Long time no see, let's do it the 50 Shades way!!

My honest opinion about Fifty Shades of Grey... I liked it. I went with low expectations because I've heard horror stories from everybody, but I listened to the books (which are somewhat poorly written) and I wanted to see it. If you read all 3 books, you know there is a story and not just sex.

Ok, here it goes... It isn't about the sex, please don't expect porn because you are going to be sadly disappointed; it's R rated and it is not Cinemax. Is not amazing acting, I thought they were pretty decent; but this is not an Oscar worthy movie. Yes, she laughs every times they are going to get busy, but think about it... she is "inexperienced", it was more of a nervous laugh; like shit, what did I get myself into. The movie is more about them meeting and their relationship evolving... very little sex, and I'm ok with that. I thought it followed the book as much as any movie can in 2hrs, no movie will ever be a play by play of the book. The cast: A lot of people have issues with the way she looks. Ana is supposed to look like that, homely, not well kept, she is not wealthy like Kate, she is shy, and insecure... so, I think Dakota is a good representation of Anastasia. I thought Jamie Dornan was good as Christian, although, I think that Matt Bomer would have been amazing! Talking about Matt Bomer, the trailer for Magic Mike 2, hotter than 50 Shades! You're welcome!!  ;-)

These are my 2 cents!!

Ice cream....

Yum!!

You know you are a mami when...

you haven't posted on your blog for 4 months!!  So much going on, but so much to talk about. I will be posting this week!! Promise!

You know you are a mami when...

when your 2y/o asks in a full sentence "mami, I want to watch Airplanes. Please" and you suck it up and watch it for the 2nd time within 3 hours.

Me likey... audiobooks!!

I have about an hour+ commute to work each way, so I spend a lot of time in the car. One way to pass the time is listening to audio books. It is easy, entertaining, and it makes the time fly by. Sometimes I get home, park in the garage, and stay there for a minute so I can keep listening.... from time to time my hubby comes and check on me when I do that. 

I have read many books that I love, like:

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Tori Spellling Books
Fifty Shades of Gray - trilogy

----The list goes on----

But, in the last few months I have been introduced to many multi-books series that I love:

Poison Princess "The Arcana Chronicles" by Kresley Cole

Divergent, Insurgent -- and I will listen soon to Allegiant by Veronica Roth
*Awesome narrator - same narrator as the Poison Princess... very talented!!

Naked Werewolf series by Molly Harper

The problem with series, is that once you read them you might have to wait a few months or a year for the next book to come out.

I'm currently listening to Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn.

I got curious about this book after watching a preview of the movie a few days ago. The movie is coming out I believe October, but I couldn't wait... it looked so good, I had to know more. So far I'm hooked!!!

If you spend a lot of time in the car, give audiobooks a chance. They have an app for Apple or Andriod phones. Enjoy listening!!!

Ok, so I'm totally a reality show addict... I was going to use the word that rimes with shore, but this is a family friendly blog!! I think 2 or 3 ago the show "Most Eligible Dallas" premiered on Bravo, and I was completely hooked. Hey, I live in the DFW -- Dallas-Fort Worth area, so I can live vicariously in the Dallas cool and beautiful socialite scene through this people, right? So, I fell in love with Courtney... yes, the girl that got steamy kissed against the wall by best friend/bad boy Matt. So hot!! 

Anyway, last year Bravo gave her, her own show "Courtney Loves Dallas", where we follow her after she quit her job in retail and she becomes a full time fashion blogger. #Iwantthatjob!!! The girl might be a little ditsy in some areas of her life, but she is a smart cookie and has made a name for herself. She is collaborating with Bauble Bar on some awesome pieces. So, all that to show you this... look down, now!!
