Hot Summer Night

Thursday, June 28th, 2001

Cat meows at my feet, whining forever. I’m in a dark room lighted only by the glow of a monitor. The fans are blowing full force, and the desert night is not chilly as it should be. Yesterday, I was rummaging through some of my old notes, and found a bunch of cheesy stuff I wrote a while back (circa 1995), I probably will view this web-journal with the same regard, someday, but oh well I’m having fun. Haven’t made plans for 4th of July yet.

enter monsoon

Well monsoon season is here in Tucson. There was a really cool “ring of fire” ablaze on top of the Santa Catalinas on Thursday night. Quite surreal. The summer is still sizzling, but the monsoon rain mitigates it, which is refreshing. Currently, not much is going on except for work. May be planning a statewide road trip to visit my hometown sometime in September.

Weekend in Metropolis

Superman DVD Series. Watched II and III. Could tell how much I grew between each movie when I viewed them originally as a kid, because it kept getting more farcical…New director = bad script? Or the fact that IV’s budget got slashed during the making perhaps was the coup de grace that ended the series (for now, until the torch is passed to a new generation to continue) Heheh…we all know Hollywood becomes myopic when it portrays computers in the big picture, and Superman III was the classic example of that.
