It was an insanely hot day here. If this is any indication what the rest of the summer is going to be like we could be in for a doozie! I was so good today in regards to my work, I stayed focused and didn’t get distracted and got everything I needed to get done in record time. I knew I had to if I wanted to go to Philly.

Unfortunately, that never happened. The heat got to me and my head was not happy. I was tolerating it and planning to go still, but getting there became an issue. I missed a bus that would have gotten me there on time, I couldn’t get a ride to the subway/transit and was forced to call a taxi. At that point though I would not make it in time for dinner, half the people wanted to just eat and go home, so my one friend said it would probably be silly for me to go through all the trouble to get into town just to have a few drinks and turn around and go back home. I agreed, it got canceled.

Nintendo and Dinner night has also been canned for tomorrow, kinda. My friends I’ve been TRYING to do it with for weeks now had to cancel, this time the health issues were on their side! I am going to try and go to dinner and a movie tomorrow with Emily. We want to see “Knocked Up.”

Tonight I watched the movie “The Messengers.” It’s about a family from Chicago that moves into an old farm house where they try to “start over.” Through the movie we learn what the problems they had to start over from were. Their youngest son, a toddler, starts off seeing creepy things. Eventually the older troubled sister does too, but nobody believes her and thinks she’s just trying to force them to move back to the city. Eventually the truth comes out about the house. Most of the movie terrified me. It was creepy, I jumped a lot, I screamed several times too. I was on the edge of my seat worried about what would happen next. Unfortunately for me the end fell flat. It was like they took the easy and predictable way out for me. Still most of the movie was a heck of a ride, so if you want to be scared give it a rent.
