Humid?! Fantastic!!

The weekend didn’t start well. The minute I arrived to my room I was assaulted by the heat in it. Opening the door to my room was like opening a hot oven. The only difference is that the walls and the floor were slippery with condensation. HUMID ROOM ALERT. The maid left my balcony’s door open, and that explained the humidity. Chanting in rage “stupid, stupid, stupid” I went to the air conditioner to switch it on. Ten minutes later I discovered the real catastrophe: the AC is out of order. No AC for the weekend, what a nightmare. Luckily for me, we have a spare room, and the headache was limited to moving my pillow, duvet, ear plugs, book, mobile charger, mobile, prayer mat & clothes and myself to there every night.

The rest of the weekend was not so gloomy. I managed to read Forbes of all the magazines I was supposed to read. Big accomplishment! Ok, I didn’t really read Forbes, but I did read the cover page, looked at the pictures, and read some captions. It’s still an accomplishment!

I took my nephew (Bader) with me to watch Fantastic Four (Ioan Gruffudd, Jessica Alba and Chris Evans). What a disappointing movie. It’s true I was not expecting Oscar winning performances, but I did expect some acting. I also expected a plot and some lines. Ioan should quit acting. He definitely doesn’t have the looks nor the talent. Mr. Fantastic was a miserable sad character. Jessica, well I never thought of her as a talented actress, but I like her. I always liked her, and all because she looks so like my lovely niece Zain. The Invisible Girl had some charm, but should have been called the Robot Girl! As for Chris, he can do a couple of more movies, as long as they are funny (I can’t see him doing a Tom Cruise in Few Good Men). All in all, I was happy I took popcorn even though I was full. Popcorn was more entertaining than the main feature!! I should note that Bader liked the movie. But then what does he know!!
