SEX and the CITY with a side of cider beer

The moment has arrived and I feel delicious. No I am not married yet and no I didn't get a huge tax refund but the event that I have been waiting for finally happened; Sex and the City, the movie, has arrived. I went to a midnight showing on opening night and it was perfect. I met my girlfriend at a bar before the flick in order to grab some cider beer and a martini. We filled our tummies with liquid dreams and I pranced over to the theatre in metallic heals. The setting was right and the audience was packed in. Suddenly I was awakened with that sweet sound I have been missing since the show went off air, the Sex and the City theme song. The audience cheered as the girls made their entrance. I loved it, every sexy minute of it. There was no scene that was too much and I got closure for every relationship. It was like one long two hour episode except it had better outfits and more drama. It was so appropriate that I sat next to three beautiful women as we laughed and related to the scenarios in the film. I am biased because I love the show and every character on it. I must admit Carry has my dream job and I would love to have the opportunity to write the way she does. There is nothing better to me than watching a writer explore the essence of who she is and the fashion is wonderful too. For this movie I would recommend only going with your girlfriends. Don't ask you significant other, trust me they don't really want to go and do not go with a mother or other close family member where certain nude scenes can be awkward. Everything was perfect and ended the way I hoped. Couldn't help but relate to the movie at the end of the night when it was just us four girls walking away in our heals. Hello Lovers.....

P.S. I Love You

Girls, ladies, women...hear me when I say, "DO NOT SEE P.S. I LOVE YOU!" Sad movies have never been my-cup-of-tea, but this movie is more than that it makes your heart drop. I will not ruin the movie for you but I can tell you that after watching it my eyes were as red as an apple. The plot of the movie is a woman is married and her young husband dies. Before he died he left a series of notes for her telling her how to live out her life and essentially move on. Maybe it hit me more because I am getting married and just could not bear the thought of this happening at the moment but the movie just killed me emotionally. I have not cried like that since I was a teenager and my mom wouldn't let me go out two nights a week, which I thought was social murder. As I get older I find I want to fill my mind with uplifting movies and thoughts. My three movie choices are chick-flicks, comedy or adventure. I have no category for drama or horror it just does not fit with the way I want to carry out life. This movie was just sad and after the movie and even later that night it brought me down. It was filled with small bits of comedy and it was written well overall but it was shadowed by the emotional depths the movie will take you to. If you are going to watch it I recommend you snuggle up to a good girlfriend and a box of tissue because no man will want to see this. My girlfriend and I both agreed that we thought the movie was good but we will never watch it again. I am not sure whether that means it was good or bad. If you love movies like Walk to Remember or BrokeBack Mountain, then this is your movie. Don't forget to grab your popcorn.

Moving on...


Well today I officially moved into my new home and am now in Phase 2 of my life this year. Phase 1 was graduating college, moving, getting engaged, Phase 2 is moving in with my sister before I get married and Phase 3 of this year is moving to San Francisco after I get married. This is the next step to moving toward being a married woman. I am excited to finally be at this step but am physically drained because of the move. I wish I could pass out for a few days and just rest my bruised body. Now I am living with my older sister and her husband who is 8 1/2 months pregnant. I am so excited to finally meet my nephew and am looking forward to having my fiance be home for the summer. So here I am tired, sore and ready to start my new phase in life. All I need now is a martini.

Boston Lady-song

If you have ever had a friend who you met and didn't like at first then you can understand my friendship with one of my best friends. No we didn't hit it off at first and no we didn't even like each other when we met. In fact, we were horrid to each other and constantly gossiped about our dislike for the other. Friends,true friends, get over all that. We grew to love each other and here is the song I wrote about it:

When I First met you, I always made fun of you,
Whenever your back was turned I bet you could feel your ears burn.
The thought of us being friends was as real as the fake smile I gave whenever you walked by..
and I said...to everone I know...

Who is she,
Can't ya see,
She don't mean a damn thing to me,
the way she stares,
the stylish clothes she thinks she wears
Well she better NEVER say hi to me.

Then one day you asked me for a ride,
I gritted my teeth and took the wheel,
Your charm slowly grew on me in that car,
The bond I thought we would never have made became real,
and then I said,

Who is she,
Can't Ya see
She is starting to become something to me,
Her beautiful hair,
And the way she has no fear,
Next time I see her I hope she says hi to me,

Well years went on and days went by,
She and I became the best friends in each others lives...OOHHHHH,
And now I say,

Who is she,
Can't Ya See,
She's everything to me
The love she gives
And the Godly way she lives
She better never say bye to me

I said she's here to stay
never want her to go away
she better never say bye to me oh no she better never say bye to me!
