Well so far this isn't exactly a GAL weekend. DD's are w/WAW this weekend and last night I paid bills and today I did laundry, cleaned and went grocery shopping. Whoopee!

I wore my Flyers cap to the grocery store, it's getting cold here! I was pushing the cart down the aisle and a woman said "Ooo I like your cap. I love the Flyers!" After 20 some years of not thinking about the opposite sex, it is hard for me to muster more of a reaction than "Oh, thanks." I should have started up a convo w/her. I should have asked her if she like the rule changes or if she liked clutching and grabing. I should have asked her what she thought of protecting the crease. Ok, enough hockey euphinisims.

After I got home I put the gorceries away and made a frozen personal pizza and sat down in front of the tube. "Spanlish" was on, it is one of my new favorite movies. Others have posted song lyrics here, I'd like to post the dialog from scene 22, 23 or 24 (I think) for those who have or rent the DVD.

At this point in the movie, Deborah (Tea Leoni) is leaving to visit her OM when her mother Evelyn (Cloris Leachman) approaches her.

E: May I say just one thing?
D: Yes mother, one thing. Go ahead.
E: Deborah, you are going to lose your husband if you don't stop what you are doing. And you will never find someone as good. There will only be men who you know are cheap and shallow and have no real warmth in their souls. You may have gotten by on those serfaces once but now, you have been spoiled by a good man! If you do not act, quickly, you will soon cement an awful fate for yourself. A life with no hope of repair which has already begun to turn desperate and dumb. Drive carefuly.
D: You've done it again mother, made me hate myself . . . one of the things I can count on.
E: Lately yourlow self-esteem is just good common sense.
And Deborah drives off.

I know this it's hollywood, but I wish my MIL had the spine to say that to her daughter. What I took away from the movie was that I need to learn how to cook and speak spanish.
