No words. Honestly, there are just no words to describe the type of day I had today. So I won’t even try. Let’s just say that not even a trip to the movie theater helped distract me. My chest hurts. My hands are shaking pretty bad though I can’t figure out if its cause I’m still angry or cause I’m disappointed. Or maybe a mixture of both.
Either way… I’m going to just hush it now. I don’t want to bring you all down. Let’s just hope the rest of the week is better so that I don’t stick my head under my pillow and vow never to wake up again.
I went to see P.S. I Love You today. It’s completely unfair that Hillary Swank got to play in a movie with both Gerard Butler AND Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Irish accents=love. And JDM has dimples that looked like an angel touched his cheeks when he was born. It was a beautiful movie. It did make me laugh. It made me cry. Overall, (although my husband said it was what chick flicks are made of) I really enjoyed it.
I think it’s a testament to the power of books that so many are being made to movies lately. Has anyone noticed that? It seems more and more are making the transition successfully. As in the case of this movie, they don’t always stick to the book by the letter, but sometimes, I think that’s a good thing. There are things that work in books that just don’t work in movies. However, if the screenwriter develops a faithful rewrite, one that’s true to the book’s message, emotion and theme, then it can be truly successful, despite the changes.
Anyway, I’m rambling. Let me go make some toast and nibble away while I catch up on blogs and such.
I hope everyone’s day was bright, sunny, or at the very least productive.
I’ll be back tomorrow with better news and a sunnier disposition.
Coffee on me next time I see you.
