better late then never....right?


dear thieving old guy,



So apparently you walked into a seattle sears recently and gave them $100.



its to repay the $20 you stole back in the 1940s.....



apparently you conscience got to you....



60 years later....




i realize this is supposed to be a heart warming tale




an inspiring tale, that there is good in all of us. (including you)



yeah, the cynic in me is shouting:

it took you 60 effing years to get around to doing this??



has your conscience been on vacation for 60 years?



you clearly need to replace your conscience because it has been drunk at the wheel!!


sincerely,


valentine





p.s. i will acknowledge that it was nice of you to add interest on. that is something right?

twilight saga: breaking dawn

dear breaking dawn,




what can i say? i loved you. i really loved you.




everything was much better this time around.




the pacing.




the acting.





while i wasn't a huge fan of the soundtrack (how could there be no MUSE?)





i LOVED that they played the song bella and edward danced to at the prom



in twilight.








i loved that they played bella's lullaby.





i loved the toasts at the reception, this is why the humans need to be



in each movie, their humanity is relatable.





i was happy with isle esme



and not grossed out by the delivery.




i loved the stephenie meyer made a cameo at the wedding.





i loved how gaunt and deathly they made bella.



by the way, kristen stewart may not be a great actress,



but she plays dead very well.






i could have done without the wolves (not a fan)




but since they had to be in there, i thought they were fine.





and how absolutely adorable was that baby???




and i LOVED ending it on bella's eyes!






AGGH! 356 more days until PART 2!!!!







p.s. i LOVED the hunger games trailer that played before


the movie. I guess that will have to get me through


until next november!!!

hollywood roundup

dear hollywood,


its that time again to roundup all the stuff you might have missed this week







in the what the hey-hey moment of the week



kimberly stewart (rod stewarts daughter) and benicio del toro (the puerto rican brad pitt) are having a baby. wait were they together? apparently long enough to procreate.

i envision love at first sight, benicio spotting kim from across the room, their eyes meeting and sparks flying.....

that or it was a drunken party, benicio stumbling into the ladies bathroom, then stumbling into and out of a very drunk k.stew a couple of times and bam! isn't the miracle of life wonderful?




so bono's charity "ONE" has come under scrutiny when it was revealed that only a little over 1% of donations actually go to poor, hungry people.


the rest of it went to these people, the "ONE" staff.

in all fairness, it isn't cheap hiring people to brainstorm creative and fun ways to not provide food to hungry people. helping people ain't free. what is this a charity? oh wait......



and of course a few pregnancies were announced.


snore.


don't people realize that not having a baby is the new having a baby??




tori spelling and liam mcdermott (am i the only one who isn't sure why this dude is famous?) are having a third child




tina fey is having a second baby because of peer pressure. apparently her daughter is the only child at school who is the only child....

score one for hollywood for procreating for great reasons

i kid. i like tina.

but srsly, just say no to babies.





emily deschanel and david hornsby are having a baby. can i just say score to rickety cricket for getting such a hot wife!

katniss

dear jennifer lawrence,


so it isn't news that you have been cast as katniss in the hunger games movie. i was hesitant when i found out, you certainly didn't look the part, but as we all know, just because you look like the character, doesn't mean you can play the part right, or even act (*cough* kristen stewart)




a lot of the HG fan forums said that i would feel different after i saw you in "winter's bone". so i watched it. and while i am not a huge fan of this movie, (or your constant montone, too many flash backs of bella), but there were certain aspects of it made me realize you should be able to pull it off playing katniss.

in fact, there were A LOT of similarities between the 2 stories



a poor small town that is dreary and gray all the time? check

a mother that is so depressed she is in a comatose state? check

having to grow up too soon to care for your family? check

able to hunt, kill and clean an animal? check



the only reason difference in the 2 were the fathers of the main characters......


that and the whole televised children killing each other thing.


i guess what i am saying is, after seeing you in winters bone,

i am a little more excited for next march when Hunger Games comes out.


now i just have to get over who they cast as peeta....

dear target


i must admit when i found out you were creating these new fits, i wasn't really interested, i rarely bought clothes from you and i found the system to be a little confusing.






fast forward to 6 months ago and i moved to a small town that basically just has a walmart (which i really like, but have yet to find good clothes there)

it has been fine, i am able to buy most things online and it hasn't been a big issue, but as we all know, pants are really hard to shop for, and even harder to buy online.

i was up in the "big city" and went to target, decided to try on their fits and guess what? i really liked fit 3. in fact, they fit me great! i have a boy body, but these fit in such a way that i actually look like a girl. amaaaaaazing!

i am so excited because now i can buy pants online, at least from target.
