Why I hate Sex and The City 2.

I remember being a teenager and finding this random show on HBO, called ‘Sex and the City.’ I honestly started in the 3rd Season and it just sort of took off from there. I remember watching in somewhat secrecy because I had no idea how my mom would actually handle me watching a show with the word Sex in it. But I loved that show with all of my heart and I remember every Sunday Night sitting in my room and just waiting to see what would happen to give me a 30 minute fix for the rest of the week.
The story really was amazing, a simple New Yorker who wasn’t horribly looking trying to find love in her own way. And of course she had girlfriend. So many things and lessons came from this show but I remember all of them with a smile.

''Maybe we can be each other's soul mates, and then we can let men be just these great, nice guys to have fun with.'' – Charlotte

But throughout the years, the show got big. I mean really big, but I just held it as something good to me because there was something about it that made me feel like I wasn’t crazy and that I too would find my love.
Conversation always arose from this popular show and only one I distinctly remember. “Elizabeth, which character are you?” “Oh, I’m a Charlotte.” I said. “No you’re not.” “What? Yes, I am totally a Charlotte.” “No, you’re all of them.”
That is when it hit me. The reason this show was so amazing was because there was a Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte in every woman. That’s why this show was such a cash cow! That’s why I had to watch because every episode I found something to relate to it with. And then the last season came…

It’s almost as they were taking you down this lovely road for a fancy afternoon picnic, against your own will. You didn’t want to follow along, you didn’t trust where they were taking you, but you went along with it. And then bam, they gave you what you wanted. Everyone ended up happy and all women and gay men could rejoice and sing that it ended happily.
And then someone got greedy. It wasn’t long until rumors of the Sex and the City movie where coming out. I could go along with it, it had been a while, I wanted to see just as everyone else what had been happening in their lives. So I saw it, it was ok but I thought it was alright. And then came the second movie. And that is when the end of world started.
Sex and the City used to be a show about the strength and love of a woman, how she could always endure but leave the room with her head held high and a great smile. It was an amazing story of ‘making it on your own’ *scene to Mary Tyler Moore throwing her hat in the air* and being courageous in this big bad world. But no, people are bored of that, so what do we need to portray? Why, how about a woman that had depend on a man. How about we take our strong powerful characters and have them complain about everything under the sun! It just became too much. And honestly, if I had a nanny and a housekeeper and was able to buy any Prada, Coach, or Louie purses and shoes that I wanted, I would find it really hard to ever complain about anything. It’s women that can’t just stop and be happy for one second, seriously! I paid almost $10 to see them complain and I am suppose to pay that again to see the second?

I tried as long as I could to not let anyone convince me to see it, but eventually it got to me and I had to see it. I regret it every day. I wish I never listened to it. (I hold my foot down on things sometimes, I still haven’t listened to a Justin Beiber song yet) But alas, I have seen it. I can not un do it. But please, take a moment to remind yourself if you decide to watch what network cable has called itself an episode of this crap, just avoid it. It’s not what it used to be and it probably will never be back that that. I hate to be the one to break the news to you on it, but Sex and the City is dead.

Ten on Tuesday

1. If you could watch only one movie for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I used to always have an answer for this question, but the question alone makes me really depressed because I would quickly hate that movie. But if I have to pick one…. Can I just say ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’, yeah that sounds good.
2. Let’s say someone wrote a screenplay about you; what actor/actress would you choose to play you and why?
Elizabeth Taylor. The Early years, I think that would do my story justice.
3. What’s the first movie you remember seeing in theaters?
That’s a great question, I can’t remember. My dad used to take me to movies all the time growing up. For some reason I distinctly remember watching the movie ‘Big’ before I was 4. That is when my love for Tom Hanks started.

4. Did you ever make out at the back of a movie theater in middle school/high school?
Hahaha. Yes, I remember one where I went on a date and the guy took me to go see ‘Jacob the Liar’, it’s a movie about Jewish Life in the ghetto during Nazi Regime. I cried so hard, that poor guy never had a chance.

5. Are you a Netflix-er, Blockbuster-er or a Redbox-er? (Or none of the above?)
Um, yea… none of the above. I really don’t understand why anyone does those anymore. We ‘borrow’ movies and we get to watch lots and lots of things that aren’t even on DVD yet.

