After spending the entire day yesterday CLEANING the house (it feels great - hopefully today I'll get up Christmas) I decided to treat myself to this fabulous film - Meryl Streep was amazing, just amazing. Yes, just me, at the Sugarhouse dollar theater. I actually don't mind going to movies by myself, especially on a weeknight when the theater is practically empty and I can take my shoes off, put my feet up, and stretch out across three seats while I laugh out-loud at the funny parts and even shed a tear or two during the tender scenes.
Now that the year is coming to a close, I think I've seen maybe FIVE movies total in the theater - pathetic - especially when I know I've missed some great independents at the Broadway, and also knowing that of those five, two or three were with the kids. So, I'm just going to start doing this more often because great films are released monthly and by the time I get Chris to go see them with me, they're already out on DVD and I've missed the theater experience! If anyone out there wants to be my movie buddy, call me and we'll start seeing movies once a month - I think it's something I need :-).

I so wish I could have gone with you! I'd love to go, maybe a matinee, or Thursday nights? Liza's Christmas wish just cracks me up.
me me me... oh wait. baby. damn. how about in a few months when the feedings are more regular and spread out? I'm sick of watching movies on my teeny tv from the redbox...
I'd love to! Next time you go-call or text me.
I really loved it as well. Besides the wonderful humor, I loved the tenderness and sincerity of their relationship (Julia's.) Happy Friday! : )
I knew you'd love it. Oh I wish I could have pulled it off...darn carpools! Next time.
