Sunday's Random Thoughts

I have a few random thoughts/opinions running through my head, so hear it goes...

Last night I went to the movie theater with a friend, and after reading reviews of every movie that they had we settled on Crazy Stupid Love.  Now, I have heard several comments about the vulgarity of this movie, but I figured that it was rated PG 13, how bad could it actually be?  Um...apparently really bad.  I was under the impression that movie ratings were supposed to be used to let people know what age the movie is appropriate for. 

Here is a clue Hollywood: IF I, A 22 YEAR-OLD AM UNCOMFORTABLE DURING YOUR MOVIE, CHANCES ARE THAT IT ISN'T APPROPRIATE FOR A 13 YEAR-OLD!

The thing is, the movie was actually pretty decent (I am a sucker for people turning their lives around.) and if I based my opinion on the story line itself, it could be great, so I have to ask myself, "what was the point in all of the language, sex, and lack of class?"

All I'm say is, we need better choices.  We should be able to go see a romantic comedy without having to sit through 2 hours of trash to get to the happy ending.  (and yes, I know that I could have just gotten up and left, and I probably should have, but I didn't.  Lessons learned I suppose.)

Ok, I am down ranting.  I will end with a few random thoughts.

* Harry & David's Moose Munch Coffee is simply incredible.  If you like coffee, order this.  It's worth it, I promise!  www.harryanddavid.com

* I love music, and lately I am addicted to Anthem Lights!  Their music is incredible, and the lyrics are very moving. I love how they sing about struggles that most people don't like to talk about.  We like to pretend that being a Christian makes your world full of sparkles and butterflies, but that is the furthest thing from the truth.  Life is still so very hard, but thankfully we have God to give us the strength we need to get through it.  (My favorite song is "Freedom into Slavery" it's awesome, I promise.)  www.anthemlights.com

* Leggings are not pants.  That bathing suit that is 2 sizes too small and wouldn't cover enough of you even if actually fit is not attractive.  Boys...you are not at the beach, the pool, on a boat, or in your own home, so put a shirt on. 

Have an amazing Sunday!
