Been a slow week in general with not a whole lot going on.  I was pretty idle and then when I searched for images of idleness, I kept finding ones of people sleeping ... I thought being idle was not doing anything but I didn't know it also included sleeping!  Have I been missing out when I am not doing anything and waiting to do so something?  I could have been, dare I say, napping?!  Well that is a new revelation, I thought being idle just meant you were kind of not doing anything and sort of waiting or standing by.  Like how your car is idle as you wait to hit it into drive and be on your way.

Weekly Update:
The week was pretty boring but the weekend ending fairly nice.  Did the 2nd and final round of the clue testing for the upcoming Minnie's Moonlight Madness.  The actual event will happen in about 2 weeks and that will be a very late night, coming back sometime after 1AM.  But this time stayed in the offices and conference rooms to do what they call "paper" clues.  These are just clues on a piece of paper you have to figure out while "observation" clues are things you physically have to go into the area of the park to figure out.  Then on Saturday night had a game night at a local pizza place.  Learned a couple of new games but one I have seen and tried was "Villainous."  This is based on Disney movie villains such as Scar from Lion King and Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty.  I played Ratigan from The Great Mouse Detective and it was a lot of fun.  Goal is to do something specific based on your character and I had to either put the robot queen in place and in power (like he was trying to do in the movie) but if that got destroyed, I turn angry and have to kill Basil!  It was just a well thought out and designed game with great artwork.

At the movies:
Bad boys, bad boys, Bad Boys for Life sings it's way to #1 this weekend with a hefty 59.2 million to open!  Great number for 1) January and 2) being a non-award film among-st all the award re-releasing and expansions.  Not too much word-of-mouth on this so unlikely this film will carry to far but will easily reach and break 100 mil cume at least.  New at #2 is Dolittle with 22.5 mil to open and a little below expectations.  Also not a lot of buzz on this film and very unlikely will reach the 100 mil mark.  Drop down to #3 is "1917" with another 22.1 mil and still getting positive feedback.  On track to break 100 mil probably in another two weeks.  Hanging on to #4 is "Jumanji: The Next Level" with 9.6 mil as it closes in on 300 mil but at this current rate will fall shy of it.  Rounding off the top 5 is "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" with another 8.4 mil as it is inches away from 500 mil and could also get that in another 2 to 3 weeks.
