Another heat wave is upon us, more humidity! We continue to suffer from the heat, close to 100 degrees which is kind of semi-normal. But this humidity is not! We are not that kind of area that gets this kind of weather. The air is so heavy and thick to breath, you have to shower a few times a day if you keep going out. It really is miserable weather. The nights are cooling down but not till way later like after 9 PM which is also unusual. The temps drop to the 70's at night which is still a little bit warmer than normal but the big thing, the humidity cuts away so that is the big saving grace there. But as mentioned before, all that water we received earlier this year, a lot of that has dried up already and I am sure we are back to almost a drought situation or will be soon.
Weekly Update:So the other day I was watching this video and the background song was so catchy. Now it was in Chinese but the tune was very mesmerizing to me! So, I found it and bought it on iTunes and its called Sorry Boss by Namewee. I don't know what they are saying but who cares, the tune is very toe-tapping as they would say and I can listen to it over and over again! I heard another of their songs, its almost like an alternative pop band but in Chinese. I guess I would compare it to like Blink meets Maroon 5? I don't know but I do love this song.
At the movies:No big surprises this week but some movies did fall short. Still holding ground at #1 is "Dunkirk" with another 28.1 mil as it just surpasses the 100 mil cume. Still solid reviews overall and still an award contender this season. New at #2 is The Emoji Movie earning 25.7 mil and about on target. Reviews are poor on this so could be a very quick run. New at #3 is Atomic Blonde with 18.6 mil, slightly below expectations but not by much. Good reviews so it might have a bit more legs to run on. Holding at #4 is "Spider-Man: Homecoming" with another 13.5 mil as it closes in at 300 mil. Still a little bit to go but should see it within the next 2 weeks if not less. Rounding off the top 5 is "War for the Planet of the Apes" with another 10.4 mil as it reached 100 mil cume recently and may drop out very soon.
