Still seeing a heat wave going on with no end in sight. Drinking a lot of water but mostly trying to stay indoors with AC! I hate running the AC at home because it is pretty costly but then I will sweat by doing nothing and that seems pretty illogical to me. What if we had personal AC units built into a suit that runs water thus cooling the body ... like the movie "Dune" and still suits. But I guess that isn't really for cooling but more for water supply and re-purposing ... Ok then how about a cooling bed that you lay in like a coffin and then you can nap and stay in a temperature controlled stasis ... but then I guess that can be very unconformable for a lot of people. Well, I am out of ideas then.
Weekly Update:Not much of a week, nothing exciting or worth while happened to think of. Was a normal work week I guess in general. I did try to sleep some and go to bed earlier but that never happened. I think I accidentally fell asleep at the keyboard once not realizing I had done that. I didn't remember what I was doing before and just kept doing what I was doing. I know that didn't make sense but trust me, it does in my head! Well, the struggle continues to get some rest or sleep. I might take a vacation day because I am maxed out.
At the movies:
Pretty soft box office weekend as The Dark Tower takes top honors with only a 19.5 million opening. Reviews are middle of the road but this comic-book adaptation didn't hit. Slightly below expectations but a sign the Summer could be over. Slight drop to #2 is "Dunkirk" with an extra 17.6 mil and slowly down as well. Big drop at #3 is "The Emoji Movie" with another 12.4 mil and quickly getting the sad face. Slight drop to #4 is "Girls Trip" earning 11.4 mil more as it closes in on 100 mil. Reachable for this film but could take a bit more time. New and rounding off the top 5 is Kidnap with 10.2 mil and actually right at expectations.
New movies that did not make the top 5:
Just one but it really was an expansion. In at #8 is Detroit for its 2nd week and earns 7.3 mil, slight below expectations but more of an award contender for the newly formed distribution company.
