After all these months of it languishing in a steep pile, I finally remembered to watch The Princess Bride, which Dave loaned us all the way back in January. Here it is, mid-April, and I just got around to it, but it was probably worth the wait. Cute story, everyone, I finally admit it. Much like my dad considers himself a member of the experiment's control group because he never saw Titanic, I managed to get through all these years without The Princess Bride. It's a fun movie, and I see why everyone was so enthusiastic about it, though I think I'm coming to the party a little late. Many jokes I've heard before make a little more sense now, though! (Let's just say that "marriage is what brings us together today!"--Ben)
Now I just have to get to A Christmas Story so I can return the DVDs before the 2010 swap party...
These are some photos from Sunday, when the sun actually blessed us with her presence. She's fickle, this Charlottesville sun! (Not like Aten-Ra, her great grandaddy!)
In the meantime, at least it's good movie-watching weather, good for bundling up and hunkering down. Plus, the Neon is sold, plates are returned to the DMV, we finally got an appropriate television stand, and about 65% of my to-do list is crossed off. We'll dream of sunlight and think about winter in hoodies while we watch quality programming. ;-)
(Food Network in HD makes watching AB even more enticing than before!
Avocado cake frosting? Inconceivable!)
