It is getting colder!  But I like that because as you know, I always say it is easier to get warm than it is to cool down.  Now I wish we just had some rain, than we will be in business not to mention my car getting cleaned ... I hope!  But I am sure the rain will come in another few weeks as we get closer to the holidays and such.  Oh, early reminder that Daylight Saving Time occurs this coming Saturday to Sunday and we get to set the clocks back one hour!  I always like this particular one, the extra hour ... that is how it should always be and who cares if at 12 noon it is pitch black, in 12 years it will be back to normal again!

Weekly Update:
Overall the week itself was kind of quiet but had some busy days and nights.  Thursday night I took Samantha Jo to the 1337 Lounge Live for some fun and an interview.  If the name is not familiar, no worries.  Up and coming actress who was recently in the online series "Mortal Kombat: Legacy Season 2" as Kitana, one of the original characters from the video game that the series is based upon.  She is quiet amazing and nice as well as having a great time at the Lounge.  That pl
ace is simply awesome and fun to just hang out and I am glad I am able to bring guests there to chill out and have fun as well.  Then on Saturday it was the annual Hollygrove Halloween Party for all the foster families.  Everyone had a great time and it is always such a special event because we do family portraits for them which many say each year, that is the only family picture they get because they can't afford real ones.  Later that night was busy as well with a bunch of busy work so I didn't get home till about 11PM and I left that morning from the house at 8AM ... I was tired.

At the movies:
"Gravity" finally falls out of 1st place as the reality comedy Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa  crashes in with an incredible 32 million for its debut.  That crew always seems to do well when they do come out with a movie roughly every 4 years ... probably takes them long to heal up but this one took a different approach of scarring a little kid up for life.  Even though "Gravity" fell to 2nd place this week, it still had a very solid number of 20.3 mil for it's 4th week and JUST shy of 200 mil cume (talking less than $200,000).  Slight drop to #3 is  "Captain Phillips" earning 11.8 mil extra as it climbs the ladder to a potential 100 mil cume domestic.  New at #4 is The Counselor with only 8 mil to open.  Rounding off the top 5 is "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2" gaining another 6.1 mil as it just crosses the 100 mil cume mark after 5 weeks in the top 5.
