Movie Tuesday

Finally,,,a really good movie. We saw The Help, which was just as good as the book. The theater was filled with women including a whole row of what was probably a book club. Everyone applauded at the end. The movie was not just for women either--Dennis loved it.

Movie Tuesday

This is getting embarrassing. Again, no movie on Movie Tuesday. Nothing, nothing, nothing we want to see. Hollywood, get with it.

Instead, Mom and I are taking the Prius to Toyota Service so they can make that "Maintenance Required" notice disappear from out navigation screen. I called to make an appointment and the guy said no appointment was necessary, just come in--we have coffee, doughnuts, etc. Can't wait to service my car. How weird is that?

Movie Tuesday

Where are all the good movies? Today we saw Cowboys and Aliens. Wish I could describe it, but I fell asleep in the middle. I'm waiting for The Help to come out. At least I know the book was good.

Movie Tuesday

Last Tuesday we saw Harry Potter. Because we are the oldest Harry Potter fans on earth (probably), we enjoyed it. Once again, we were expecting crowds lined up for this movie, but there was hardly anyone there--just how we like it.

Movie Tuesday

Ok, the puppy picture changed today so it no longer resembles our puppy, Ghost.

Today, Mom had an appointment with her new cardiologist. When he walked in and saw Mom, the first thing he said was, "You don't look 88!" How about that?

As for the movie today, the pickin's were slim. We finally decided on Bridesmaids. Yuk. I know people who have seen this move and said they laughed all the way through it. I don't see it. It was like a female version of The Hangover or some other ridiculous movie.  None of us enjoyed it. Next week may be better. We're planning to see the new Harry Potter movie.

Movie Tuesday

Our movie for this week was Larry Crowne. It's been called a "turkey" in some reviews, but ... Tom Hanks! Julia Roberts! It wasn't the greatest movie, the timing was off and it was fairly short, about 1-1/2 hours. But...Tom Hanks! Julia Roberts! We're not complaining.
