dan in real life.

If you've never seen it, please do. It's for your good -- scouts honor. I'm actually watching it at the moment... Let me tell you about my favorite scene.

So, Dan (a widower with 3 girls) meets this woman whose name is Marie. The way they meet is adorable, but not as good as the scene to follow... Dan and Marie are at this "shack" shall we call it and they're simply enjoying coffee and this incredible looking blueberry muffin -- to which Dan attributes the description of "planet". Amazing. The scene, in its simplicity and purity, depicts what it is like when two people meet and fall in love. I think it can happen... Not to mention, the music for the movie is absolutely phenomenal. Sondre Lerche is a rare gem and adds such symmetry and life to the movie. If I could ever have a soundtrack for my life, it would most definitely be the music found in this movie.

Not sure that I could talk it up any more than I already have, so rent it. Watch it. Trust me, I know you'll love me for it :)

Your mom and I watched this and loved it too. The movie can't make me love you any more than I already do, so there.

I thought the move was alright, personally. I was waiting for a "that's what she said" half the time, then Megs had to remind me that we weren't watching the Office. Oh, hey, by the way, I started one of these too. Plus, I like your stuff. You write good, and your grammar ain't bad either.
