A Good Distraction

Here is a swell movie to see with your engaged friends (I currently have one, and thank God for that): Bride Wars. Obviously it is a huge chick flick, and obviously it is geared toward those of us in “bridal mode,” but it sure is a fun movie. I’m biased of course, because everything in the movie made sense to me (the perfect dress? The color of that white is wrong!) in my current state. I still think you might like it. Kate Hudson is so cute.

The only thing I didn’t like is that some things I thought were ridiculous in the movie were actually things I am doing in my real life. I snorted some popcorn out about something stupid the brides-to-be were worried about…and later was able to apply it exactly to something I was spending so much time on myself. Reality check! This is not a competition, and while I am the most competitive person I know, the point is to have a raging party. Well, that’s the secondary goal. I guess the first one is to get hitched, but you know what I mean. Your raging party doesn’t have to be “better” than anyone else’s, it just has to be awesome. Mine will be the awesomest though.
