Weekend

The weather over the weekend was a drag from start to finish. This time of year just sucks in NJ, and it's not going to get better any time soon. It hasn't even snowed yet!
I started off the gray, dreary, wet, and cold morning by listening to SRV, loudly, on the way to work. No better way to get the day started off on the right foot. Or, at least, "a" foot, as I would have been inclined to sleep in bed all day.
I went to see two movies this weekend. I had to force myself out of the apartment friday night, as I was going stir crazy, and wound up seeing "Ocean's 12."
It wasn't as good as the remake of the original, but it certainly had its moments. There's a great cameo and an even better "cameo," but I don't want to spoil the surprise.
I also saw "Finding Neverland" on Saturday evening. Johnny Depp nailed the role as JM Barrie. I find it kind of annoying how these "biopics" bend the truth in order to make a better story, but I guess that's how it's done. My griping aside, it was a great movie that makes you want to dig out the imagination from wherever you've hidden it and play in the garden. It was nice to see something completely devoid of cynicism for a change.
