Losing the Bitch

I used to be an incurable romantic until my bitch persona and my grown-up cynicism took root. Now love stories don't warm me all that much- well, not the soapy, sniffing, crying kind anyway.. just a tingle every now and then.. ~LOL.

My hubby thinks I've lost by "girly charms." He thinks Im quietly mutating into a "boy" with my slacks and my ponytails, my short-trimmed nails and loafers (I work in a creative agency and you know how the crazy creative advertising/communication guys prefer to dress! Go figure! ~LOL). I hardly wear makeup unless I am requested to attend a "power" meeting to make a presentation or secure an approval. Most of the time Im in my loafers and jeans looking like a college student in search of a job (according to my hubby anyway ~LOL)

So what does he get me? A DVD of the Prince and Me (Julia Stiles) so I get to be more "girly" than usual!(my collection includes the strong women kind ~LOL - the killbill, laracroft, underworld kind!). I however preferred to watch the "Prince" during a night when he was away working. I don't like him staring at me to see how "affected" I was! Grrr!

The movie is the "fairytale" kind with a pre-med stude (Julia) stuck with the spoiled, prince-in-waiting (of Denmark) as a study partner. As expected, incognito.

He's out to have a little fun and she's bent on getting through med school.

The storyline is, as as all love stories go, "soapy," a "feel-good" movie.

..And I loved it! ~LOL! I even found myself startling my shih-tzus (3 out of 4 sleep with us in our bedroom) by laughing out loud when I saw the guy chasing cows (he gets to spend Thanksgiving with her!)

If you can spare a little less than two hours, have nothing better to do and waiting for a hubby who would gladly play "prince*" when he arrives, then go get a copy of the DVD. Who said we have to stop being little girls wishing for our prince charming simply because we grew up? Sheesh! Go look for one or better yet, help your frog you married "transform" himself into someone more "kissable!" ~LOL!

Oh "the bitch**" is sooo losing it! She's almost gone! ~LOL! Come to think of it, she is fast becoming the "pretend" and my blogging one, real. :)

* - a prince for me is defined by someone who is willing to give a heavenly footmassage that would make you go ohhhhhhh! ~LOL! ~ and i married one! lucky, lucky, lucky me! :) ~LOL!
