Clearance Sale Puppy

Last night Joshua and I watched Marley & Me. There were some seriously funny lines in that thing that I would love to be able to quote. However, that would involve having to watch it again and I AM NOT going to do that to myself.

Now for people who know me in real life I need to clarify something. I am a crier in my reality. I have a hard time holding it together during conflict and when I'm passionate about something I very often end up in tears. However. I do not cry in movies. When I saw Hope Floats with my cousin who had just lost her mother - nothing. My Girl got one fully formed tear but that is it. I just don't cry during movies.

Until last night. I spent the last 20 minutes of this movie bawling like someone punched me in the face. I don't mean tears running down my face, I mean ugly crying with sounds. So as much as I would love to pull out some of the very witty lines from the movie I don't think my dignity can take another viewing.

If Only I Loved Sci Fi

Joshua and I watched a movie last night that an acquaintance recommended - Serenity. I really wish I liked that genre of film because the writing was witty and there were some great one liners.

It would be the perfect film for college friends to obsess about and constantly quote to each other. You'd hear people saying "I'm a leaf in the wind" and "You best make peace with your dear and fluffy lord." Kind of like in my friend group you heard "P.C. Load Letter?" or "Ummmm. Yeeeeah. I'm gonna have to ask you to go ahead and come in on Saturday."

I would actually really love to read this script because I don't think I can sit through the science fiction plot again but I'd love to get another crack at catching some of the humor buried in the dialogue.
