Level Of Difficulty at Work: 5 out of 10 (wee no power!)
NapTime During Lunch: none.
Silly blackouts. And silly PG&E, i guess the northeast part of frisco was all blacked out. We had battery powered lamps n what not at work. And stairs! Flights n flights of stairs! Nothing went on the inside though, nobody was going nowhere. It was dark n gloomy, the building was on emergency power generators though. And as the bossman i was the go-around guy.. go here.. go there.. go upstairs, downstairs.. lala. I guess the power went out at around 6pm saturday. PG&E said that it'll fix it by midnight.. then 3am.. then 7am.. then 11am.. then 3pm.. then 7pm.. then i left work..
Roxanne came up and we watched the Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. We didn't like it. There were a number of things wrong. The final battle was two smaller battles?, frodo n sam sleeps alot (together, subtly). The kinship of the four hobbits almost turns gay (lots of crying for each other). The end part dragged super l-o-n-g. And for some bits it seemed like somekind of Celtic Dance video. To me the 3rd of the trilogy, was like when your writing a long essay and at the end of it your getting tired and you start to not care about what you write and say.. 'ahh screw it' and print it out.. Thats how it felt like on this section. Don't get me wrong, the details, the cinematography, the action was excellent. But the way it was presented was like bangbang ok done.. the end.. It left somethings unanswered.
It's like the matrix in which people didn't like it 'cuz they weren't told things. But the difference in the matrix and the Lord of the rings is that in the Matrix everything is inferred, it's deducted. In the language that deals with fate and destiny it's told but not in-your-face told.. The lord of the rings it ends, and it's like what happens to this, or that, or these people.. For me it didn't suck, but it wasn't all that. I just wished it was told a little different, i wish there was more magic, this is middle earth, dungeons and dragons type stuff, they had it on the other two parts, whataboutthisone?
