This post was gonna be angsty and vague and filled with lots of emotion, but I'm incapable of sharing my feelings these days, so I'll save that for another day. Here's what it turned into

I love me some chick flicks, as I'm sure you all know. I love the girly stuff and the romance and the unlikely lovers and such. But I also have a special place in my heart for a certain type of movies known as MARVEL COMIC MOVIES.

I think it all started with my dad, to be honest. When I was younger, I always sat by my dad when we'd go to movies. Then as we got a little older, and my mom decided she didn't have to go to movies with us all the time if she didn't want to, my dad would take the siblings that wanted to see certain movies. As long as I can recall, I have always seated myself next to him. Then the Marvel movies started coming out. Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, Avengers, etc. Then it became me and my dad's "thing" to go to these movies together and/or have movie nights at home. At first I wasn't a huge fan, but I would go to be with him. Now I looooooooooove them. We don't talk during the movies because we get so into it, but as soon as the credits start rolling, we analyze all the small details we picked up on and the things we did or didn't like.

Today was Spiderman 2. YOU GUYS. Tears were streaming down my face. And that's a big deal, because if you know me at all, you know what my problem is with crying. I can't. But during this movie I thought "Surely she'll still be alive. SURELY she will not leave him like this." and even when the scene cut to the cemetery, and her family was mourning and Peter Parker stands at the headstone with Aunt May, I sobbed as I said to myself, "No. It's not her. I'M NOT DEAD."Yep. I had gotten so into it that I could actually picture myself as Gwen Stacy. She and I DO have a lot in common.

Also, Emma Stone? She's definitely a favorite. Such class. Such elegance. Andrew Garfield? What a BABE. He is the nerdy attractive that I feel like I could end up with someday. And the cutest toward Emma. Such a lovely pair.

Happy May, friends. And Happy Mother's day tomorrow! My mom is out of town, and I don't get to talk to my sister until next week, but I hope you have a good day...

Love Always,
Lize.

You're my backbone, you're my cornerstone.
