the sky finally seems to be clearing up after two days of rain and clouds. I don't mind the rain, because it actually keeps people out of the pool in our apartment complex - usually on weekends, it's so noisy because of all the families partying out there. Why did I move into an apartment building with an outdoor pool? someone please tell me why I was so stupid!

but of course the rain in summer means humidity. it's been so sticky outside that it's like an instant perm for my hair - though mine is less curls and more frizz - yuck! time for another haircut!

last night I watched a great movie that I actually had wanted to see when it came out. and when I was reading through posts on [profile] thedailymovie community recently, I read so many positive reviews, that I just had to rent it: The Mist based on the Stephen King novella and directed by screenwriter/director Frank Darabont (who also wrote the screenplay for The Green Mile and The Shawshank Redemption .

my review below )

If anyone has watched this movie, I'd love to know your thoughts. especially if you had read the book. And this just makes me realize that I have got to read more Stephen King. I think I'd better go and find a used bookstore!

in other news, I might be going to see The Dark Knight tomorrow morning with my friend Sandra. I can't wait!!
