Erin and I watched The Mummy last night. It was an ok movie, though it had me scratching my head pretty early on. If you haven’t seen it, you might want to skip to the next paragraph. Anyways, first off, the priest (Imhotep) didn’t seem to be an evil guy when they mummified him. So, they cursed him to become very evil? I’m not sure I follow that logic. Plus, they include all kinds of invincibility and special powers in case he’s ever resurrected. How is this a curse? I’m sorry, but if I’m really upset at a guy for killing my pharaoh, I’m just going to have him tortured to death, and buried in pieces (aren’t I violent?). Wasn’t mummification supposed to be a privilege? Still, if you suspend the disbelief, it wasn’t a bad movie.
I also watched The Sopranos again last night. I missed last weeks episode, but I managed to catch this weeks. I’m not sure what it is that keeps me coming back for more, but it is certainly entertaining. I think it’s because the characters are so believable or something. I might have to borrow Dave’s DVD boxed set of the first season at some point.
I’ve gone out for lunch every day this week so far, and there’s no end in sight. I far prefer bringing my lunch, but at least I’ve got the option go out for lunch (there sure are lots of restaurants downtown).
Well, here it is, 1:00, and this has been sitting open since this morning, so I guess I should slap a Simpsons quote on this entry and be done with it:
