Take a look at one of the fastest growing demographics in our country: The Single Mom. You'll laugh, you'll cry...and you'll consider birth control during those moments of lust-induced carelessness.
Introducing My New Feature: Random Movie Lines With Mary
I've always felt that certain people can be gauged on a level from 0 to 12.52 based on both the movies they watch and the scenes they find as emotionally compelling - or comedic - as I do.
During my post film-school dating years, I wouldn't look twice at a guy who didn't appreciate the comical genius of the Cohen Brothers "Raising Arizona." In hindsight, my taste in movies proved to better than my taste in men.
I know many people will relate to some of these and MAYBE, just maybe, they will become enlightened and intrigued enough to check out some oldies, but goodies they weren't interested in BMB (before my blog). That sounded quite harsh and a bit superior, no? As if my blog could change people's lives. Muwahahahah.
If fitting, the movie lines I post will pose as some parallel reference I'm experiencing in my life - while sharing some of my most beloved dialogue created to emote feelings we sometimes never realized we had until seeing "that" movie...Ah, the power of good filmmaking. I'm sure glad I majored in it. It's done a world of good for my career *insert sarcasm.*

Oxymorons
For some reason, I tend to notice what others don't as I also tend to NOT notice what most observe. For instance, if my mom gets her hair colored, I can't usually tell unless she points it out. If my dad mows my lawn (LOVE you dad), I don't notice until my mom mentions it.
I DO notice things that to me, seem funny or ironic. While Sara and I were at Walgreen's today, I noticed the diapers, bottles and "all things baby" were located directly across the aisle from condoms, spermicides and all things that prohibit babies from being born.
Is that poor merchandising or sheer genius? By looking at the expensive baby items and the parents whose eyes seem glazed and their appearance disheveled - the unsuspecting male or female who is buying shaving cream eight products over might momentarily pause, think about their Saturday night date and stock up on some prophylactics.
This is my Saturday night. Put a fork in me.
