The chemistry between Ryan and Michelle is electric in Blue Valentine. |
Occasionally, I take a little time for myself. Go for a walk. Have a lingering coffee. Read a book.
Today, after I dropped them off, I noticed the cinema next door had a morning session of Blue Valentine. I thought, 'What the hell, a few hours by myself in the movies would be great.' Feeling a wee bit guilty, but pretty excited by the idea, I headed for the box office.
It's been a bad news week and I thought a break away from reality would be really welcome. A break from the constant stream of updates and bulletins. A great luxury, I know. It's just a shame Blue Valentine is so heart wrenching. I really enjoyed it, the acting was fantastic and it was a well directed film, but I came out exhausted. I now also have a bit of a girl crush on Michelle Williams.
Do you ever sneak off and do something indulgent like go to the movies on a weekday morning?

This is so entirely what I need to do. I am envious.
ReplyDeleteSO many movies I'd love to see right now.
ReplyDeleteAm not missing Black Swan, will wait for my husband to get back from overseas though, he has a HUGE crush on Natalie Portman...
I sometimes treat myself to the spa or an afternoon of shopping, but I'm not alone, usually have the toddler in tow...
I want Mary Poppins dammit!
I have been known to do this :). Usually I'm at work the days Master P is in day-care, but on the odd occasion when work and study aren't happening, I bunk off for the morning and hit the cinema. Last time I did that, I saw Inception. I'm actually planning on seeing Blue Valentine on Friday night when P has his first ever trial sleep-over at the grandparents (it's not much of a sleep over since T is going too, but it's a night to myself!)
ReplyDeleteHi Corinne, I am very new to blogging, but already loving it! I think you have a beautiful blog and the few posts I've managed to read of yours are so warm and familiar to me. This post particularly sounds just perfect, I too look forward to one day sneaking off to the movies to see my kind of film. It's a way off as I still have 2 young ones not yet in pre-school, but I'll get there! In the meantime I'm loving being a mother to my boys :o)
ReplyDeleteP.S. Michelle Williams is great!
