Fun weekend

Wow, what a weekend. I drove up to Dallas Saturday morning to see friends and hang out for the Fourth, and a good time was had by all. We got into the whisky Sunday night and played a four- or five-hour game of Truth or Dare that was really just Dare, about which I will say no more. I actually got a little sun at the pool that afternoon, too, which is too rare lately.

Saw War of the Worlds Saturday night. I liked how faithful to the book it was, even in the ending, and the effects were as impressive as you'd expect. It's a testament to his acting ability that it was easy to forget Tom Cruise's recent downward spiral and get emotionally invested in his character. This has been a great summer for movie fans so far.
