Dear Insomnia,
I hate you.

Once again, it is well past my bedtime and I am still awake. weee! Laney and I spent the evening at the theater, literally, the entire evening. We got there at 7:20 and left at 12:40. First, we watched Mr. Brooks.
I went along for the ride, watching Mr. Brooks. I hadn't seen any previews b/c Ryan screens out the scary stuff so that I can fall asleep easier and not have nightmares once I do fall alseep. Well, I had really no idea what it was about and I was certainly shocked when I found out. There were many gun shot wounds and more blood than I was prepared for. The story and the commentary from the people around me kept me firmly rooted in my seat. It was quite the movie experience. The gore made Laney feel ill, and left uncomfortable images for me to relive in my nightmares, so we decided to watch yet another movie.
Enter Georgia Rule. In this case, I had seen previews, but they give nothing away as to what the movie is actually about. There were several points in the movie where I thought "Hmmm, I really don't know where this one is going.." Unlike in Mr. Brooks where I felt like it wasn't quite dead giveaways, but I definitely knew where things were going. In Mr. Brooks, as you solved one thing correctly, the director threw in a twist, that was delightfully surprising (minus the bullets & blood).
All in all, it was a good night. If only I could just go to sleep.
