Movies!

As I have blogged about numerous times before, I love movies! If you are from the Birmingham area, on Tuesday nights at the Carmike at the Summit, it's stimulus Tuesdays. The movie tickets are the same price, but you can get a small coke and popcorn for $1 each. That's a great deal! I love to go to see a chick flick with my girlfriends from church so last Tues we went to see: Julie & Julia
I love Meryl Streep! I thought that she did a great job of portraying Julia Child. The movie was a little longer than I thought that it should've been, but overall, I really liked it.
Last month we also went to see



I chose not to read the book prior to seeing the movie since I've been disappointed in the last couple of movies I've done that with. I have since read the book, and I'm happy with that decision since the ending is totally different. One of my friends had warned me that I would probably cry, so I took some tissue with me. I was made fun of since I couldn't find my small package of tissues and my purse was huge, therefore, I just stuck a box in my purse. By the end of the movie all of us were crying and Monique retracted her statement. :) Great movie, but much better book!

Anyone want to participate in stimulus Tuesdays, let me know. I love a good movie! Some I am looking forward too:

I LOVE Rachel McAdams!
Because Bradley Cooper is HOT!!!
Kherington from So You Think You Can Dance is one of the main characters and I love to watch people dance!


Madea is HILARIOUS!!!


I have always been on Team Jennifer!

Hey Mary, I got the chain from an Etsy store. Here is the link to the chain section of the store:

I used close to 9 ft of chain and you'll need a clasp as well.

If you have any more questions just let me know.

I've been watching alot of movies lately, but I will not watch a sad movie on purpose. I hate crying! I get so emotionally involved that I'll be sad for days lol.

Can't wait for the new Medea movie, so funny!

I have heard that the book is much better than the movie for My Sister's Keeper but I think I still want to see it. I will probably wait to rent it. I really want to see Time Travelers Wife!
