Harmless movie if a bit bland and dull. JM still very pretty (though I wish he had more hair) and still very appealing. Would have liked to see him in a role that was a bit more edgy, but he gave an appealing performance (thought he had more chemistry with the woman he almost picked up in the bar than with his "wife.") And I hope someone does screen caps because I think there could be some pretty shots.

All in all, the movie was okay though nothing to write home about, and JM is still talented and needs something to showcase that because I'd really like to see that.

Other things today:
Hmm... all I can say is that I'm a damn good sister. First my sister woke me up on my day off yesterday by calling and asking me to drive her and her kids to the airport. Then, she woke me again this morning by calling and saying that she'd forgotten that next Sunday was Easter (you can tell we're a really religious family, can't you.) Since they wouldn't be back until late next Saturday night she begged me to go out and do Easter Bunny shopping so that my neice Lexie would have the Easter Bunny deliver. So, I headed out and bought stuffed chicks and bunnies, lots of chocolate, jelly-bellys, and peeps.

I'm also a good daughter because my mother called wanting me to buy paint and ship it to her (yeah you read that right) for her kitchen.

I also managed some shopping for myself. Macy's had a clearance sale and I got $119 cashmere sweater for $20 bucks and some change. Woohoo!

Also watched DVDs (okay, I guess I was busy today). Watched Timeline. Zzzzzz. I had read the book. It was about the same as the movie, though they had changed some of the stuff regarding how the time travel worked. (There was no black hole involved in the book). Still the movie was boring. Also watched. Lost In Translation. Also a bit of a snoozer. It sort of lazily meanders around. There are interesting parts and nice character bits. But not exactly a lot of plot (or resolution for that matter). Enjoyable but I'm rather glad I never bothered to see it in the theater.

Finally... I think I've become addicted to coffee-lite, sugar-free vanilla frappacinos at Starbucks. Really addicted.

I can't wait to see James in something different and this little movie have such an appeal fo me. There are some screencaps in Cold Dead Seed if you haven't seen them already.

Thanks! ::drool:: Yummy.

And I actually found an even better deal on another cashmere sweater (I scanned it three times because I couldn't believe the $175 OFF), but I didn't get it because it was a grey-ish boucle sweater which, I really probably wouldn't wear much. So I put it back. The one I bought was lime green. I figure that it was still there and marked so far down because it was lime green. But, hey, I wear lime green so yay me. :)

I like grey but lime green is a wonderful color,I'm sure it looks great on you :)

The gray didn't bother me, it was the curly boucle part. For some reason the bulk in boucle never looks good on me. And I do wear lime a lot. :)

You are a *very* good sister and daughter.

And I really hope this movie gets JM some better parts. He has the talent. He just needs the right place to show it off.

I still have to buy one more item. Apparently the Bunny always gives books as well, so I need to go to the bookstore (which is sort of a joke because I'm one of those people who can get lost in a book store I love them so). The worse problem is that I have to drive over to my sister's house (which takes about 20 minutes) and if I go over there I'm going to end up having to stay a while to play with the dog because the poor little hairmop has been abandonned for the week as my sister goes on vacation (and the puppy is one of those too darn cute to turn away from). A neighbor is feeding her this week (so that I don't have to drive by--and out of my way--every day) but if I go over I need to play with the puppy.

Since her house is actually closer to my office than my home is, I may put off going over to her house until Monday.

Yes, you are an excellent sister and daughter and God rewarded you with the Macy's sweater. Woo hoo indeed.
Cool Money still better than The Mountain & Winding Roads Of course, a sharp stick in the eye would be better than those.

Heh. The mountain was atrocious. Just... terrible. And the sweater is nice. I couldn't believe the deal I got on it. I figured it was because it was lime green so it was still around at the end of the season for that. But, hey, I wear lime green. :)

More hair = Brillow pad. The constant bleaching on Buffy relaxed his hair enough where it looked good longer, but now it would not.

I've always wondered why he then would't just relax it. I mean, he's an actor and they have products that would do that. He never appears to think about that though. Guess it's the guy in him. :)

Yeah. I know my husband would die before he'd touch product.
