Mom and I went to this movie tonight and there wasn't a dry eye in the theatre... I tried really hard to contain myself...until I got out of the parking lot only to pull over because I just started balling. This movie hit home for me...In a few different ways. 1. My sister and I call each other Sissy & 2. When the boy kisses the girl she says, " I can taste your citozin"....I turned to my mom and said, "did you hear that?" I kind of had a moment there. Citozin is a Chemo drug and that is what I was on for about 2-3 mo. And am hoping that I don't have to go back on it. I don't have cancer. I have/had Wegener's Granulamatosis, and right now I'm in remission. It's only been a month or 2 since I've been on my maintenance drug and I had to have blood work again yesterday b/c the Dr. noticed that my levels are high again. I hope not b/c then that means I have fallen out of remission and will have to go back on the citozin..at 200 mg. vs. 150.
It really was a great movie. And I LOVE the Baldwin boys.. Alec was in this movie.

I really want to read that book! I always have to read the book before I see the movie so I can say how the book is so much better than the movie. I am nerdy like that. I love Cameron Diaz and I think she doesn't get enough credit for being a great actress because she has played so many silly parts...she is so good in "In Her Shoes" she really is a great dramatic actress.
