Weather Madness

The bad weather missed us, heading north as it came our way. Thankfully, the whole system missed us. We got a little bit of rain in the early morning hours. I watched some of the tv coverage of the devastation last night before going to bed, and I think it gave me nightmares.

On Saturday morning, around 5 a.m., a huge thunderclap shook the entire house. That was scary. DD woke up and didn't want to go back to her bed.

We had a quiet weekend. I watched "Murderball," a documentary about quadriplegic rugby players (I highly recommend it!), and "The Constant Gardener," a movie about drug trials by a pharmaceutical company in Africa, and a woman who tried to expose the company. Rachel Weisz won a best supporting actress Oscar for her role as Tess. It was an interesting movie, but LONG.

Don't even get me started on the season finale of "Battlestar Galactica." They married my Chief off to that stupid whiny Callie, and an entire year somehow passed in the blink of an eye??? I hope the writers know what they're doing. DH & I were like, WTF just happened here? I feel like they have tried to move ahead too quickly.

New episodes don't premiere until October. Sigh.
