Yesterday we took C to see WALL*E, which was as good as everyone’s been saying. (Though I did hear about a person who hated the anti-consumerism message, and was going to boycott Disney as a result. Yes, you heard that right. He’s going to take a stand for consumerism… by not buying anything.)
Anyway, we saw a preview for a movie called Beverly Hills Chihuahua, a truly dreadful looking cute-fest, the trailer for which featured hundreds of dogs talking, singing and dancing their way around an elaborate production number.
It was very realistic looking. Still, I turned to R after the preview and said, “Just because they can doesn’t mean they should.”
He burst out laughing and said, “That is the exact thing I was going to say. Word. For. Word.”
What can I say…

Just means you have a far deeper relationship than ever before. Your time together in wedded bliss, including the creation of three new perfect little humans, has fully evolved from the original and basic relationship you started with. You’ve now melded mind, body and soul.
Either that, or you just both hate singing and dancing chihuahuas.
Oh, it’s only a matter of time before you start finishing each other’s sentences…
You are a great family together. But will R. go with you to see Mama Mia?
Yes, I can identify. PH and I went to see the same movie as you guys, saw the same execrable trailer, and said almost exactly the same thing, at the same time. The relationship seems to be evolving to the point where we’re like the old joke where the comedians simply say the number of the joke to each other, and the rest of the group bursts out in laughter.
I’m choosing to believe that it means we are both equally brilliant and insightful, but I could be wrong.
PS. My guess is that C loved the chihuahas. Target marketing strikes again. When I was her age, I loved the June Taylor synchronized dancers on the Jackie Gleason show. There was a strong resemblance between their routines, and the dancing chihuahuas. No disrespect to the dancers intended.
Did C like it? I have had mixed reviews from kids her age.
Destiny indeed. Thank God for that. Think what havoc you could’ve wrecked on the lives of a couple of unsuspecting normal people had you both ended up with others! ha ha!
Fun post. It makes me happy for you.
Sherry, hard to say. She got bored at one point and had a lot of questions on the car ride home, but I think she’s glad she saw it. The characters drew her in, if not the plot. But she’s more… I don’t know… contemplative than most.
You know Madagascar 2 is coming in November, right?
Take her to see “Batman: The Dark Knight.” They say kids are going to LOVE it.
This is an odd blog title to read on one’s anniversary.
