look, it's sammy!

Before I left the dark, windowless cave, my cousin lent me The Devil Wears Prada. She had been to my place of work and thought that maybe if she introduced me to "The Devil," life might feel easier to me. Well it did...and then I found a new job, which unfortunately meant that Heddy ended up with some of my old duties...you can ask Heddy how she likes that ;)

After weeks of "We should go for coffee," "We should meet up after work," " I haven't seen you in ages" and similar conversations, last night, Heddy and I decided to go see the film version of The Devil Wears Prada. I had seen a few reviews that were lukewarm, but you know, for a summer movie based on a somewhat fluffy novel, it was a good movie. There were enough laughs, the changes to the story line weren't totally off base, although I was a little disappointed at the loss of the real Lily character...it definitely made for the very different ending...I don't know if they changed the ending because of Lily or if they changed Lily in order to change the ending. I loved Meryl Streep though. She was amazing and while the book made me realize my job wasn't as bad as it could be, the movie definitely reinforced that. We left Alex and the D-man to their own devices (actually, I think they were both working) and when we got to the theatre and realized most of the males in the audience were sitting next to the women who had dragged them there and they were pouting and looking bored out of their minds, we knew we'd made the right decision. And it definitely fit into the "chick-flick" category...Happy summer movie! Definitely worth it on a hot summer's night and even more so if you've ever had the ultra-demanding female bosslady!

Look...I made my very own Sammy!

That's all...
