I'm an idiot

The other night my Mama asked me if I would go see I would go see "Nights in Rodanthe" with her. Being my always thoughtful and courteous self, I said sure. I somehow missed all the trailers on TV. I had no idea what the movie is about. I thought it was called "Knights in Rodanthe". I assumed it was some historical piece about knights in England or something. A movie along the lines of "Braveheart". Boy was I wrong. I really need to start researching this stuff. The movie is a total chick flick. Richard Gere is in it. Oh goodness. What did I get my self into? I looked up the trailer on You Tube (check it if you in the mood for boredom. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJ6pKLRZaGk) it does not seem to leave much in terms of suspense. It's about an inn keeper(Diane Lane). A guest comes along(Richard). They're both lonely for some reason(I guess that's the suspense)and they hook up with each other. Yawn. I never go back on a promise though, so I'll go through with it. I might get bailed out though. My Mama and Cindy are going to watch some other girl movie and they said they might go watch "Rodanthe" afterward. A cat can hope. Speaking of movies, I saw a commercial for the unfortunately named "Zack and Miri make a porno". Movie executives need to give a little more thought to these titles. I felt creepy just typing the title. No way I'm going to holler out the title to the 15year old girl working the ticket booth. I think mentioning porno to a girl that young might be a crime. I guess I could just by a ticket for a different movie and go into this one. But what if the title attracts your usual porno crowd. No way I'm chancing watching a movie in a theater full of guys wearing sweatpants and trench coats. Yuck. I think I'll have to wait till this is on pay-per view if I watch it at all. One more entertainment related note. The final season of ER starts tonight. I haven't watched this show in years. I stopped when the employees of the hospital started dying more frequently than the patients and Dr. Kovac banged all the female characters and was starting to make his second go around with them. You think OSHA would do some investigation into that hospital. They had shootings, stabbings, helicopters crashing at the entrance. Ridiculous. How is this show still on? My Mama has a huge crush on John Romain-Stamos(I know it just Stamos and he's not married to her any more but I just think it's funny to say it that way). Even the addition of him to the show couldn't get my Mama watch again.........Here's my football picks of the week.
