July, It's Just Hot

It's July.  It's hot.  I find myself slightly unmotivated to deal with all the things on my to do list.  There's the closet -- always needs attention.  Seems kind of overwhelming, so I move to the desk.  After dealing with what is most pressing, I check my phone.  My kids were harassing me the other day because I had over 1200 messages in my main mailbox on the phone.  I explained that this was just duplicating the ones at home, and it is helpful when I am not AT home.  Besides, I figured out that they automatically delete themselves after about 30 days, so why should I spend time going through that process when it will do it for me eventually.  That little red 1,286 down at the bottom of my screen doesn't bother me.

Seriously, I have to get to my desk today.  Definitely have some deadlines looming.

However, I couldn't help but mention this whole "Sharknado" frenzy.  Did you hear about it?  Or better, did you happen to see it?  I was actually sitting on the couch for the first time in -- okay, since Sunday when I watched Wimbledon -- but flipping through the channels, I saw this "Sharknado" thing on the SyFy channel.  I kind of rolled my eyes, and thought to myself, "surely that isn't a mix between sharks and a tornado."  Kept flipping, and never did find anything to watch.  So yesterday morning, it is all over the news.  Sharknado -- worst movie of all time.  Sharknado -- they spent hundreds of dollars on it, and it looks like five dollars.  Sharknado -- yes, it's exactly what it sounds like.  And I'll be darned if it wasn't about sharks in a tornado that destroys Los Angeles.  Craziest media circus surrounded this deal, ever -- and I couldn't keep up with the puns.  They are running it again, an encore, next week.  Oh.  My.  I am completely content to laugh as I read what others write about it.  I absolutely do not need to see it.

I am working on some cool You Tube videos for tomorrow.  My goodness, there is some unbelievable talent in this world!
