little later...

I have forgotten how amazing The Sound of Music is. It's on right now. When I was little, I didn't care all that much about the romance between Maria and the dad. I just didn't care. I liked the puppet show, them learning how to sing, the storm when they become friends, them wearing curtains as "play clothes." Now, I was just watching that scene where the Captian professes his love and they have that whole silhouette part of her singing,

"Perhaps I've had a wicked childhood.
Perhaps I've had a miserable youth.
But somewhere in that wicked, miserable past,
there must have been a moment of truth.

For here you are
standing there
loving me,
whether or not you should.

So somewhere in my youth or childhood,
I must have done something good."

Ahhh...so great. Anyway, his face, his EYES while she's singing to him, oh my GOD, I see why my mom's generation absolutely melted over Christopher Plummer. He's so handsome. Not hot. He's handsome. And that scene had me all nervous and excited. She loved him, he loved her, and neither of them knew. And now, he's telling her she loved him and it was everything she ever dreamed could happen, but never knew it would. I LOVE romance stories.

So, then it gets all crazy with the Nazis. I never understood that when I was little - obviously not. It just got all dark. Ralph (pronounced with that a like an o in olive" turns into an asshole who tells Liesl that he has better things to do than visit her. Liesl is beautiful. Those eyes are incredible. Growing up, I wanted to be Brigitta. I just thought she was the coolest, and I don't know why.

Wow, I'm watching the end - it's so strange! Who even remembers this part at the end where they're fleeing the country and they're pushing the car out of the driveway so the Nazis don't see them leaving. Weird. Then they walk to Switzerland, right? Do they have any money? What happens then? So strange.

Work is not worth mentioning. I got reprimanded today briefly by one boss for doing something another boss said I could. It wasn't worth that whole, "He told me I could," because then I would have two bosses upset with me. Let's just say, she was such a psycho bitch. She chased me down to yell at me. I just placed her on the People Who Suck list and groaned a bit more for having to take the heat for the lack of organization going on. When I told the nice boss what happened as he continued to do the very thing I was yelled at, he said she was wrong and her yelling was ridiculous. I REALLY wanted her to walk in and see EVERYONE else doing what I was doing, but alas, she did not show. Nothing is more frustrating than not being able to tell someone off when you want to.

I'm going to go. I read more, so I feel less rotten. Yay.
