and already taking a dive as it expanded this past week to more locations. When a movie expands by over 800% and suffers a 40% drop, bad news. In at #4 is "Charlotte's Web" with an extra 15 mil. Holding at #5 is "The Good Shepherd" with 14.3 mil and struggling to make the 50 mil mark. No big movies opened this week, just some very limited and smaller indie or Oscar-run films to make it for qualifications.
