Rob and I had the privilege of escaping for an evening to go see a movie this past weekend. Tutu (Grandma Ann) is in town, and we took advantage of the eager babysitter! It was great. We used to go the movies weekly before E, and now that is a distant memory. I don't mind missing the theater, but I do love it when we can go these days. We got to go see "Crazy, Stupid, Love." It is the best movie I have seen in a LONG time. It was hilarious. It actually made me cry I was laughing so hard. It was the perfect mesh of girl/guy humor that every good date movie needs.
The ending was very Shakespearian, being that it had 5 plots going at once and they all came together at the perfect moment and had an ironic twist. Lately I feel that movies have been pushing the envelope of gross/sexual humor to make it shockingly funny, but this movie did a good job with the actual story. Yes there was some sexual humor for sure, but I did not feel that I could not "un-see or un-hear" anything in the movie. Most of the movie is Steve Carrel (sp?) learning to get his mojo back after a heart break while Ryan Gossling is his mojo tutor.
So to all the mama's and dads out there in need of a good romantic comedy but not to romantic and more of a comedy movie-this is it. Go see Crazy Stupid Love. It will make you laugh!

Happy you got a night out and got some good laughs in!!
So glad you got a good date night!! and good to know that's a good movie :) I bet Ann loved her night in with E also!
I wish that we lived close, because we could rock the double date! We love going to the movies, and I totally want to see this one! I thought that the preview looked great, but I couldn't tell if it was going to deliver true entertainment... so glad to hear that it did!
