Yes, May came and went and I posted not a single thing. I'm a busy woman.
Remember a few years ago, I mentioned that I saw and enjoyed the "Star Trek" reboot? Yeah, so I just saw the sequel . . .

Oh, Jason
I've been re-watching "Arrested Development" in anticipation of Season 4 coming out next month. Aren't we all excited?

Good Outnumbers
I was in Boston for the first time 5 years ago. It's a beautiful, friendly city. I'm sickened and saddened by what happened there yesterday and still trying to understand why anyone would want to be as deliberately hurtful as that.
But I'm grateful to know that, as Patton Oswalt pointed out, the good will always outnumber evil. Always.

National Poetry Month - #2
As he is in the news today, and because I'm in the mood for some good love poetry, today I bring you Pablo Neruda.
Sonnet XVII
By Pablo Neruda
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
Love, We're Going Home Now
By Pablo Neruda
Love, we're going home now,
Where the vines clamber over the trellis:
Even before you, the summer will arrive,
On its honeysuckle feet, in your bedroom.
Our nomadic kisses wandered over all the world:
Armenia, dollop of disinterred honey:
Ceylon, green dove: and the Yang Tse with its old
Old patience, dividing the day from the night.
And now, dearest, we return, across the crackling sea
Like two blind birds to their wall,
To their nest in a distant spring:
Because love cannot always fly without resting,
Our lives return to the wall, to the rocks of the sea:
Our kisses head back home where they belong.

Happy Friday.

What Happened?
What happened to all the men? You know, men. Real men. Like those guys from the 60s?

National Poetry Month - #1
It's that time again (hallelujah!)- National Poetry Month. I am definitely in need of some good words to fill up and soak my winterized soul.
And how appropriate that one of our most celebrated poet's celebrates her birthday this month. So, here's some phenomenal Maya Angelou to start us off.
Phenomenal Woman
By Maya Angelou

The Wolverine: International Trailer
In anticipation of my upcoming birthday, Hugh Jackman released the trailer for his new Wolverine movie, which, of course, shows his shirtless and ripped torso multiple times.
As always, thanks, Hugh.

Living the life . . . for now
Yep, half-way through the Month of Marie, and I've slacked off on posting.
Sorry about that.
And then today, in a completely non-morbid way, I was reminded of my mortality and was inspired to share this.
I hope you're still celebrating. Heaven knows I am. Check out this sweet plant I just bought.
Yeah. I party pretty hard.

Oscars Review 2013
Oh, Oscars. I just can't keep away. I was tempted to this year with Seth MacFarlane hosting, but I actually think he did a pretty okay job. I can't talk about how upset I am about what's-her-name winning
for Best Supporting Actress, but at least she had on a horrible dress. Plus, "Life of Pi" won a few awards, and that made me so happy!
But on to the dresses. I know that's why you're here. Those whom I'm disappointed didn't make the list - Selma Hayek, Nicole Kidman, Naomi Watts - how could you let me down? You had such potential. Oh well.
First those in no particular order that I liked before we get to the top 3.

They Have Better Things to Do
I watched "Dennis the Menace" a bunch when I was in college.
{Why? Because we all did random stuff like that instead of studying. That's why.} And I was reminded last night how much I love that movie, especially this scene.
Joey is just the cutest.
