That’s it, my final final is finally done. Completed and emailed to the professor. Whew. I had both Bek, who was a TA in the same class (different instructor) and my mother, who is a genius, look over the questions and they were both just as confused as I was. Oh well, I did my best, and it’s all said and done now.
I went to the movies today with Bek, Mel, Little J, and their kiddos. At first we thought the kids were going to go see Up, but they all decided to watch My Sister’s Keeper with us. Big J decided he’d rather stay at home and goof off (yup, he’s a teenager). I knew the first time I saw the trailer for the movie that I’d have to see it. I also knew I should probably wait until it was out on DVD so I wouldn’t cry all over myself in public. At least I didn’t cry too much. Mel was crying from the first five minutes on! I haven’t read the book, but Mel said that they changed the ending for the movie.
We all went out to The Pizza Hut afterwards and gorged ourselves. I really wished Big J was with us, but we had a good time. Even Bek’s husband came, which was quite brave of him. I don’t get to see my girls enough. Luckily on Monday, Beks and I are going to lunch and a tear-free movie.
Little J is all packed up and ready for camp. I’m suddenly not sure I’m ready for my baby boy to be away from me for a week (without his dad, too.) I’m gonna miss that boy.
I was able to talk to my Fireman for a bit tonight, and just hearing his voice made me smile. They were at the beach, and as I was talking to him, Little Man came up to ask him a question. I love his little boy voice so much. I miss my boys being small. I miss my man.
Now, I’ll settle in for a movie on Netflix, having already watched the entire first season of Californication. That show is the shiznit, y’all. The writing is amazing. ‘Night.










I just finished the book My Sister’s Keeper. I want to see the movie. It was really a moving story.
I can’t stand tear-jerker movies. Why is that? I always feel cheap after them. I cried so hard after watching Never Land that I couldn’t get out of my seat. It was embarrassing. I loved that one.
I’m glad you’re done with classes. I’m sure you did fine.
I always wait for the DVDs to come out. I’m glad you’re finished with your school stuff for now – take a break and enjoy it!
They changed the ending??? My Sister’s Keeper is one of my all time favorite books. I didn’t realize they’d already released the movie. Really worth reading. I’m a big Jodi Piccoult fan.
I love tear jerkers! But only in the comfort of my own home.
