I'm feeling fantastic. The past week or so has been wonderful in regards to my sleep, work, and energy levels. I was bummed to have to work yesterday (Saturday) but the day went well. It's becoming more and more difficult to work for the Red Cross. It's easy money, especially in the summer but the administration is not up to par. I'm on probation because I haven't taken a class that's rarely offered in Iowa. Shame on me.
It's lazy but Gavin and I are making a habit of watching movies for entertainment. I watched "Nebraska". It's completely in black and white. Older man who's lost his independence due to old age thinks he's won a sweepstakes and is adamant to go to Nebraska to claim it. The story brings up family issues and history. It was OK, I'm not entirely sure why it won awards. "Gravity" was very good. They did well with the psychology of the matter. As I stated on Facebook, I do not want to be an astronaut. It seems pretty far-fetched that she survived.
We also saw "Jurassic World" not too long ago. It was good. I read about the movie and learned they made a point to make it seem like it follows the first movie and doesn't refer to any of the other two that were created (and bombed). I didn't like the choice of the main female actress (Dallas Bryce Howard). I think it's because she's played negative roles in other movies. And the fact she ran around all the time in high heels? What bullshit. You know damn well she would have twisted her ankle pretty damn quick and a dinosaur would have eaten her.
I spent time today going through more boxes. I still have a lot of paperwork to sort through. It gets really boring. I did get pictures and stuff hung up. I think the placement looks good. It was also therapeutic to remove someone's picture from some of the frames and rip them up.
I thought I had more to report on but I really don't. But hey, I blogged again.
Oh, yes Happy Father's Day!
I'm glad you were/area feeling fantastic. I don't hear that from you very often. I hope it continues. Sorry, we didn't see each other this past weekend. I'm not sure about this weekend either, even though I know you're coming this way. It's a long story, we'll see.
ReplyDelete"Nebraska" doesn't sound like it'd float my boat. "Gravity" looked stupid to me, but everyone raves about it, so I guess I'll have to see it eventually. "Jurassic World" was okay. I guess my expectations were higher than what was delivered. I liked it, but I wasn't in love with it.
I get to play the game of unpacking and sorting too. It's going to take awhile. I have to keep up with my homework, get the apartment cleaned up, etc. before I enjoy the unpacking and arranging. You had a head start, so you should be done before me!
