Does stuff like this actually happen?

Last week (and lately in general, really) I was feeling super girlie, so I was all about relaxing and catching up on some chick flicks.

Thank you, on-demand, for serving up Something Borrowed on a silver platter. I was totally sucked in from the beginning, and I blame Ginnifer Goodwin....she's very easy to relate to.

But REALLY, does shit like this ever happen in real life....and ACTUALLY work out? I don't think so.

SPOILER:
You do not have sex with your best friend's fiance (multiple times), then end up happily ever after with the guy, and also back on speaking terms with that best friend shortly thereafter. You either get one or the other, and you're usually better off if you keep your friend. (Hello...dude just screwed around on his FIANCE with you. Enter DOUBT.)



In the end, all this movie really makes me want to do is move to the Hamptons. (And do this lovely dance number to Salt N Pepa.) Sigh.

Real life isn't so simple. Want to see a movie with a REAL take on some relationship issues? Watch The Last Kiss. Real, dirty, complicated, pain.



Anyway, sorry I've been MIA lately....getting ready to start a new job, so things have been busy!

Song of the day: "You Kill Me" Paper Route

I absolutely love Last Kiss. It is so very real!

Good luck at your new job. I hope it rocks! And I really enjoyed both of those movies. I've often wondered about the stuff they show us as children about "happily ever after." Totally not real the way it is portrayed. Side note, Sydney said something today about how girls are only supposed to do this, and boys do this kind of thing. I told her she should do whatever she wants. I'm all about girl power with her.
