Summer Day 1, June 5, 2011
Saw "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" - Gotta love Johnny Depp. Love going to the movies with my kiddo.
Booked airfare to Cali for this summer. My kiddo will be gone for a week, and then I will join her there for an additional week. Can't wait to show her all the places I grew up. More than that, I am excited for her to bond with my aunts and cousins. And, we get to hang with my youngest sister. Can't beat that!
Yesterday, we watched "Unstoppable" with Denzel Washington. Intense! Incredible story of heroism. I love stories of the heroism of ordinary people who step up to what needs to be done simply because they are there and it needs doing. This move was based on a true story, although I'm uncertain of how closely it follows true events. We need to hear more true stories of heroism, not just the negative out there and how we're all screwing the earth up, etc. But good old fashioned selfless heroism. I'll be on the lookout for every day heroes.
Also, watched "The Next Three Days" with Russell Crowe. That one was a bit different, but I liked how he fought for his wife. Never did he ask her if she killed the woman, and he didn't believe her when she lied and said she did. An amazing kind of love. Wonder if that really exists today? Worth the watch.
Ok, next ... gotta find a good read. Til later!
