Because I'm exhausted-

you get a lazy post about the movie...without giving too much away.
The Break-Up was the only movie premiering last weekend, and a friend of Daddy's and his soon-to-be-ex-girlfriend wanted to go out before she went away. I thought it was going to be impossible, as I never want the babysitter having Little Man any more than she already does, and I hate asking my mother to take him unless it's for something important. Guess what showing they wanted to go to?

The midnight show.

Why?
Because she got out of work at Eleven.
Hello! I'm not awake at eleven on any given day, let alone coherent enough to spend money on a movie and WATCH IT!
I dropped my Little Man off at my mother's at nine, went home and took a nap. Yes, I had to take a nap before going to the theater, how sad am I? PLease take into consideration that any and every movie I saw when I was pregnant I have no memory of because I fell asleep every time. Daddy told me how many times he would look over at me and want to laugh because I was paying the theater nine bucks to nap in their stadium seats. (Which are not comfortable by any means.)
Okay, way off track...
The movie...
I liked it because it made me laugh at what we (men & women) go through during a break-up. We do some crazy shit, like trying to make the other jealous...it was very funny to look at it from the outside. (Not funny when we are actually going through it...) I like Vince Vaughn, he's funny. Jennifer Aniston- I will always see her as a Friend, but her character didn't give me the Friend vibe I thought it was. I think I liked it because of the reality of break-ups...though I imagine I would not be living with a person I just broke up with...
The different point-of-views help you understand that you're not the only one with the crazy psycho thoughts during a rough time.
I hated the very end. I guess I wanted the opposite to happen, and it didn't, so i hated it but it was realistic. Not everything has a happy ending in real life, right? (Did that give the ending away? Sorry...)
And I stayed awake through the whole thing! Yay me!
If this post sucked ass and the "review" of the movie didn't make any sense, I say: read the title of this post. I'm exhausted. I'm surprised I can speak in complete sentences today.
