This is our happy song.

After all the blah, I wanted to update you all about something happy. But nothing snarky and/or blog-worthy came to me. So I'm just going to tell you all, I saw "Mirror, Mirror" (PS. anybody else find it a little ironic that Julia Roberts also starred in a movie whose soundtrack includes "Mirror, Mirror"? Anyone? Yeah, it's "Pretty Woman"). 

And:

a) Julia Roberts (aka her accent) was not always as bad as I expected.

b) It was a fun kid's movie, with a couple of little boy humor moments I could've done without (though apparently the larva are a real thing, beauty treatment-wise. Ew.).

c) They do a full-on Bollywood song and dance number at the end. Don't get me wrong, I think more movies should burst into song, but it was very unexpected given the lack of anything musical throughout the film.

I seem to be all about the fairy tales these days. Then again, so is Hollywood and everywhere else. As Once Upon a Time says "To believe in even the possibility of a happy ending is a very powerful thing."

Speaking of which, I LOVE the show "Once Upon a Time". I also, at times, violently hate the writers. Every time a teeny little good thing happens something horrible happens just to crush you!! And, just in case you are the writers and you happen to Google yourselves and this comes up, just know this: Getting Snow and Charming back together would be nice. Getting Rumpelstiltskin and Belle back together is crucial. Maybe it's because David is just so darn unlikable now. Or maybe it's because Rumpel has the most compelling storyline of the plot. One way or another, make it so! P.S. I really do love your show. Despite the fact that you're a little bit sadistic.

  1. I also LOVE Once Upon A Time, but haven't found anyone to talk about it with yet. Why doesn't everyone watch the most awesome shows made? Rumpel and Belle. That would be great! Once Upon A Time, Revenge, and Bones are my three favorite shows at the moment. I don't know why, 'cause Bones is the only one that actually has resolution at the end of the episode. Darned writers and their desire to leave people hanging!!!! But I still watch (the day after because I don't have tv anymore and have to wait for the internet to catch up) every week.

  2. I enjoy Once Upon a Time, but some episodes are more ridiculous than others. I keep hoping that it will get better than it is. Perhaps I am too anxious to get things resolved.
