Winter Blues?


Happy day after Christmas.  Did you all get what you wanted and more?  I hope so. I know I had a spectacular Christmas.
 
Today I started to get the winter blues at about 1pm.  I decided to get uncooped from this house and get out into this fabulous town.  If you didn't sense the sarcasm in that sentence, believe me it was there.  I decided to go see the Will Smith moive I Am Legend.  It was a wonderful movie.  Unfortunately, I had my eyes closed for a good majority of it.  Seriously, it was an intense movie.  I also think I will be sleeping with the lights on for the next two weeks. I really liked the movie though, there is nothing like a little of Will Smith's bare bicepts to lift the spirits.  That man needs to not work out so much, my goodnes. 
 
Here are a few other movies I think you should see, if you haven't:
 
1.  Enchanted:  A great movie for all ages.  Warning: May not be suitable for manly men.  Manly Men may feel weird about touching this much of their feminine side.  If you do not come out of the theater singing "I'm Dreaming of my True Love's Kiss,"  you have not fully enjoyed this movie and must go back in and watch it again until you are singing that song.  I think Amy Adams does an amazing job smooshing all of Disney's princesses into one character.  She is even believable at being unbelievable, if you get what I am saying.  And of course, there is "Dr. Dreamy" aka Patrick Dempsey to swoon over.  He is so very sweet as well as cute in this movie.  I laughed a lot during the movie as well.  Great story line based on cartoon characters coming to the real world.  A movie well worth the 8 dollars.  (or 6 if you go to the matinee).  If you are really patient, you probably can see it in the dollar theater in about a month.
 
2.  National Treasure: Book of Secrets:  This movie is so action packed that at the end of it you think: "Was that movie really five minutes long, or was it just me?"  Time flew as I watched it.  It wasn't as good as the first one, but I really think it is great for a sequel.  Usually, the second movie is mediocre and the first and third are awesome, but this one is great.  I love the funny guy that helps Nicolas Cage's character. I was also fascinated by the whole concept of a secret Presidential book.  I am sure conspiracy theorists everywhere love that idea!  Go see it, you will find a treasure in it! (I am so punny.)
 
Well, I think that is it for tonight.  I am planning on taking my Grandma out to lunch tomorrow.  I have really missed seeing her and I am thinking a day trip to just see her would be perfect!
