Who do you most want to smooch on New Year’s Eve? My husband, this is our first New Year’s Eve as husband and wife!
What do you want the most as a holiday gift? Garmin Forerunner GPS watch for running, so I can track my pace and distance accurately. I could have used one in the NYC marathon this year, so hopefully it will inspire me to run some big races in 2012.
Catch Up on Summer’s Movies So Far
Robots, smoke, and explosions, oh my!
It’s nearly the July 4th holiday! Yes, summer is in full swing–and you may not have noticed that a ton of blockbusters have already hit theaters, with even more to come. In anticipation of some much-appreciated time off, here’s a movie guide to help you spend a few hours in air-conditioned bliss:
Today, June 29: Transformers: Dark of the Moon (official site), 3rd in the series. Shia LaBeouf and a girl who isn’t Megan Fox run around with lots of CGI-robots and loud explosions.
Friday, July 1: Larry Crowne (official site), with American treasures Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts. The cute “grown-ups” romantic drama for people who don’t want to watch robots.
Friday, July 8: Horrible Bosses (official site). The star power of Jason Bateman, Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston, Jamie Foxx, Colin Farrell, and Colin Farrell’s horrific combover makes this one look like a winner.
These movies have already been released–better hurry up if you still want to catch them on the big screen. Click to go to the trailers.
Thor, Bridesmaids, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, The Hangover 2, Kung Fu Panda 2, X-Men: First Class, Super 8, Green Lantern, Cars 2, and Bad Teacher.
It’s a lot to keep up with, but may you find a comfy seat at your favorite theater and make it through. (Or you could just spend more time outside and Netflix everything in the fall.)
