Up

Those of you who know me well know that I am the biggest sap on this earth. Yeah, I admit it! I cry at even the slightest cheesy sappy part of a movie...I am a big old cry baby!

Well, I took Dom to see the new Disney/Pixar movie 'UP' yesterday afternoon. It was good, but heart wrenching! I tried not to cry. I even tried to think of happy thoughts, but couldn't keep myself from shedding a few tears in the theatre. I am glad it was dark in there, but dreaded the walk in the afternoon sun from the theatre to my car with mascara all over my face! We made it to the car and I called my mom to explain the movie to her...and of course, I sobbed. I tried to convince myself it was just a movie...and a children's movie at that, but there was no stopping the tears from flowing from my eye faucets! Even now when I think of it...my dang eyes fill with that awful liquid! So, take this as my warning...if you are even the least bit as sappy as me...don't go see this movie...wait until you can watch it in the comfort (and privacy) of your own living room.

I knew we should've gone to the Night At The Museum 2 instead!

Emily,
I love that about you. I think it's great that you can be moved by touching movies, it just shows what a great person you are! I went to Night at the Museum, and let's just say it doesn't provoke emotionally, it just tickles your funny bone. In fact, I'm been thinking, and thinking, and thinking, since I saw it. (Go see the movie and you'll know what I'm talking about). Besides don't you love those dates with your kids, they are so fun!
