It's Supposed to Be January
So...today it reached 83F outside. (28.3C) That tied the record high for the day originally set back in 1937. Friday saw us as 81F. Ugh. It should be around 70F during the day, not over ten degrees higher! It's frustrating to have such heat in January. We don't get enough cool time off from the brutal summer here as it is, now we're tying record high temps? Jeez.
On the better side of things, despite it being hot, humid and muggy out, I woke up with a noticable improvment in my mouth. It pretty much didn't hurt at all today. I didn't even take any tylenol. Yeah! Now I just have to wait until the 6th to get the perm crown put on and I'm done with this tooth. (And then it's three standard fillings to do after that.) I've been working on all of this for about ten months now, so you can see why I just want it to all be done. Almost a year is a long damned time to be constantly in mouth pain, being in and out of the dentist, and spending a ton of money that I didn't really have to spend. I'll be so happy when it's over.
We went to see Underworld: Evolution today. Not bad. A little flashy/jumpy camera work for my taste, but that's the style these days. A lot of gore and "ew" moments but nothing like unwatchable. Just..er...violent I guess you'd say. (Decapitation, lots of blood spray, that kind of thing.) And damn! There's a full-on mega hot sex scene. It was like...woah. Are they really showing that? Naughty. This isn't a movie for kids. It earns it's "R" rating. Overall though, worth seeing if you're into that kind of thing or if you liked the first. They really set it up for a third though so we'll see what comes of it.
Alrighty, just a minor update. Not much else to mention. 'Night.
