What I'm Reading This Week #14
Annnnd we're revving into Friday. source I must start with a teary goodbye to Val Kilmer. No lie, three days before he passed I got the song " How Silly Can You Get " from the movie Top Secret in my head out of nowhere. I hadn't seen a reference, heard anything about him and definitely hadn't heard that song in 20+ years. I said to the Mr "I wonder how Val is doing?" then I soon got my answer. I remember seeing Top Secret at the drive in with Mom when it came out. When Real Genius came out on HBO, it was one of the few movies my Dad and I bonded over, is in my top five movies of all time and is the Mr and I's love language after I make him king of the winter carnival. source Anyone who followed Val's career and personal life over the decades knows he got a little out of the box and didn't settle for norms which also included his approach to his throat cancer.

I just had to get that. I saw it in the window the other day and knew that it was perfect. I know he is more of a valentine's thing but who needs valentine's day to say I love you?

DeleteStuff for no reason IS the best and means so much more!
DeleteMy hubs will buy me fun socks (I'm obsessed) out of the blue and will come home with flowers and beanie babies for me. He cooks dinner often, which is so nice when I work later.

I was stunned when he came walking through the door proud as a peacock. He said he wanted me to have a good Sunday with no stress so he took care of everything that needed to be done outside the house. It was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteMine are fun Christmas socks. Santa with pom poms on the back, Grinch, Snowmen, Reindeer, all of it.
DeleteWhat a good hubby! Points for sure!!
