I bit the bullet and went into the video store yesterday. Why was this such a hard thing for me to do? Sean usually picks out the flicks and if I’m interested, I watch too. Let’s say I don’t watch everything he likes. So Tuesday, I wanted to get ‘Atonement’ and also got ‘Enchanted’ and ‘Becoming Jane’! I watched Enchanted (yes, it’s Disney) because I think Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey are cute as buttons. There I said it! I enjoyed it-the characters, the costumes, NYC, the songs, you name it! There were a few scenes I wondered about, but all in all, fun!

Later, after ‘Dancing with the Stars’, I watched ‘Atonement’. For some reason, I pegged one of the main characters, James McAvoy as resembling my late father as a young man. It was set before war time in 1935 and then after the war had begun in England and France. Bri was looking up info about the setting. The English accents were a bit thick, but again, great characters, etc.

I think I’ll make this a weekly event as long as tv is so boring and Sean isn’t here. That way I can rent the ‘chick flicks’. : )
