Sick ... yep, that is right. I got sick this week and it was a busy week that being sick did not help one bit. It was definitely a lot of being in a zombie state but I some how made it. What was funny is I went to see a doctor about it on Monday morning and all they did was ... nothing. They were concerned about something completely unrelated. Hey, what about fixing this so I can then move on and not be so miserable?? But with so many meds in my system, I survived for the most part. I did get nausea and I realized I was taking all these meds but no real food! Once I started to eat a little something it got better slowly but yeah, need to remember to eat something once and awhile when you take so much medicine. But they do say starve a cold or something?
Weekly Update:It was a very busy week full of events and outings on top of work and being sick! But managed to get through it all and still remain sick! Yeah me! But at these events I did manage to run into some folks ...
The first event was the Annual Golden Globe Ambassador announcement (sponsored by Fiji Water). The Ambassador(s) are the children of actors/actresses who will be the ones bringing out the awards during the ceremony in January. This year the daughter of the The Rock, Dwayne Johnson, was selected; Simone Garcia Johnson. The Rock himself wasn't there but got some pics with others:
*Zoe Lister-Jones - from the movie "Band Aid" and so very sweet.
*Seth MacFarlane - from the TV show "Family Guy" and pretty nice.
*Sarah Gadon - from "Dracula Untold" and nice.
*Nolan Gould - from "Modern Family" and have met him before YEARS ago, still a cool kid.
*Mandy Moore - actress and singer and incredibly amazing and sweet!
*Logan Shroyer - from "This is Us" and an OK guy.
*Kyra Sedgwick - from "The Closer" and incredibly sweet!
*Keala Settle - from "The Greatest Showman" and so amazing!
*Julia Garner - from "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" and very nice.
*Jason Hall - actor, writer and director and all -around great guy.
*Hong Chau - from "Downsizing" and very sweet.
*Chris Sullivan - from "This is Us" and very nice guy!
*Jamie Bell - best know for "Billy Elliot" and a super cool guy.
Then last Friday went to a special WB "Dunkirk" event which is very nice and pretty relaxing. Wasn't exhausting and saw Christopher Nolan again, the film's director but also caught up with someone else:
*Kenneth Branagh - BIG fan of his since I saw his "Henry V" many years ago and had a chance to chat about it. Extraordinary guy!
At the movies:
As expected the super hero team of Justice League takes the lead with a decent 96 million to open. A bit under par for most super hero films lately and below expectations. Will be interesting to see how it performs during the holiday this week but it may suffer a significant drop. New at #2 is Wonder with a hefty 27.1 mil for this award contender. Solid word-of-mouth and above all expectations. Look for this to reach 100 mil and get a boast this week during the holiday. Drop down to #3 is "Thor: Ragnarok" with another 12.8 mil as it climbs towards 300 mil. Drop down to #4 is "Daddy's Home 2" with another 14.8 mil and may burn out fast. rounding off the top 5 is "Murder on the Orient Express" with another 13.8 mil.
New movies that did not make the top 5:
Just one this week as The Star comes in at #6 with 10 mil to open. Pretty spot-on for expectations, should burn out fast.
