Sleepy day

I will start off by saying that I did not get near enough sleep last night. Peepers started kicking at his door about 6am but i let him stay in there until 9am when i was able to peel myself out of bed. He is kicked back in the recliner with his honey toast and I am at the kitchen table thoroughly enjoying this morning. The sun is out and shining in my kitchen, I have a lovely cup of caffeine right by me and I am finishing off the milk duds from last nights movie. Plus we cleaned the entire house last night (except our room which never gets clean it seems) so its nice and peaceful.  Perfect. I am having a wonderful morning. There will be, however, a nap for me as soon as Peepers goes down.

We had the worst movie night last night. Dont get me wrong here, I love love love the classic books. I am a big Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, etc. fans. Sooo we got the latest adaption of Jane Eyre. I like that book. Every movie I've seen of it has been a little dull, but not bad. THIS one however, made by a Cory Fukanaga...is in true japanese style. There is 10% dialogue and 90% watching Jane mull things over and looking at her face while she just stands there not answering questions from the other characters. I heard that this version really delved into the Gothic, psychological part of Janes mind. From this perspective we find out that she is retarded. Plus it was like the writers took the cliff notes and made a movie about it.

We watched the 4th Pirates as well...they are milking that story so much. Johnny depp didnt even seem in character for most of it and the scenes were just a hodge podge of ideas. Was weird. It got better towards the end, but I wouldnt reccomend it.

Ok im being summoned to go cuddle and help Peepers watch a movie so I have to go - i'll be back later.
