Some of that real life stuff again
I got a job housesitting/watering plants for a friend. It's not really a job job, but at least it's some extra cash.
So for the 3rd and 4th of this month, it was actually clear, there was no smoke, and now it's back. It came back in slowly, like one day you could smell it, and the next day it was like a haze and there was blue sky and everything. Now it's like.. the sky is completely orange again. We had our break, now it's over.
I guess worse than that though is today there's ash. If there's anything more hideous than having to live under a blanket of smoke, it's having ash rain down on you. It's very unnerving. It just gives me this horrible feeling.
On top of that too, the weather suddenly remembered that it's July, so we went from like.. temperatures of 88 and 89, now to temperatures of 110 and 111. Last night, dad and I went to IHOP and their air conditioner was out. That sucked.
I also saw Wall-e, which was very cute. Sometimes it takes me a couple of days to really mull over movies in my head before I decide if I really like them or not. That's only with some though. Something like Iron Man or The Prestige, I know that I love it right away. Otherwise, it takes a few days before I really decide. It took me a couple of days to be disappointed about Indiana Jones. And it took me a couple of days to be fully unnerved by Wall-e.
The stuff with the robots was adorable, don't misunderstand me. They really should have just had a kids movie with just the robots being cute. The rest of it was like a bad dream that you can't wake up from. Without getting into any spoilers here, Earth was, as said by Mr. Voice in the trailer, filled with trash. The sky was orange. It was empty. I hated it. Then the people were on this like 'cruise ship' sort of thing, riding on hover chairs, and they were all fat because no one walked, and they were constantly talking on their viewscreens to other people, even if someone was right next to them.
So, with trying to ignore orange Earth, which is what it's like here, and the brainwashed fat people.. it was a cute movie. Yeah ok, I get that it's an environmental thing, and they're preaching to the choir with me. But this is a kids movie. I would have been traumatized if I had seen that as a kid because it disturbed me as an adult. It was really heavy for a kids movie. Wall-e was adorable. They could have done without the giant tearjerker scene that kids movies always seem to have, but I'll complain about that from every pixar movie, it's why I don't usually like to go. This one actually looked like it was worth seeing. So yeah, I love the little robot, but I wasn't too wild about the movie.
