These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Monday Movie Meme -- True Romance
In honor of The Bumbles' anniversary: If you could live any movie's love story, which one would it be? I have two, chosen for the same reason: When Harry Met Sally and Two Weeks Notice. Wouldn't it be great to already know someone really well before you fell in love, and into bed? To be aware of the personality quirks that usually surprise you about a lover before he became a lover? To have the only surprise be how good he is in bed? Sigh ... Will someone please throw a bucket of cold water on me?

When Harry Met Sally is one of my favorites. Andy likes that one as well. In fact, I don't know of many who don't. When that movie came out I went to see it with these 3 guys who I was friends with. They enjoyed it as much as I did. Although for months later they used to tease me and one of the guys who was my best buddy by saying "When Tommy Met Molly" every time we hung out. He and I always were and remain platonic friends, but a differing of romantic feelings threatened to put the kibosh on our friendship at one point. He got over it - I think. So I'm still not sure if men and women can ever really be just friends. But I keep trying.
ReplyDeleteLove both movies and your reasons for choosing them.
ReplyDeleteI like "Two Weeks Notice" mostly because I love watching Sandra Bullock. I can't help but feel the guy is a jerk because he doesn't appreciate what's right there under his nose. Thanks for stopping by today.
