Bye Bye RNC

I'm so happy this RNC is over with. Although it didn't affect me personally as I live and work far from it, I know it affected other New Yorkers and I am glad to see them gone gone gone.

Bush's speech was better than expected but did put me to sleep last night. Kudos to all the protesters who made it into the convention. It obviously stirred him up a bit. I was very happy to see Kerry come back at midnight with a strong speech that hit all the right points. Now if he can just keep it up I think he can do this. I was very annoyed that his speech was only broadcast on CNN and then interrupted by Larry King's big ugly smug face towards the end and then cut off by commercials. But Kerry will get more play time in the coming months as I hear they have $50 million in commercials coming. What I'm most excited for is the debates. I can't wait to see Dubya squirm.

We saw Open Water last wknd. Eh-definitely something you can wait for on video. It was just alright. Acting was horrible porn grade acting. It just didn't get to me like I thought it would. Ok, so there's sharks. It just didn't hit that emotional fear that it claimed it did. It does make me think twice about scuba diving/snorkerling trips. I will continue to go on them, but I will be very careful of how they count people.

Don't know what to do for this long weekend. Any suggestions?
