Here is a list of productive things I could have done this afternoon:
- Fold clothes
- Change lightbulbs
- Clean out the fridge
- Straighten my office
- Work on script
Instead, I chose to lie (yes, this is the correct verb…I looked it up)
on the bed (totally different in my mind that lying in the bed of course)
and watch Notting Hill with my delightful daughter.
It was one of the rare times that E! wasn’t showing Sex and the City (the movie)
on its regular ‘Movies We Love’ time slot or Sex and the City (the series)
the other 80 percent of the time.
Perhaps E! should be called the SJP network. Just sayin.
Anyway…I’m not actually going to list 162 reasons why I love this movie,
but I will tell you that it’s in my top ten favorite movies of all time.
And I might also add that it makes my top ten list
of movies that I will almost always watch if they are on TV.
Which in case you’re wondering are two completely different lists.
And which is probably a whole ‘nother list poem of its own.
But I’ll save that for a day when I have other important things
to not-do like pluck my unibrow or unload the dishwasher.
