Dad's Birthday

I'm sitting here drying my eyes after having cried my way through the end of "Marley & Me". For the majority of the movie I was happy and laughing, but the last 10 minutes or so, just did me in. I still consider it a good movie overall, I'll just have to add it to the list of movies that make me cry. But anyway... on to brighter events of the day.

Today was my dad's birthday, 68 years young. Most years we just have a quiet dinner out (sometimes in) and have cake. This year we kicked it up a notch. A friend of mine from work and her husband invited my parents and I to tag along to dinner and a movie. Dinner was absolutely delicious (as was desert).

The movie we saw was "The Last Exorcism" and I must say thank gosh its "the last" and not "the first". If you have seen the "Blair Witch Project" then you have absolutely no reason to see "The Last Exorcism". My friend and I laughed most of the way through it at the stupidness and for being a "horror" movie, it only had one jump out of your seat moment. The movie was so disappointing. The only bright spots of the movie were the scenes where the girl was being controlled by the "demon". If you don't like cameramen running with the camera, this is also not the movie for you. My friend has assured me that next time, I get to pick the movie :)

Movie aside, my dad had a really good birthday. I think he even caught the movie bug. He expressed interest in seeing a movie for my mom's birthday in a few weeks, lol.

Well its 4-close today for work, so I better get headed to sleep. Everyone have a good night/day.
