10.5 = 1.0, AI, Sick

I like disaster movies, they entertain me. When I saw the previews for 10.5 starting a month or so ago it looked fantastic, awesome special effects, things blowing up all over the place, great stuff. Well I suffered through 4 hours of it. It sucked. It had some of the worst acting I may have ever seen in a movie. Bo Duke was in it as a middle aged dad, I just wanted to see him jump the General Lee. It sucks seeing him as an old dude. The story lines they had going were way too many, way too sappy and very poorly written. They used a lot of the “24” style of production where you have multiple windows going at once, that was extremely annoying. If anyone else sat through this I would love to know your opinions. The special effects were good, that was it, and unlike most disaster flicks where crisis is averted, this one ends with southern california becoming an island. Total waste of time.

Last night was Big Band night on American Idol. Damn it was boring. I don’t quite understand the reasoning behind having these kids sing all these genres of music when it is all about being a pop star. Didn’t enjoy it one bit. What was up with Paula crying at the end?

I have been home sick the past 2 days. It’s an odd illness where the main problem is I feel extremely weak and achy like you do when you have the flu but I don’t have the other symptoms. Just standing up makes me tired. Hope to kick it soon, feeling ill really gets me down.
