MAGIC

Dear Reader, Last night Hector and I cleaned our apartment for the big move. The night before I went to Target and bought some cleaning supplies (I'll write a blog later about my extreme love for Target). I thought I would branch out and try some new cleaning brands--shake it up a bit--so I brought Mr. Clean Magic Erasers. Let me just tell you ... these erasers are nothing short of magic. They are wonderful and the clean up messes you never thought could be cleaned. Magic Erasers do not run out of steam, they just keep going and going. The ones I bought were Febreze scented and made everything smell so nice. I love them. New favorite cleaning product.

Love, Brittany

I Say No to that Proposal

This weekend Hector and I went to go see a matinee of The Proposal. It was pretty much what I had expected it to be (besides Betty White's participation in a Native American chant around a campfire in the middle of nowhere). Another element I did not expect was the lack of chemistry between Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. I believed that after their time at his family's home he finally respected her but I do not for a second believe that he fell in love with her. Their was absolutely NO chemistry other than an amicable brotherly/sisterly love.

My slight disappoint got me thinking about romantic comedies in general and their decline in plot and believability. In the movie she holds Andrew's family dog in the air in hopes that an eagle will trade the dog for her cellphone which the fowl had previously snatched. She also sings and dances to "Get Low" while chanting with Gammy in the forest. Both of these scenarios are completely unbelievable to me and can completely ruin an entire film's credibility.

The most recent chick flicks I've seen include Bride Wars, Ghost of Girlfriend's Past and the Proposal. All of these films featured elements of the unbelievable including Matthew Mcconaughey's transformation from D-Bag status to sudden likability. I don't buy it for a second. Once a serial womanizer, always a serial womanizer.

Getting back to the point...romantic comedies just aren't what they once were (with the exception of He's Just Not That Into You...absolutely love that one). I miss the days of While You Were Sleeping, Sleepless in Seattle, You've Got Mail, etc. While they had plots that were out of the ordinary, they were still plausible and the main characters had CHEMISTRY.

The moral of the story is...can we bring these chick flicks back to earth please?

The Big Sting

Last night Hector and I picked up fast food and headed over to his mom's house to watch our rented movie on the new flat screen she bought us (SO nice, I know). When we got there Hector realized that he didn't have the house key and so we attempted a break in. Hector checked the back while I waited on the porch. After a few minutes, Hector came back with no luck. We both went around to the back to see if I could get through the kitchen window. On our way to the back we passed a bee's nest and Hector told me to walk fast through the line of fire. However, I was not as fortunate as Hector and I was stung instantly. While I realize this is not a huge deal--getting stung--you must realize that this was my first sting. It was really sad. I pride myself in having never been stung before and last night that was taken away from me. I wanted to go my whole life never having been stung but that will never happen. I guess I will just have to hold on to the fact that I have never broken a bone.

Also, I have no idea why people whine about bee stings. They don't hurt.

The Curious Case of Cate Blanchett

I have officially decided that I love Cate Blanchett and would love to look as great as she does at 40. She is absolutely beautiful. It seems that she gets better looking with age.
