Quaking in my boots
Good lord. Our electric bill will be sky high this month. It's goddam 98 degrees today. I can't handle this. I decided to try a new tactic. Instead of opening all the windows and letting all the hot air in - I closed all the windows and blinds so it's dark, and turned on the air. Not AC - just air. blech. I hope to god the baby and I don't suffocate and die in here. If you don't get an email from me, call 911....

Last night we hunkered down with our spoons and bowls of ice cream and watched 10.5 - the newest disaster movie. And it was just that. A disaster. I totally fell asleep. Growing up in earthquake central, I remember all the drills we used to have at school for when earthquakes happened. Basically get under a desk or stand in a doorway - cause those places will likely protect you the best. Meanwhile on this stupid movie people are just running around like maniacs.

One of the stars was John Schnieder aka Bo Duke from Dukes of Hazard. I kept waiting for him to jump into his car instead of opening the door. He is also known as "Superman's dad" on Smallville. A show so boring it was abandonded from my viewing schedule years ago. Speaking of earthquakes and Superman, I will never forget the Superman movie when there was an earthquake and Lois was buried alive in her car. That totally freaked me out. I was always worried that was going to happen to me.

Anyway - this movie was so bad. The use of models was so obvious I thought they could have done a better job. I was waiting for a rubber suited Godzilla to show up.
