Don't Mess with Mother Nature

Yesterday I talked about how much I enjoyed the movie "Atonement" and how I was going to spend the day "atoning" for anything in my life that needed some attention. Well, apparently, using the internet too much was on the list (much to my chagrin). We had a pretty nasty storm blow through here yesterday afternoon and it fried my modem. So, no web access at my house now! I'm over at the 'rents house letting them babysit while I steal a few moments to prepare for my big SITS debut tomorrow. Yep, it figures that the weekend before my big debut, my link to the bloggy world disintegrates.

Anyway, I took advantage of the misery free time last night and this morning to get some much needed cleaning done around my house. It also gave me the opportunity to see 2 more movies. (Netflix is going to lose money on me this month)

I can highly recommend "Enchanted", especially if you love Patrick Dempsey. I don't know anyone like that. And can I just say that Amy Adams is great! I saw her in "Junebug" a couple of months ago and she was great in that also.

I also finally saw "Brokeback Mountain". Hubby flat out refused to watch that one, so I flew solo. That was a great movie. I was very hesitant to watch it because of the subject matter, but I'm so glad I looked past it. It was a very sad love story that goes far beyond the controversy of homosexuality. And for anyone who appreciates really great cinematography, the scenic shots in this movie are breathtaking. And so is Jake Gyllenhaal.

And so, I've decided to launch a new weekly (I hope) segment at the spot called "Spot's Sunday Entertainment Roundup". Since I am a connoisseur of all things entertainment related, I'll be reviewing movies, music, books and t.v. here each Sunday. So, if there's something entertainment related out there that you're looking for a review of, email me and I'll see what I can pull together for you.

Now, I must take my leave of you. Sounds like the girls are about to put the 'rents into an early grave. Not good. If I can sneak back over here later tonight to check in, I will, otherwise, come back and see me tomorrow for Monday Morning Eye Candy: The SITS edition and for more of my witty repartee! Ciao!
