It rained most of the day today. Not pouring, just drizzly. But enough to make outdoor activities no fun and driving treacherous. We spent most of the day indoors. But that is okay, me and Courage both have lots of studying to do. As long as the BF is close by, she is happy, so all is well.
At about 7:30am this morning, the electricity went off at the hotel. A few minutes after that an argument broke out between the couple across the hall. The place was dead quiet with no air conditioners humming, no hairdryers, no t.v.s. I could hear every word the woman yelled at her husband (boyfriend???). He had done something that really ticked her off and she was letting him have it! At first, I thought she had caught him having an affair. But as the words and threats kept coming, it was obvious he had gambled and evidently he had promised NOT to gamble on this trip. Whew! Finally, after about 15 minutes, the electricity came back on and drowned them out. We had dinner at Texas Roadhouse and the food there was delicious and priced very affordable! We had ribs, grilled shrimp, steak and pork chops. Yum! Yum! I highly recommend this restaurant.
We went to the movies (yes, again. There really isn't much to do in Jacksonville, N.C.). We saw The Happening, M. Night Shyamalan's latest endeavor. I advise you, do not waste your money on seeing this movie at the theater. Wait until it comes to your local 'Dollar Movie' theater or wait until it shows up in the REDBOX machine at Walmart where you can rent it for $.99. Sorry, Mr. Shyamalan, your new movie get a thumbs down.
