Day 2

Alright girlies, time for day two.  Is it fun yet?

What is your favorite movie?

This is hard because I have favorite movies in all the different movie categories!  Here is a sampling:

LONESOME DOVE!!!!!  This is at the top for a reason.  I love it.  My maiden name is Western....and I love a good cowboy movie.  The best one ever?  Lonesome Dove.  You will love it the entire 18 days it will take you to watch it.  If I were a prostitute in the old west, I totally would have married Agustus McCrae.  Yeah he's old and he's from Texas (boo) but he's still HOT. 



 Steel Magnolias is a movie I loved through all my adolescents.  I was going to name my daughter Shelby.  I can still quote long passages of this movie.  "My colors are blush and bashful, I have chosen two shades of pink one is MUCH deeper than the other."  The colors I chose for my wedding?  Pink.  Shelby was even a nurse.  Come on, she was everything I wanted to be!!!  Little did I know I would end up being more like Ouiser.  (That's the right spelling, I looked it up.)  I haven't seen it in years, but for nostalgia's sake, here she is.


Signs.  Signs is so good.  Anyone who knows me at all knows I am not the least bit into Sci Fi.  I hate it.  But if you think this alien movie is about aliens, you are totally wrong.  This movie is about faith.  And that's why I love it.  It may also have something to do with the joy I find scaring people who are watching it with me.  And the first time I saw it?  I was in a movie theater with Kim and Alton.  Kim screamed louder than I have ever heard her scream.....multiple times.  It was awesome.

I LOVE Steel Magnolias! My favorite character is Ouiser and my favorite part is when Clairee offers Ouiser as a punching bag for M'Lynn at the funeral! We'll have to get together and watch it sometime!
