An update of sorts...
There's lots to mention...but I wanted to post this because I really enjoyed this past weekend with Erin....not the weather mind you...the weekend.
We ended up watching a couple of movies. One of them 'Unforgiven' starring and directed by Clint Eastwood - was one that I had never seen and always wanted too. It has now become one of my favorite movies. Aside from the fact that Mr. Eastwood has a firm grasp on irony/parody/satire - it's simply very well done and some of the quotes were hysterical (like this one from Gen Hackman who played Little Bill Daggett the unconventional sherrif of the town - not to mention the fact that Eastwood managed to get Richard Harris to take a role in this Western):
Little Bill Daggett: It's been a long time, Bob. You run out of Chinamen?
English Bob: Little Bill, well I thought you was, well I thought that you were dead. I see you've shaved your chin whiskers off.
Little Bill Daggett: I was tasting the soup two hours after I ate it.
English Bob: Well, actually, what I heard was that you fell off your horse, drunk of course, and that you broke your bloody neck.
Little Bill Daggett: I heard that one myself, Bob. Hell, I even thought I was dead 'til I found out it was just that I was in Nebraska.
So if you haven't seen this one it's well worth renting
********
In other news, I've taken up that elusive of all sports, golfing. It is simultaneously a blast while being one of the most frustrating things ever...but I love it - and what's even better is I get to share with my husband. What a blast it's been - he is a wonderful coach.
Well more to blog about later - for now I wish you all Peace.
