Blah blah blah

No school for the kids today. We went to BTH for lunch and to the library. I dropped off the Roald Dahl book that I finished (Boy) and we picked up a bunch of new books. I got Charlie & the Chocolate Factory for both me and Emily. I read it all tonight and it’s pretty good. It’s kind of hard to say which movie followed the book better. Both had their strong points, but I still like the old 70’s version much better.

My weekend was boring. I think I watched 15 to 20 episodes of The Pretender. Plus I watched one tonight. I’m nearly done with season 3, now. I’ve been just deleting them as I finish them since I doubt I’ll ever watch it again. But it’s a great show and I’m enjoying it a lot. I found out that there were two Pretender movies made too, so I’ll have to find those next. There were supposed to be 4 Pretender movies made, but due to bad ratings, they only made 2. But at least the reviews on the 2 are good.

Oh yeah, I finished watching Early Edition a week or so ago. All 4 seasons of it. That was a great show too, even if they couldn’t seem to keep any characters. On all of their season finales, instead of having some great buildup of what was going to come in the next season, they were always lamely coming up with some weak story line to get rid of a character that didn’t want to be on the show anymore.

I put some shelves in Payton’s room over the weekend, which he really needed. He’s pretty happy about that. His room was trashed before because he didn’t have anywhere to put anything. Guess that’s about all I did this weekend. Pretender took up all my time. Stupid TV.
