I've been so busy with work stuff, but I'm finally done with the annual evaluations. I competed 46 evals, and on a 1-4 point scale, the average was just a tad above 3, which is what I like. I think most will be happy with their evals. The ones that won't be happy will probably never be happy, that's how such things go. You just can't satisfy everybody, and the trick to staying in this business (nursing management, and maybe nursing and healthcare in general) is to realize you will not make everyone happy.
We went to see Silent Hill a while back. Yes, I know, what the hell am I doing going to a zombie flick, but roomie was just aching to go because it was based on a computer game that he played. And it was actually pretty good. Scarey but not in the usual zombie way. More disturbing really.
I've been thinking of going to Flight 93, but I haven't decided yet. It's been out for a short while and is doing well in the theaters. It's been more than four years and I still don't like going to crowded places, and I still type pages-long instructions to my room mate on what to do if I die in an airplane accident every time I get on a flight. So that movie might have to wait a few. Years.
We decided not to go to Mission Impossible 3. I don't know why but sometimes looking at Tom Cruise just makes me angry. I don't have a problem with Scientology, but he has been so hateful about it. And hate is so easy. Love is hard. Apparently, Mission Impossible.
The Da Vinci Code looks interesting. I read the book, and wonder how much I'll enjoy it knowing the ending. And not just knowing the bit about Jesus and Mary Magdalene. I mean because the director has stayed true to the book's plot development as well as the ending, will I be surprised enough?
I watched a few minutes of reality TV with roomie. I got to watch some really horrible bit involving Florence Henderson getting treated really rudely by a contestant on a reality show (the name of which was so immediately, and thankfully, forgotten). Negative reality shows are disturbing enough, but I hate it when the money draws in stars from the past that I held some weird place for in my heart. I know they have to make money, but really...
