Yesterday, after long anticipation, Don and I went to see Marley & Me. Mind you, we had listened to the author narrate the book on CD on a road trip we made early 2007 and I knew what to expect. So on the way out the door, I pulled 3 kleenex out of the box and off we went. I had a half day vacation yesterday, and he is off until Jan 5, so we went to a matinee. The theatre was PACKED at 2pm! Jennifer Aniston & Owen Wilson did a great job playing who they did. They really brought those characters to life for me. Even though I think Owen Wilson needs a nose job. Really badly. Who doesn't think that?!?! Surely the guy knows his nose looks like a penis. I digress. Without giving the movie details away, I will just say this. I laughed and cried over and over again. If you are one of those people who is worried about your image and crying in a movie theatre, this movie is NOT for you. Thanks to Oprah, I also now call it "The Ugly Cry". For those of you who do not know what that is, it is quite simple. It means you have cried so hard that your face is distorted and ugly afterwards. When I got home, swollen eyes & nose, I picked my little poopie doopie up and hugged and kissed on her until she couldn't stand it anymore. Fur all over my coat, I did not care. Heck, I didn't even clean it off and walked in to work today like it was a badge of honor. I am a dog owner :-)
Oh, and by the way, take more than 3 kleenex.
