Missing You!

I've missed the Internet! Our broadband connection conked out last Tuesday, which turned out to be a big bummer. The fact that I was sick most of the week compounded my alone-in-a-deserted-island feeling. It was very frustrating; the customer service people at Globe got a mouthful from yours truly but that's another story. Let's just say that 24-hour cable TV just doesn't cut it anymore.

And so, I was excited no end when we finally got our broadband back this morning. But before I could catch up on things, I faced a full day; talking with mommies and doing some grocery shopping. Happily, my weekend outing ended with popcorn and 500 Days of Summer.

Having been in the land of the lost for the past few days, I have absolutely no idea whether the whole world has already seen this movie. But I just have to tell you that I fell in love with Joseph Gordon Levitt's Tom almost immediately. He's the kind of hopelessly far-gone character that you pray will get the girl in the end. But because this is not a love story, he does not get the girl. And that scene on the bench where he turns sideways and cries silently is absolutely heartbreaking!

And so, here I am surfing again, and in remembrance of all those crazy summers, when love was lost and found, I am playing The Smiths all night long. Here's a favorite :)
