He's Just Not That Into You

Oh man, I loved this movie! PG-13 even! Star-studded! And (mostly) a good ending.

I adore movies that intertwine people. Crash, Vantage Point. I just love the whole "it's a small world after all" theme. It's so true.

The thing I didn't like about this movie? Drew Barrymore's bit part (c'mon, she's Drew Barrymore...give the girl a plot). And Jennifer Aniston looked old (sorry, Jen, you know I love you but your makeup artist in this movie should be fired). And I did NOT like Scarlet Johannson's skeezy part. Ugh.

My favorite part? Ginnifer Godwin (that's her name right? From Walk the Line?) reminded me SO much of myself in high school - and not in a good way. But I felt for her from that deep place in my heart. I was embarrassed when she was embarrassed. I was sad when she was sad. And I was happy when she was excited or happy.

Anyway, I enjoyed the movie with my friend, Monica. It was nice to have an adult conversation, that's for sure. Moose oogled her all night; saying "hi" in his cute voice, touching her feet and face, laying on her or putting his feet on her. He's a sucker for a brunette. Then he fell asleep at 8:30 - poor guy hardly opened his eyes as I was brushing his teeth (much nicer than screaming, though).

Yay for a good night with pizza, a sweet son and a good friend. And a good movie.

Hi! Popping over to visit from SITS. You were on roll call ahead of me today.

Sounds like a fun movie - I'll catch it on HBO hopefully.

Your family is precious and congrats on your upcoming arrival! I have my 1st granddaughter due at the end of July. I only have one son, and they had a boy almost 2 years ago, so these two grandbabies are probably gonna be it for me!

Well, just wanted to swing by and say hello - have a great weekend!!

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
