Life is a Movie

This weekend, my girlfriend and I saw two movies, rented two and bought one. We watched them all.

On friday we saw Signs. I loved it, and so did she. I will say nothing about the movie. If you like to be scared then go and watch it. There is nothing too gory and at times you will be laughing at just how tense you are. We also rented The Mothman Prophecies, and Novacaine. Mothman just freaked both of us out. I am not someone that gets scared but we watched it late at night and neither of us could go right to sleep.

We also bought, The Lord of the Rings. My girlfriend stayed home on friday and watched it and last night I watched as she did some work on the computer last night.

Yesterday aftenoon we went to see My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and I had tears from laughing so much.

Of all the movies that we watched this last one really hit home. Here is a girl that lives in this crazy Greek family and she falls in love with a non-greek. She is 30 years old and she hides her new boyfriend from her family by saying that she is going to a pottery class. My girlfriend and I could relate. I used to pick her up at the Barnes and Noble, or some other place when we were first going out. Her mother would have never approved of me and still doesn't. How strange it is, luckily I know that we will be married someday soon. I am not sure when, but I'll let you know :)

Oh, I told my girflriend that I have an online journal. I didn't really tell her that people read it. I did tell her that I would like to keep it to myself. She said... "ok". Now, I know that I will have to tell her that I have online friends because of it.. but that will be easier now.

My aunt and cousin are in town visiting my father and we all went up to his house on Saturday for a little BBQ. It was nice, it was hot outside.. and I felt empty because my boys werent' there. I'll see them soon. Hopefully on Wed. for dinner.

I also have to say thankyou to everyone for you advice about what to do with my blog. The privacy issue and how I feel guilty. I took Odin's advice and told my girlfriend that I have an online journal. I didn't tell her the address and I won't. If she finds it on her own then, well.. so be it.. I did tell her that I would like to keep it to myself. In the movie Novacaine, the character that Steve Martin plays writes a book about his fantastic experiences. I won't tell you more, in case you want to see the movie. I told my girlfriend that I should write my book and she asked if I had started. I told her that I have been keeping a journal online and that's that. She said,, "Ok, that's good" She didn't want the address, nothing more. I sort of thought that is what would have happened. I didn't tell her that other people read it however. That will come next. Anyway, I just wanted to say thankyou to everyone. This blogging is very fun and I really enjoy it. I really should write a book, but I think I need to read more and decide on where to start. I have led an interesting life, but I don't think it would be all about me. Maybe a little bit of fiction, based on some true life experiences. Who knows :)

I better get to work. I have a lot to say, but... I have to work.

Happy Birthday Din!

Sorry that I am a little late.
