Bridesmaids

What is wrong with me?!....no don’t answer that.

Today I see what is probably the funniest movie I have ever watched…seriously thought I would be sick from laughing…but I left the movie theater in tears. Yes, along with be a confessed Know-It-All, and a compulsive worrier, I am also a teensy-bit emotional.

Today, as a reward for not completely losing my mind during D’s deployment, I went and saw a movie all by myself. I saw Bridesmaids. I will say it again, THE FUNNIEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!! Without spoiling anything, I will just say that potty-humor (as my mom would call it) amuses me. I don’t know if I’ve always been this way, or if it is the result of living with boys.

But why was I crying? I realized as the lights came up in the theater, that I was the only one there alone. I had come in, literally moments before the movie started and stumbled into my seat, which was thankfully not already occupied. Furthermore there was only one man in the audience who had come with what can only be assumed was his “new” girlfriend (no man in his right-mind would agree to come to this movie unless he was trying to impress a woman…I mean it’s called “Bridesmaids” after all). Anyway…..as the lights came up I see these groups of two and sometimes three woman still crying from laughing so hard, clutching their sides, and unable to speak without launching into another round of laughs. Then I realize, that not only did I come to this movie alone, that none of my close friends would have found this movie amusing. The only person that I would have felt comfortable sitting next to during this movie was my sister, N….and then I may have laughed so hard I wet my pants. Instead since I wasn’t sitting next to N or anyone else I just felt lonely and really sorry for myself.

Here is a trailer:

And here is some advice: go with a friend and if your sense of humor is anything like mine wear a diaper and save your popcorn bucket…just in case.
