Did I see some rain?? Are we heading into our traditional raining season (despite not getting it last year)?? We need the rain but will we get enough? My car needs a wash! But the rain we received was early in the morning and very little, just enough to get the ground wet. But I just hope it is the start of bigger and better dark clouds. Kind of funny hoping for rainy weather but when you live in a desert, you want the water and lots of it otherwise everything just dries up and dies. I just hope we are not in store for another dry winter because it is such an issue and problem that has been going on for the past 20 years in Southern California that it will take probably 5 years of good rainy seasons to recover from it, probably more as the population keeps growing the rate it does.
Weekly Update:What in the world did I do this week?? I don't think I did anything ... Tuesday was nice, no traffic anywhere due to Veteran's Day. Kind of weird having it on a Tuesday rather than a Monday to make a three day week of it for people but at the same time, it is kind of nice to have a little broken up week. I found this cute and inspiring picture which is just to the side ... looks like veterans on a hill with a younger generation saluting them but what I find funny is the quote they choose to use for it ... "Never was so much owed by so many to so few ... " by Winston Churchill, the prime minister of the United Kingdom during World War II. A British quote used for a US image. I know they are allies but still, we couldn't find a US persons quote to use? But thanks to all vets ... they deserve more than just a day.
At the movies:
Not to dumb to take the crown this weekend as "Dumb and Dumber To" earns the #1 spot with 38.1 for it's debut. Just above expectations and word-of-mouth is fair on it. Could potentially crack the 100 mil mark when it is said and done too. Holding ground at #2 is "Big Hero 6" with 36 mil more and has broken the 100 mil ceiling as expected with a nice 111.7 mil cume so far. Potentially 200 mil? Also holding ground is "Interstellar" with another 29.2 mil and it is just shy of 100 mil but should hit it by Tuesday the latest. New at #4 is "Beyond the Lights" with 6.5 mil and almost spot on for expectations. Rounding off the top 5 is "Gone Girl" with 4.6 mil and hanging in the overall top 10 for the last 7 weeks in release!
