Opening Night: Sex and the City 2

Went to see Carrie and "the girls" last night...opening night!  Theater was packed and not a male in sight except for the ushers!  And they didn't let me down...it was great.  Abu Dhabi will never be the same!  Hope they continue with a third, fourth, etc...would love to see those ladies age!  They haven't lost their chemistry and the wardrobes were terrific...Christian Louboutin has replaced Manolo Blahnik...look for the gold shoes with the red soles!  And, Carrie never looked better!  It was a fun movie...great satire...


Some of the reviews are critical of the new identity for Carrie...but maybe she just grew up to realize what's important.  A review from Austrialia's news.com.au said she "continues to diminish herself for love, or what she perceives as love."  But I think Mr. Big summed it up best...



“After a while, you just want to be with the one that makes you laugh."




Ann Hornaday, in The Washington Post, said the movie was "garish, when it should be sumptuous, tacky when it should be luxe, wafter-thin when it should be whip-smart and sophisticated."  But I think she missed the point of the film's satire...Sex and the City has never been reality, and I, for one, hope it never will be!

Pac-man 30th Anniversary!

If you didn't see Google's homepage today, you must be deep in the rain forest! They're celebrating the 30th anniversary of Pac-man...gawd, am I THAT old! It was so-o-o-o-o much easier with a joystick! Well, you've got all day to try to improve your score...I'm trying to figure out how to put the darn thing on my blog so it's active...haven't succeeded yet!