6. Name one actor/actress who you would give anything to have a dinner date with.
TOM HANKS. I would laugh at his jokes, nickname him T.Hanks and we would talk for hours while gazing into each other’s eyes. The end of night would be hard since he would realize that we were true loves destined to be with each other, he would offer me everything I ever wanted, but alas I would break his heart and leave the end of the night to be with my husband… but I would always remember T.Hanks and the memories.

7. What’s the worst movie you’ve ever seen?
Sex and the City 2. I probably should write it’s own blog for that… and you know what, I will. Of how Sex and City gave me hope as a woman that things will always get better in my life and then out of now where they just dropped a piano on me. It was a disgusting horrible movie and they should all be banned from this country.

8. Do you sneak snacks into the theater when you go?
No. The only thing I eat is popcorn. I love popcorn. It is the greatest thing ever. I am obsessed.
9. Movie theater popcorn: love or hate it?
Once in a blue moon. It’s to heavy to eat. Air popped or over the stove homemade is the way to go.

10. What is the all-time best Disney movie in your opinion?
It’s a tie. Cinderella or Beauty and the Beast. Probably Beauty and the Beast. *Sigh* :D

Beatle-mania

Thursday Night, David and I went out to celebrate one of our friend's birthdays. We got out there and had the normal conversation and catch up with the rest of our friends. But then at the end of the night I found myself at a separate table from the rest of the group with just a few friends. My very dear friend, Jessica and I just started randomly singing Beatles songs. Yep, just out of no where singing Beatles songs. And then what happened? More people started singing Beatles songs. Then there came a point where we were singing at the top of our lungs just trying to remember any lyrics to any song with bystanders cheering on. I don't think I have every had so much fun just singing with my friends. It became such a fun thing that David and I were singing and then he stopped, looked at me and asked, do you want to go home and watch 'Across the Universe'? Without any hesitation, I jumped up said yes with the biggest smile on my face and ran around to say my goodbyes. We got home, turned the projector on and watched one of the greatest Beatles tributes movies ever. Not only did we watch the whole thing, but I found it very necessary to tweet and post on facebook of every song we were singing. So I leave you with just a few of the songs we sang last night, but i do have to recommend, that if you ever have a chance to hold an impromptu sing-a-long of The Beatles, take it. You won't ever regret it.

"What would you do if I sang out of tune, would you stand up and walk out on me."


"Happiness is a warm gun." :)


"All you need is Love, Love is all you need."


By the way, it was no easy at all to pick those. My advice is to go find the movie 'Across the Universe' and then you can thank me later.

Ten on Tuesday

Thanks again over to Roots and Rings! Here's my Ten on Tuesday!

1. What is the weather like in your city today?
It is cold. I was just talking to a coworker yesterday that on Saturday I wore shorts and now it’s cold. Right now it is 50 degrees and the high today is a 74. And it’s May! Seriously? Yes, May!

2. Do you like the zoo?
I love the zoo. The one is Austin is a little, humph. I wouldn’t go, but the one in San Antonio is pretty great. My favorite animal is the elephant. I love to watch the elephant!

3. Do you eat coconut?
I hate coconut. The flavor, the texture, really everything about it. I hate it so much! I tried a drink with coconut, it didn’t take long before I just gave up and threw it away.

4. Have you ever hammered a nail? Are you good at it?
I used to be really good a hammering nails. At least I think I was. I bet if you ask my dad, he might disagree. But I got that nail in! Now, I have a wonderful husband that will hammer in the rest of my nails so I won’t have to.

5. Does your family have a vacation destination that you visit often?
Not really. One of my favorite things about my childhood was that we would go on a vacation about once every 2 years. My dad would plan out the whole thing and take us and let us see everything. I always appreciated it and looking back I appreciate it even more.

6. How many pillows do you sleep with?
Two. I always have to have 2. David also sleeps with 2. He could probably sleep with one or none, but he knows I need to have two.

7. What’s the first thing you do when you wake up?
Go to the bathroom.

8. Will you send your kids to summer camp?
I would like to. I went to a camp once and looking back it was fun but I wish I went to more. I think it would be a great memory for them to have with their siblings and friends.

9. What do you put in your baked potatoes?
I don’t really eat baked potatoes. I could probably count on one hand how many baked potatoes I have eaten. But when I do eat baked potatoes, I like to have them with everything on them. Not item is spared on my potatoes.

10. Did you take swimming lessons as a kid?
I did. When I was 5. I remember being so excited about it because I was a big girl and I was going to learn how to swim! And then I remember being sad that my class was over because that meant I couldn’t swim anymore I really love being in the water.
