"Dear John"


My sweetie and I went on a date tonight.  We had dinner and saw the new movie "Dear John".  Did I like it? Well lets just say we went to WalMart as soon as the movie was over and I bought the book.  It's a real tear-jerker that's for sure.  But I think the reason I cried so hard....and my sweetie did too), is that so much of the movie was just like our own love story.  Since the first time I saw "The Notebook" (also written by Nicholas Sparks) it made me think of Ricky and I.  "Dear John" did the same thing.  A really good move and I reccommend it. Just make sure you take the Kleenex with you!

  2. Can you just tell us if it's a happy ending..sometimes his stuff is not happy! I do love his movies and books, but if it isn't a happy ending, I'm out! :) Glad you enjoyed, maybe I'll reserve his book at the library first!

  5. I'm stuck between desperately wanting to see it & terrified to, b/c Nicholas Sparks is known for his HORRIDLY sad endings & I don't know if my psyche can handle that right now! LOL

    I love your blog & am thrilled to find another Christian bandster out there. Well, I'm not banded yet, but am set for end of April/early May. Just a couple more consult visits & my preop to go. I'm just starting up my band-blog too, to record the journey: Band on the Run

    Blessings,
