Ahhhh. MUUUCH better. 

I went shopping. I needed disks to back up my data, I needed to get the end papers for my book, and I needed purple earrings because Scarlett lost mine. I figured I'd hit the cinema, and see DaVinci Code since I didn't know anyone else who wanted to see it. I'd just see it alone this afternoon. 

Well, I didn't get the purple earrings, because FatBug didn't have any. But I did get this fantastic new tank that really brings out the color of my eyes. 

I would have put them behind a cut, but I'm lazy.  The color of the shirt is kinda rare, don't see it much, but it really works for me. So should I ever actually have a date, it will be an asset, because it emphasizes my wonder-twin powers o'doom, and my eyes. lol  And if I don't ever have a date, I'll be comfy.

Anyway, so I sat through 15 minutes of previews and then saw DaVinci Code. I enjoyed it very much. It cut some things from the book, which is to be expected, but I think it actually made the story more coherent. However, it did kinda limp over a few 'whys and wherefores'. And if you're not into self-flagellation, it has some parts not for the squeamish. (like me) I just covered my eyes. lol  A lot of people are bashing this movie, but it gave me a wonderful feeling inside. I know the book is bunkum, but the core premises aren't. i came out of the movie reminded of the signs of femininity that surround me. A little bit of me felt very special for a while. 

Some hilarious mindless movies coming out this summer. Talladega Nights: The Story of Ricky Bobby and Click look do-able. Sandler is going to be 40 this year, just a couple days before my own birthday. He's such a sweetie. Hope I can drag Roy or some other poor unfortunate soul out with me to see at least these two.

I love that color. I have a shirt from target that is that color. Sadly its a bit shorter than I normally like, but eh, its ok on my skinny days.

This is gathered at the front, between the boobs, and is the 'new longer length' from FatBug. I have issues with shirts shrinking in the front, especially. I HATE it when they start to show my belly, because I find it distracting.

Whatis this fatbug place you speak of?

And yes, if it doesn't cover my "pooch" I usually won't wear it. Thus the reason I spend alot of time in my boyfriends tshirts.

Fashion Bug. It's a nickname my aunts gave it.

Glad to hear something positive about The DaVinci Code. I plan to see it in any case, but I had only been hearing negative things about it. You are looking vibrant and good in these pictures, bye the way.

Maybe make that second pix a new icon... ?

Aw, thank you! I do like it, I think I'll do that.

Actually, since you have a paid account, maybe make *both* of them your icons, for different moods/purposes... (yeah, I like making your life difficult! :p ) They're both great!

Ahh, I'm not sure I like them both well enough. And making icons is hard, even here, because the pics are so big. My computer takes forEVER to load a pic. Besides, I think I've got almost all my icon spaces full.

The color is great, Anita! It does bring out the color in your eyes. The neckline is nice, too. :-)

Oh, you'd LOVE the neckline. ;-)

Lovely colour, and yes it does highlight your lovely eyes.

It's good to see someone else who knows a bit about the stuff expounded in The Da Vinci Code and doesn't get so focussed on the story that they miss all the 'good bits' ;)

Yeah, the book really turned me on when I read it. I did a lot of research after that, and I like what I'm learning.

But your eyes are GREEN... How does that shirt work?

That answers my IM question about which movie. Several people I know have gone to see it and enjoyed it. Supposedly it made $29m on the weekend so it's not hurting. I guess the real test will be where it is in 2 weeks. We wanted to see "Over the Hedge" last weekend but it hadn't started yet so we say RV with Robin Williams instead and it was fun

A little bit of me felt very special for a while.

listen to that little bit. you are special.

The shirt works cause it brings out the blue. My eyes are blue SOMETIMES. Depending on what I wear.......

Eh, twas just jeans, and the shirt. I didn't get any pics of the full shirt. I tried, but they just didn't turn out well enough to suit me.

Very beautiful color (really suits you!). And I am glad that a person whose taste I trust liked the Da Vinci Code (I would like to see it but I heard that it got bad reviews).

Eh, forget the reviews. Sometimes people get too caught up in detail and technicalities and forget to just lose themselves in a story. That's what this is for. Escapism.
