After both Emma and Ethan got sick a week ago, they apparently passed it on to daddy. Four the past 4-5 days, I gone through headaches, fever, vomiting, broken-glass-in-your-throat syndrome, etc.
The one good thing, I suppose, is that I've done a lot of sitting on the couch, either reading or watching movies.
Thanks to C. Dennis Moore and David Bain's "Double-D Review Spot," I rented Tucker & Dale vs. Evil. Oh my goodness, how had I never seen this before! I had a severe case of the giggles the entire time and was thoroughly entertained. It takes the "redneck hillbilly killers in the woods" sub-genre and completely flips it on its head. Highly recommended.
I also rented Watchmen, a movie I meant to see when it came out, and completely forgot about. Maybe now I know why. I watched a little over half of it last night, then just turned it off and went to bed. It plods along, the storyline barely moving, and I just couldn't take it anymore. I'll admit I've never read the supposedly brilliant graphic novel, and I'm not sure that would help or hurt my view of the film. Anyway, I have no desire to finish the DVD. Oh well, the movies were 2 for $1, and Tucker & Dale vs. Evil was more than worth that price!
