Late Nights

It is really late for me. Normally I go into a coma about 10:15 - 10:30. However, when my husband travels I find I have a much harder time going to bed and/or falling asleep. I am much more sensitive to the different sounds and wake up much more easily. Tonight, though, I cannot blame it all on his travel. My son and I went to see the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean - At World's End". It was really a good movie, although some of the fight scenes seemed to go forever. It is a very long movie - 3 hours - which did include a few previews, commmercials, etc. We laughed at some scenes, shut our eyes in others.

I love going to the movies. I am a person who completely immerses myself in the plot. I cannot watch horror movies for that reason. I would never be able to go to sleep! I am a romantic at heart, and movies should always have a happy ending! Movies are an outlet for me - a way to be the person I want to be and live in someplace different for a short time. Of course - I am always the heroine - strong woman - yet vulnerable. Well at least in the movies I can be!
