I have spent the last 24 hours not acting my age. Shocking I know. But, truth is when the opportunity to ditch the responsibilities of running errands, banishing bad dreams, and laundry presented itself, I took it. Thanks to the rent-a-hubby's stellar baby sitting skills of sleeping boys, I indulged in a girls night out midnight showing of Eclipse. (Stop the snickering. And yes, I heard you snort out that laugh) Admittedly, I waited in line 200 people long, six people deep for a hour to glimpse the latest teen movie phenomena. And get this, I was
not the oldest person in line, or the weirdest. Some of these ladies were down right disturbing in their "Team Jacob/Edward" attire, discussing stories of the characters as if they were their own grandchildren. I just want Edward to comb his hair. Is that too much to ask? I sported my most comfy pajamas on the off chance I turned into a pumpkin after 11pm. Which, surprisingly, I didn't.
After a whole 45 minutes of sleep, the boys and I stumbled our way here on Wednesday morning
I return to my reality on Thursday morning, but for now I will leave you with these musical words of genius from a country singer I can't recall...
"Toes in the water, Toes in the sand, not a worry in the world, a cold drink in my hand. Life is good today."
"Life is good today."
i think i know that place!
ReplyDeleteYou probabbly do... it's one of the Plymouth beaches. I'm making it my mission this year hit as many ponds and beaches as we can this summer. Even if it's just for a nap. -J
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, but HOW WAS THE MOVIE?
ReplyDeleteNot that I, ahem, care or anything...
Cristie- Movie was...dare I say it, good! Reasonably true to the book, and much easier to follow than the first two movies if you haven't read the books. Most importantly, it was die hard fans, so NO ONE talked, got up to pee, or had to explain what was going on for anyone else. Oh, and there was none of that WHHHOOOO!!! screamin' from the teenie boppers in front. Nice for a change. But Edward, he still needs a comb.
