Worlds War

Today I carried out my "threat" and went to War of the Worlds all by my lonesome. I did try to invite a couple of people but with such short notice and such a weird time that I'd chosen I knew things were gonna be grim from the start.

So how was the movie? It rocked. I don't want to give away any of it since that's partly why it was great, the trailers give away very little. The entire movie doesn't feel like your typical blockbuster which is good, mostly. It keeps a fairly good pace except near the end where I thought it slowed down a bit too much while still not giving enough time to answer all the questions needing answers. Once you all see it come talk to me and we can talk about the ending without spoiling everyone else.

I did lead a life beyond the movie today however and in fact before I even saw the movie and before I was even up for my day I bought a new album off of iTunes. That's a very big deal for me since I very rarely ever buy albums, usually just singles. I bought Super Beautiful Monster by Bif Naked and so far I'm very much enjoying it. That purchase combined with my continuing interest in podcasting kept my iTunes player and iPod quite busy for the majority of the day.

Tonight I worked in Electronics with Brittany and Andrew which turned out to be nothing like I expected. It was really busy and we had to cover out of department breaks as well as our own which kinda made things tough for a little while. I swear, I still don't know how much of a store is going to be left by this time next week. The place seems to be deteriorating by the second both physically and mentally...

Tomorrow I have an early shift back at csm starting at 7. Then I have my new store tour at 4 and after work I'm heading out to my parents cabin for some (hopefully) good times on the short Canada Day weekend that I'm getting this year. Stay tuned for a post before I leave tomorrow!
