Godzilla Minus One (2023)

Godzilla was a metaphor for whatever the audience wanted it to be, natural or humnan-made disaster.

This movie was about a kamikaze pilot that survived.  Huh?  Wasn't he supposed to die?  Then he survived the first time Godzilla appeared.  Then he survived the second time Godzilla appeared.  The survivor guilt was eating him alive.  Was he going to live or die when Godzilla appeared the third time?

This Godzilla was awesome, especially when it powered up to shoot the radioactive ray.  It would've been great to see the special effect in a movie theater.

I thought the movie would explain why it was called "Godzilla Minus One".  A lot of Japanese brands were named strangely, for example, the clothing store "Niko And...", but the movie never explained.  Oh well...

Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard (2021)

Still very funny with over-the-top action scenes.  The chemistry between Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson was still very good.  They threw in all the action tropes, but after awhile it felt too much.  There were some unnecessary parts, such as the two Interpols arguing.  One Interpol was enough.

Work Life, #4

A squirrel stopped by the office window to ask for peanuts.  Look at that face.  How could I say no?  A coworker determined that it's a girl.  Boss asked me what to name her.  Hmm...

Hello, my name is Peanut.

UPDATE 13 APRIL 2025:  I've decided to name her Peanut.  We could see her mammary glands turning darker, three on each side of the body.  So we think she is a nursing mommy.  We have to feed her now.

UPDATE 16 APRIL 2025:  I've been warned by the company peeps that no feeding wild animals.  Peanut came back three times today outside the window.  She circled back and worth on the windowsills; she stood up to press herself onto the glass, as if to see inside.  She climbed onto a broken tree trunk, as if to get a better view inside.  I kept saying "I'm sorry.  I'm sorry."  😢😭

UPDATE 26 APRIL 2025:  It's been two weeks since we stopped feeding Peanut, but she still came to the office.  Wonder why she didn't give up.  I feel so bad.  Her tail didn't seem as fluffy as before.  😢😭

She stood up to see us!

Please feed me!

UPDATE 13 MAY 2025:  After a month of not feeding, Peanut still came back to visit.  I was happy to see her doing well, even if I was not feeding her, but I was sad that I left her disappointed.

Hm, is anybody home?

Why aren't you feeding me?

Look at my fluffy tail!

Trader Joe's Easter Joe-Joe's review

Easter is almost here.  Pastel colors on bunnies and eggs are everywhere.  I saw these cookies in Trader Joe's, and I just couldn't resist.  They're too cute!







Turned out they were Oreos covered in a thick layer of chocolates.  Too sweet for my taste.  If I wanted Oreos, I'd get Oreos.
