and last night 'mr & mrs smith' was on tv. we had the dvd, but have misplaced it (lent it?), so i put up with the commercials and enjoyed every second of it. from the moment in the opening scene where john (brad pitt) confesses sometimes he wants to kill his wife (my angie jolie), to the unravelling of their secret, to vince vaughn shouting, "i almost killed you right there, ma, you have no idea!" and the quiet rage in john's "biiitcch" at finding his stash gone, and one of my favorite lines of all time - "i can't believe i brought my real parents to our wedding." i love that movie. every scene is a delight, and i laughed out loud many times. (you all know i am a big fan of angie, but i'm really not a fan of brad, lest you think i only enjoy it because of a "cute" boy).
and also, deer in my yard in the morning. there were three this morning, munching happily away at whatever is under the dead leaves back there. gorgeous.
now really, go read 'the princess bride'.

Im a little disturbed by the "whatever is under the dead leaves back there." We'll hope you were implying something green and growing. And that sounds like a fascinating book. I should read it sometime...
Perhaps the deer found something savory in your sun bleached playschool kitchenette. A little treasure to take back to their own fruit bowl in the woods.

one of my absolute favorite memories of years ago is you sitting on the couch, oblivious to the world, killing yourself laughing while you travelled through some adventure in a book. here's to imagination!
Love the title!
I too was a bit disturbed by the "whatever is under the dead leaves" but I suppose folie a deux rears its head yet again.
Princess Bride is an all time favorite!
Happy smiles to you :0)
