Nicholas Sparks can be depended upon to write up some serious tear jerking stories. There are some movies that make me cry no matter what and his book turned movie 'A Walk to Remember' is one of them.
So when Pinklove told me I'd cry my eyeballs out when I saw 'The Notebook' I kept waiting for the tears and when it didn't happen I was left wondering if I was cured of this embarrassing movie blunder. Not so, I was forced into watching Charley (one of the other movies) again, and I was seriously dehydrated afterwards. Get a grip! They aren't even good movies really!!!
*Spoiler Alert if you haven't seen The Notebook*
Am I the only one who thought both Allie and Noah died at the end? They looked dead. And I thought this is where I probably should have cried but I didn't quite buy the dying together thing.
So if you are into this kind of stuff, the Nicholas Sparks super sweet stories packing a punch, (I believe that is how one of his critics put it) you should put 'The Wedding' on your list of books to read. It is the next book after 'The Notebook' and I loved it. Noah is alive in this story, that is why I asked about the ending to the last movie. It is a really great love story and an eye opener to how easy it could be to wander through life with out actually living it and appreciating the people you love.
I've been working on my stinkin resume. What is it about a resume that makes me want to pull my hair out? But once I'm done with the dreadful thing I've been excited to find a job with it. If there was a professional job to be had involving long drives, I would take it. A Professional Cruiser. (Not a gopher, to much stop and go in a car, BUT on a bike I think that would be an ideal job too! And not a trucker, tho I used to say I was going to drive trucks when I grew up) Put me in the car with music and I could be happy for days. I can't remember when I took this picture, one of the trips up north I guess since I've had to come up with ways to entertain myself. (No one was harmed in the process and I did have both hands on the wheel... at least I wasn't talking on the phone too right?)
If gas weren't so insanely expensive I would probably drive to the 4th of July fun in Cali just for the excuse to spend excessive hours in my car.
