What did you think of Elizabethtown? I didn't intend to see it at the theatres, but will probably rent it when it comes out on DVD.

Interesting about your nickname. That is exactly what my youngest sister's nickname is as well. I don't call her that, but everyone else in the family, including her husband, does.

I loved E-town. In fact, I've already seen it twice and will be buying the DVD as soon as it comes out. I know a lot of folks have been critical of Orlando's performance in it, but he really can act. And contrary to something I read this morning, I didn't think his accent was bad at all. The Kirsten Dunst character is a little, um, different, but not so weird that it's out of hand. And the foodie in me loved Paula Deen's cameo. All in all, I thought it was a nice little movie.

Shall I assume you're talking about 'Kimmie Sue'? My friend Linda started calling me that and it kinda stuck. I forgot one on the list, though. My mom calls me "Dutch". And has absolutely no explanation for it-she's just called me that since I was a little girl.

You've not been on LJ much in ages. Everything OK?

[celtprincess13.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for asking! I don't really like this time of year. Plus I have NO energy, which I was just recently reading was yet another symptom of PCOS. I am going to another doc for that in December though, so hopefully...*crosses fingers*

Also, my life is so deadly dull, I just figure no one's interested! I still read everyone's stuff though. And I've enjoyed your posts regarding Baby Pineapple and your NaNo stuff.

I have The Big Easy in a box somewhere. Dennis Quaid is H-O-T!! :D

[celtprincess13.livejournal.com]

I've watched it so many times, I have the dialogue memorized. And yes, I'd say this is my favorite of his movies because he's so hot as Remy. Yum, yum!

17. Where would you like to retire to?
Hawaii

I am soooooooooooo with you. :)

[celtprincess13.livejournal.com]

Cool, company! We can sit on the porch and drink margaritas (or your drink of choice, of course!)

See, I know I want to go somewhere warm to retire and yet not be a cliche, so viola--Hawaii.
