So hot my sweat is sweating.

Wow, Its hot. That sucks, becuase, well to be honest I spent today doing what i wanted, nothing.
Yesterday though, i did it all, went to the driving range with Lana, shopping with Lana, beach with Lana then came home and watched a movie, with Lana.

The jobs are still going, moving on to a new project on monday, hopefully. Also my other one is still in the works.

Its too hot to concentrate, more later.

You Know my Name

According to blogger this is the first post all year. Thats pretty poor of me. I havent been that busy. I just get lazy after work. I come home and zone out watching dvds or playing games.
Anyway, i will be including a lot more in the coming weeks etc. Im going to start reviewing some things books, dvds, comics, movies, etc.
I will also have my huge weekly updates of everything.

Life Update: Well, work is still alright, although i had to stay back today, which sucked beyond sucked. Im going to the gym more, which i like, i can tell its working, if nothing else i feel better, stronger. Still no word back on the other job i applied for but im sure ill hear from them soon.

Review:
A Series of Unfortunate Events: Book the Eighth: The Hostile Hospital.
Its hard to review this book without giving away too much of the plot. If you have heard of these books but never read them, you might think that giving away the plot of a childrens book seems trivial. You are wrong. Although the books might be basic, the plot leaves you wanting to jump from book to book, as questions are answered and new ones are asked.
This book is different in that the children are not with at a foster home of any sort for the first time in the series. Also the narrator and author makes his first 'appearance' in the book. This is also unique in that Count Olaf has his entire entourage together trying to capture the Baudelaire's, which hasnt happened since the very first book.
I think this book holds up quite strongly, possibly being in the top three of the series, partly because it moves away from the trusted formula in some areas, and in those that it sticks too it does it so well.
Mathews Commandment: Read It, if you've read the others.

Songs I'm Listening to:
  • "You know my name" - Chris Cornell
  • "The Ballad of John & Yoko" - The Beatles
  • "Ruby Soho" - Rancid
  • "Smile" - Lilly Allen


Well thats all from me tonight, got to get up early to hit the gym tomorrow.
