Crazy Dreams I had

Wgbw sorry for tha delays. I know I try and avoid these self-reflective posts, but I had the craziest dreams about these ex-lady friends the other night. Some of the stories will be (very slightly) amended and obvi the names/#s of any of the LFs will be altered.

For some context this was all in one night, and I woke up very briefly in between each one. This ish cray.

Dream 1) I was in New York (already unbelievable I know), and I was on the set of the TV show Girls. LF #3 popped out and was being filmed on the show. I kept trying to tell her I was in New York (I have no idea why) but then a bunch of her friends jumped out and told me I was a dick. Then everyone on the set starting laughing at me so I left lol.

Dream 2) I was in my work office and one of the people who interviewed me last week was sitting in my chair doing a follow up interview. They said they needed to verify my references including my (short-lived) time with LF #2. I was like, I don't really think she'd like it if I spilled all the beans about her. So I tried calling her but she ignored my call which really wasn't out of character lol. Then the guy wanted to give her immunity if I talked about her. It was weird.

Dream 3) Me and Maker (lol) were in this souped up house looking for treasure (weird I know). After we went through all these trapped doors and stuff we ran into Anderson Silva and Lebron James. The 4 of us decided to go to Walmart where we ran into LF #1. We made small talk and I asked her who this chick she was with was. She was like it's obvi the girl who walked me down the aisle when we got married. I was like 'we're married?!' Then she was mad I forgot about it lol.

Dream 4) I was going to some debate tournament and went into my hotel room. Only LF #4 was in there with some dude. And they had managed to screw up the covers of all of the beds in the hotel. And they thought it was funny. I was like SMH.

Lesson learned: no more melatonin lol

Notting Hill

1) It's really a solid RomCom. I'm not wild about British movies/tv shows generally but there's some good exceptions (Season 1 of Episodes and Love Actually), this one included.

2) It's also the first movie that made me realize that I've watched way too many girly movies in my life. We were playing trivial pursuit one night and this was the answer to one of the questions. It didn't really surprise me that I knew it, but it saddened me that everyone looked at me for the answer to the RomCom category lol.

3) As I've mentioned before, this movie is the proud home of the line "I'm also just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her." One of the all time greats BW.

4) My only real problem with the movie is that I think all the music in it is kind of bad. Obvi it matches up with the movie well but I'm just generally not tuning in. (The obvi exception to that is the "When you say nothing at all song." That song is OTC.)

B+

Ted

Wgbw, I'm sorry that the great month of October is over but I'll try to keep the blog going on a little more consistent of schedule. Anywho,

1) I actually saw this last Summer so some of my recollection of it might be skewed. I remember it being pretty funny but it's kinda goofy too. I mean, the movie's about a teddy bear that is actually alive. Outside of horror movies I'm not too gungho about make-believe movies.

2) That being said it was funny. They had a good mix of new inappropriate humor and fwiw the bear was pretty tight. The ending just kept dragging on and on with that stupid kidnapping scene. This movie will get you stir crazy by the end.

3) It's always hard for me to imagine Mark Wahlberg in these movies that aren't just based on him being a boxer or a psychotic stalker. I'm not sure this is really his cup of tea.

4) I might have a poor taste about this movie too because for some reason we were late to the movie and ended up having to sit in like the 3rd row of the theater. I'm only like 5'7" (optimistically) so throughout a lot of the movie I was pretty uncomfortable.
