No wind, warm air.

Hot but cold... so the temps this past week were not terrible but the problem, like most of the time is there are no breezes.  When there are not breezes what may be 75 degrees will feel like over 80.  So when it hits 80 degrees with no breeze, it feels above 85 and that is way warm when it shouldn't be.  The nights are also warmer being 65 but again, no breeze so it feels like low 70's which isn't bad but it could be and feel a LOT cooler but it isn't. What is also a bummer about no wind, the AC kicks in because the air is stagnate and very warm, almost like it's humid but it's not, just no circulation.  So, I guess I'll be seeing another high electric bill again soon.  I  wish solar energy installation was not only cheaper but golf ball proof.  Not sure if it would work on my house being next to a golf course and the high impact of a golf ball hitting one is very likely. 

Weekly Update:
This has been a very long week for me and I'm glad it's kind of over but not really because I think this next coming week will be just a long.  Just that each day seems like an eternity of nothing. They are also the kind of days you can just watch and feel each minute tick by as you sit and stare into the sky or into nothing... When there is nothing to occupy your time it just seems like time is forever which isn't a good thing when you aren't doing anything.  You kind of want the day to be over yet it seems like it takes forever to get there and you want to know when is the monotony going to end! If only I had something to occupy my mind but... blank.  Just blank, even if I think I'm doing something, I'm not or it's not thought-provoking or neuron snapping.  Everything is just simply... blah.

At the movies:
Holding it's spot at #1 is Thor: Love and Thunder with another 46 million and now past the 200 mil cume mark as it makes its way to 300.  It may take more than a week to get there but it will get there. Also holding ground at #2 is Minions: The Rise of Gru with an extra 26 mil as it heads to 300 mil as well.  This may take a couple of weeks but also will get there eventually.  New at #3 is Where the Crawdads Sing with 17 million.  Not a bad number for this film and the timing of it's release. Dipping down to #4 is Top Gun: Maverick with 12 mil as it now hits 600 mil cume.  Won't go much further but that is a great number to end with.  Rounding off the top 5 is Elvis with 7.6 mil as it also hits a milestone of 100 mil at the domestic box office.

New movies that did not make the top 5:
Two show up this week... coming in at #6 with 6.3 million is Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank and didn't quiet hit the mark for a family Summer film. New at #9 but on a more smaller scale (less than1000 runs) is Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris with only 1.9 mil.
