RAIN

My joints were screaming -- and I was supposed to catch the last matinee of X-Men: Wolverine with a friend. We both had buckets of rain falling on us as we left different parts of town -- heavy enough that he said he was glad they hadn't started working on his house roof -- might be more hail damage!

If there had been any counter-clockwise clouds, I would have canceled. Instead, we hit Kobe first for dinner, the X-Men and then Star Trek (I really wasn't that interested in Angels & demons or Terminator.) X-Men, as I suspected, was fun in its own way, and Star Trek was a good repeat and ticked two movies off his list for the weekend. I'll either see Adventureland before the end of the holiday, or put it on the Netflix list. Hope people had fun even in the rain!

The X-Men origins was the best choice because it needed the big screen for full appreciation. I'd also recommend big screen for Star Trek 2009 -- even once.

Told you I'd send you rain. You asked for it.

But I like my rain at night! ;^) So heavy that the sleeves of my raincoat filled with water while folding up the umbrella to get into the car.

That hard.

But I was damp dry by the time traffic cleared enough to agree that food first was better than killing ourselves getting to the matinee. Cell phones in their best usage!
