are you too pretty ??

overall it was a lazy weekend

~

sure we ran some errands, cooked some meals and watched some movies

but everything was dressed in a letterman's jacket 

with a big L for lazy on the front.

just for the beauty i watched "cairo" and fell in love with patricia clarkson. 

mr. holland's opus we've seen multiple times, but we watched it again because we do things like that. "one day" caught my eye because i love anne hathaway and i think i liked it. it dragged a bit in the middle, ended horrifically but reminded me that love and friendship are gifts not to be taken for granted.

did you read this by any chance. i found it interesting in so many ways. 

it's based on taking the "pretty" out of our posts and sharing things that in the past 

we've been afraid to share on our blogs. 

there's a number of blogs highlighted that are participating and i found myself reading many of them last night and wondering what i would share here, that i haven't shared before because i was afraid to tell you and i didn't come up with many things. i honestly think i'm a pretty open book. 

i mean sure, i didn't talk about my dad being in the hospital a few weeks ago, 

because that's his story, not mine. 

{but now that i've brought it up, he had two stents put in an artery and is doing fabulously well} 

~

my blog isn't my journal, so you're not ever going to find out my deepest darkest secrets or desires 

{well maybe when i have a girl tribe get-together at the beach you might} 

but everything else is pretty fair game as long as it doesn't hurt or embarrass anyone.

i hope you have the time to check out the link, as i would love to hear your opinion and thoughts on taking the "pretty" out of blogging. now granted, this isn't a new topic at all, but since it seems to have gone almost viral in certain groups due to twitter, i thought it might be interesting to explore.
