Home again, home again jiggity-jig

Well, I haven't been "gone" really, I've just been busy. Got home during daylight hours today -woo hoo- for the first time in several weeks. Bailed on my evening plans and instead lounged in the hammock. I could feel myself unwind.

I started watching The Family Stone and turned it off. What a judgmental, bitchy, holier-than-thou family. Is the point of the movie that they become human? I don't know, because I had to turn it off after the first 20 minutes. Not funny, not even remotely charming. I'm heading back to the hammock with a glass of wine.

Meet the Parents

I don't mind the occasional fart joke, but an entire movie based on body functions or mean-spirited humor doesn't work for me. I was dragged to theater to see Meet the Parents by someone who LOVES Ben Stiller. Not even Owen Wilson made that movie likeable for me. I dug my heels in when Meet the Fockers was released. No, no, no.
