Feels like Summer is here but the nights are still cold which ... is very un-Summer like! Usually the day is HOT and the night is warm that you can't sleep without the AC on half the time ... or if you are lucky the night is cool enough to have the window open. But so far the nights have been pretty cold which is great! I have had the window open and curled up in the blanket or closed with the ceiling an on which also seems to do the trick. But have been waking up to a little scratchy throat which eventually goes away ... I just hope I am not getting sick or something because that would just suck to say the least.
Weekly Update:I have gopher(s) in my yard! They are sure destroying the lawn but my gardener isn't able to catch them. He says its only one gopher but I think its at least 2. However, I don't know how gophers live so he is probably right. Almost every day I see a small fresh mound or hole of disturbed dirt. Traps keep being laid and moved around yet this little bugger avoids them and digs a new hole. Why dig a new hole when the one you had originally is surrounded by grass for you to eat? I had some mushrooms growing and I picked them and threw them in a whole one ... didn't work. One thing I am seeing is a lot of big rocks so its clearing those out! But its gotsa go!
At the movies:
Barely hanging on to #1 is "Solo: A Star Wars Story" with another 29.3 million as it took a huge 65% dip from last weekend. Just about double the average drop nowadays, this film will struggle to break 200 mil at this rate. Word-of-mouth is fair to good still but just not drawing in the numbers as everyone thought it would. Holding on to #2 is "Deadpool 2" with an extra 23.3 mil as it closes in to the 300 mark but still has a bit of a stretch. New at #3 is Adrift with 11.5 mil and close to projections on this one. It may sink sooner than we thought. Hanging in there at #4 is "Avengers: Infinity War" with another 10.4 mil as it hits 640+ mil cume. Rounding off the top 5 is "Book Club" with another 6.8 mil and this chapter and story are about over.
New movies that did not make the top 5:
Two this week struggled along. In at #6 is Upgrade with 4.5 mil ... actually better than expected! Next up is Action Point at #9 with only 2.3 mil. Well below expectations but not by too much.
