A quick ocean journal...

Bob came home with me tonight in a more sedate fashion. We were both a little surprised to find D10 and Mr. Wonderful watching Bruce Almighty... I rented 5 movies from Blockbuster on Saturday and I have only managed to see that one.

Anyway, it had about 20 minutes to go, and I told them to go ahead and finish watching because it was the end and we had time before heading to church. I was actually pretty interested in observing Mr. Wonderful, because I knew what happened at the end of the movie.

Right at the time that Bruce dies, he bolted off the couch. His face was a little red and his eyes were glassy. He started loading plates in the dishwasher while listening. He was putting on D6's shoes when God asked him if he wanted Grace back.... and Bruce said no.... that all he prayed for was for her to find love and be happy.

Mr. Wonderful ran upstairs, got his coat and started exclaiming loudly, "I'M ALLERGIC TO THE CAT! I'M ALLERGIC TO BUTTERFLY!!!!! I HAVE TO GO NOW!" I had to contain myself from laughing... I've had this cat for over a year, and NOT ONCE has he had that reaction to her.

D10 was feeling pretty sorry for her dad, but I smelled a rat. This guy was emotional and ready to cry and didn't want to do it in front of me/us.

Who can recommend some more tear jerkers for me to rent?
