4 Days to Rome

Well, I've almost made the entire month without seeing my husband. Frankly, it is killing me and I can only hope he is feeling the same pains of loneliness. I cannot wait until Sunday when I get to see him again.

Unfortunately for now I am in a small slump. The Dallas Mavericks just lost to the Miami Heat for the NBA title. Now, I am proud that Dallas made it all the way, but deep down my whole world is not going to come to a crashing halt because they lost. Basketball is not really my thing. I prefer Dallas Stars hockey and I am used to being disappointed with them. (Not that I love them any less.) So my sister left the house in tears and my poor father didn't even get a win on his 51st birthday. Hopefully there are better times around the corner. Either way, I think Mark Cuban kicks total ass!

Last night I viewed In Her Shoes. LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this movie. The best character development was the dynamic between the two sisters. I am so close to my own sister that it was easy for me to understand why Toni Collette just couldn't let Cameron Diaz down. The storyline flowed nicely and there were fantastic poems used throughout the movie. As an English teacher this really pushed me towards adoring this film. It gets a full 5 out of 5 hearts.

Right now I am avoiding taking a shower and going to bed. It isn't that I'm not tired, but I have to wash my hair and I'm really not looking forward to it because then I will have to blow dry it. And that takes forever. Perhaps I will just go ahead and go to sleep and get up super early in the morning to wash and dry it...nah I better be going. Until next time...perhaps in Rome.
