Annie

I know I've said it before, but Annie is a kick ass movie.

Singing, choreography, stylish clothing, twirling skirts, acrobatic children, helicopters, kick lines, drunks and villains, --it's a masterpiece.

It was my turn to pick a movie and the boys were bitching about the girliness of Little Mermaid, so I decided on Annie, the only other girly movie I rarely even bother to try to watch.

Carol Burnett is fantastic in this, as is Tim Curry. All the kids are obviously truly talented.

little kid is mildly impressed, he's been busy working on a padlock with a set of keys that he found, but has been keeping up with the story line. Me singing the soundtrack at the top of my lungs gets on his nerves, but whatever.

Big Kid is very concerned about orphavillages. Although I've assured him there's pretty much a 0% chance of him ending up in an orphanage, he has been preoccupied with the thought all movie long. At one point he got teary eyed and said, "You know what I would miss if I was in a orphavillage?"

"What?" I asked, pretty sure the thought of living without me was moving him to tears.

"Dorofy."

Dorothy, the goldfish that lives in their bathroom.

Whatever.

I've got another song coming up, I just had to take a minute to remind you all how awesome Annie is.
