Today I was leaving a store and as I was leaving a mother was coming in with her sons ... not one, not two, not three, but four teenage boys! I ended up holding the door for them and each and every one of them said thank you ... with no prompting from their mother. It was so nice to see. I hope my kids are as polite as these four were.
(Wait ... did I just write about manners?! Oh man I'm old)
I'm watching Practical Magic right now. I'm such a sucker for chick flicks. I love how I can just check out, turn my brain off, and watch. In my opinion this one is a classic ~ Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman ~ doesn't get much better. And really, I think we all want to believe that there is a little magic out there. There was just a scene where Sandra Bullock was wearing socks with heals ... I sincerely hope that is a fashion statement that doesn't come back!
Stemming from the above ... the reason I chose Practical Magic for tonight's guilty pleasure is I have the soundtrack playing in my car right now. You might be thinking 'soundtrack? who buys soundtracks?' ~ I used to buy them all the time (you know, when buying CDs was still cool). I love listening to them and remembering the part in the movie to which it is connected. My personal favorite on this soundtrack is Joni Mitchell's 'A Case of You'. I can't help but sing along.
I want chips right now. I am not even hungry. This is the inner battle I have multiple times per day. Me want food ~ Me no need food. Its so annoying. Does anyone else have this battle? There was no battle when I was pregnant ... it went like this: Me want food ~ Me get food. But its time for me to start eating better and start exercising. I know these are two things I need to do ... but why can't I get off the couch? I'd love to know some tricks, got any?
That's it for now. Back to the movie and then the to-do list (which is ridiculously long). Have a wonderful long weekend all.
