This morning I went to church. Just before services started some guy named Allen talked to me about the philosophy of the church. I believe this is the first time that anyone said anything to me at the church.

Afterwards I went over to the Senator to see War of The Worlds. The movie has gotten a lot of bad press due to Tom Cruise going nuts all over the place. Overall, I have to say that the movie was better than expected. I believe this is the first Tom Cruise movie that I have seen where he plays a father. He was very believable in the role. Also in the film was child star, Dakota Fanning. I swear little Ms. Fanning is in almost every movie that requires a cute little girl.

I never read the HG Wells book that the movie is based on nor have I seen the 1953 version of War of The Worlds. However, since I am a fan of old time radio I have listened to an many occasions the Orson Welles version of War of the Worlds. On its own I feel that the 2005 version was pretty good.

When I left out the theatre I saw an unusual sight. I saw three little boys I think they might have been tweens or middle school aged with a very goth looking man dressed in black like a character from a comic book or a male character on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This guy was also wearing a long black coat on a bright and sunny day. It was obviously a case of an older brother taking his kid brother and little friends to the movies against his will. He obviously had much hipper places to go to.

WHAT I AM WEARING:
Today, I have on blue jean shorts with short sleeved tie dyed turquoise and gold top.
