Searching for ... new movies to watch

On Monday night I watched “50 First Dates” (if you haven’t seen it, you need to. GREAT movie!) while simultaneously watching “Searching for Bobby Fisher” (I am an awesome channel flipper, my skills would make you so jealous I think you’ll scream!) That makes twice in one month, for a movie that’s been around for awhile … I think someone is telling me something: 1. That I need to start paying for a few newer movies, or, 2. That I'm watching too much television.

I choose to ignore both of those, believing instead that I am being given permission to buy another movie for my collection. Since I am not one to deny myself frivolous urges, I went to Amazon and added the movie to my wishlist.

I then went out and did some “Searching” for Josh Waitzkin, the chess phenom that this movie centers around. Such a heartwarming film! The movie is based on a book by Josh’s father. So, of course, I now need the book. Then I found that a grown up Josh has created an interactive software program to help wannabe better chess players; you guessed it … I need that too. :)

I love me this week and I’m not afraid to tell me!
