I'm easily entertained when I'm hungover

So, yesterday afternoon, still slightly hungover (a LOT hungover) from the bachelorette party, I watched Hope Floats. Yes, I really did. I laid there on my sofa, just-showered wet hair, uncombed, nearly passed out, watching a movie where I mostly just sat there being jealous of Sandra Bullock's legs.

Aside from the superstar leg-envy, I got to hear my favorite quote from a movie...maybe ever.. (aside from "nobody puts Baby in the corner...Hello, thats timeless) Anyway, it's Harry Connick Jr's quote:

"The American dream. Find something that you love that you're good at. You twist and you torture it and you try to find a way to make money at it. You spend a lifetime doin it and in the end, you cant find a trace of what you started out Lovin"

I think that's SO true....to some degree. I know, I know... There are people out there that truly love their jobs and are passionate about what they do AND make millions. But, I think what the quote's saying is many people are often stuck in corner offices, billing their asses off (for example), just to pay for their newest Jaguar... Anyhoo.. that's my semi-rant today.. and I like Hope Floats. So there.

My other fav Hope Floats quote:
Dancing is just a conversation between two people. Talk to me.

Don't you just want to jump Harry Connick Jr when he says that? *sigh* Whatever.

Anyhoo, yesterday, I tried the boob taping...then tried again...and again.. I finally got it right thanks to some internet instructions. (Yes, I really googled "how to duct tape boobs"-that chick knows what she's talking about btw). Then, I tried on my dress, ready to be totally impressed with my efforts....And.. my dress is cut too high so taping my boobs just made them look mis-shapen, not perky. *sigh* Whatever. Then, I tried on a low cut dress just to make myself feel like it was all worthwhile. Yeah.

Tonight: midnight mass with mom where I get to demonstrate my horrible singing skills while people look at me like "who is that? She never comes to church...hmm.." haha.., then hanging with little G and preparing for Christmas. :) Happy Christmas Eve, people!

I didn't have internet access when I was in Tulsa, so now I'm catching up on my blog readings. The boob taping thing cracks me UP! Seriously...funny. I love you!!!
