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.*

The Hills Are Alive....

...With The Sound of Mary's Fresh Faaaaaccceee... That's right my friends, I was on the receiving end of what had to be one of the most AMAZING hours of my life. My First Facial. If I was 12 and texting, I would just use "OMG! MFF!!" The again, guess that could go either way:) All I know is that my skin is "dewy" - and "dewy agrees with my skin. Now, if I could just get rid of those triple D breasts, I'd have a perfect view from the top. (pun intended). In all honesty, my mom almost had to push me out the door to go to our local spa (www.thymedayspa.com)as I usually prohibit taking care of myself in such frivolous ways. There are many times I could kick myself for not arguing for a higher salary "grade." Not too mention when I argued my case for a higher salary grade after returning to the work force, had I known child support would not be part of my monthly income, different measures would have been taken:) Oh well, a day late and a dollar (more like $43K) short. At least I have my sweet, rambunctious beautiful little ladies. "Lady" might be a stretch for Sara - she was heard using the "s" word at her parochial school on Friday. I banned cable over six months ago. I am desperate for advice on how to handle this situation and look forward to replies. She KNOWS it's a bad word. Ive even washed her mouth out with soap (which Josie found partially goodtasting - a real shocker.) As most people know, I am very open and approachable, and I am certainly not one to turn a blind eye if my children are acting up. Have you ever had a night when you got home from a grueling week of work, the house is around 36% clean, yet you just remembered you need to buy diapers or your daughter's bed will be flooded by the yellow sea. It is at times like these, that I wish I had a "partner" to tag team. Or a nanny to pay to get something that seems small out of the way, but in my household, it would be a major production to drive up to the local grocer. Did I just use the word grocer? God, I'm getting old. Quote of the Day:
Every sweet has its sour; every evil its good. - Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1803-1882
