The weather today is what they in the weather business call "the kitchen sink". If you were to look outside your window here you would see the snow mixing with the mud, the grass and the puddles that are forming from the slow rain that will any second now become snow yet again.

I love the winter season, don't get me wrong, but it's February and this snow, to rain, to snow, to ice, to God knows what weather is getting on my last nerve. I am ready for spring and the warmth that comes with it. It won't be summer's weather, warm and humid, instead that mild and wet weather with the smell of rain in the air. I love that smell, after a light rain falls.

This weekend has brought some good entertainment to my life. Friday night I watched "A Diary of a Mad Black Woman", which was very good. I have always liked Tyler Perry's work. Saturday night I enjoyed the production "Our Town" on the live stage of a local school. The show is very powerful in its messages about living life to its fullest and loving every minute of it. Today brings myself to the movie "Die Another Day" which one of my favorite James Bond movies. I was supposed to see "Slumdog Millionaire" but my aunt wouldn't have it. I was encroaching on her "girl's afternoon". Oh well, that's the way life went and thats fine.

Typing about movies, the Academy Awards are tonight and I plan on enjoying the full show this year. I could not say who has been nominated for what, or who should win because I have seen very few of the movies nominated for anything. I wish the best of luck to my fellow actors, and cannot wait for the events that go along with the show.

What a very long post this has turned into.
