How’d I end up at a movie? Much less Maid Of Honor?
Well for the third morning in a row, my internet radio station, Girls Rock Radio, started buffering badly (sorry, that’s geek speak for stuttering) and this time it showed no sign of letting up. Later I was to learn that there was a major fiber optic cable cut down in Chicago that messed up internet access for the entire upper midwest.
Frustrated, I just felt like escaping it all for a while. What with the money just pouring in these days (L.O.A. 
, I figured I deserved the get away. Now, my daughter saw Maid of Honor on Mothers’ Day with her Mom. I wanted to see it, too, but since they went together, I was left to find another way. Voila.
I was left wanting more.
It’s a timeless tale (not giving anything away here) of a boy and a girl. Girl finds another guy to marry, and boy suddenly realizes he can’t live without her. The previews looked pretty funny. And the flick was funny! I really do recommend it. Lots of it filmed in stunning locations in Scotland. Michelle Monaghan is really very lovely, and they couldn’t have picked a better male lead than Patrick Dempsey what with his “McDreamy” persona from Grey’s Anatomy. It all just worked.
And yet I was left wanting more. Not from the film – it was brilliant – but rather from my own real life!
