The Week In Review

Went back to work this week, and quite frankly just in time, Not that two weeks off isnt nice. It's just that sometimes it is less stressful dealing with other peoples emergency then dealing with a toddler, a 4 month old princess and their handler. Dont get me wrong I love my family with all of my being but as I sit here listening to Princess Rufflebutt scream as she fights off the sleep monsters at 11 pm I find myself praying for the tones to a 2 alarm fire to drop so I can rush out and jump into the engine. On the other hand sometimes it is easier to deal with the zoo that is my home instead of some hysterical person who caught their dinner on fire and felt it necessary to call out the fire brigade to put it out. How stupid do you have to feel when 12 fully geared firefighters rush up your yard with hoses and axes for a burnt porkchop?

Now for the wasters of my time and brain cells.
Movie- I am by no means a big Star Trek fan. I dug The Next Generation, mostly because of counselor Troi, but I was never into the old school series. With that said I went to see the new movie with my dad and his buddy who are old school trekkies. Got to tell you little crickets that was a hell of a movie. It was probably one of the best movies I have seen in awhile, it was intense, well written, funny, and visually stunning. Sorry if I cant write a 2 page essay on the awesomeness of this movie. Plain and simple it was good. According to the old trekkies there was only 2 things they screwed up on. 1 being that Shatner wasnt in it and 2 I aint telling you. On the other side of the coin, I snuck in to see a lil bit of Wolverine, now granted I only watched about 5 minutes of it but what I did see wasnt all that impressive. Sorry guys, it pains me to say it but the movie did not grab me and make me want to stay in the shadows of the theater watching one of my favorite comic heroes of all time. I will give you my full thoughts on Wolvie when it comes out on dvd.
