How long has it been since you’ve seen E.T.? It had been years for me. I completely forgot that Elliott’s mother is a single mom. Do you remember the scene in the kitchen with Elliott says “Dad would believe me.” Wow.
And Benjamin LOVES this movie. There are flying bikes, the moon, frogs, toys, an alien and candy.
Here’s a clip with the scene about Dad running off to Mexico with another woman. WARNING – Elliott’s brother calls him “penis breath” (which I think is hilarious) but it may offend some of you. They don’t make them like this anymore.

I still haven’t seen the new Must Love Kids show on TLC … my neighbor is recording it for me, so this weekend I’ll catch it. Just had to pass this interview on in the meantime. Single mom, Tracy Paye is fantastic.
So what do you think about the forthcoming controversy Tracy expects as a fall out for introducing her 6-year-old daughter to the men on the show? I don’t want to say anything until I’ve seen the show but I do know that I love Tracy’s attitude – just another amazing single mom!
There’s a giant smudge on our shots from San Francisco.
It’s staring at me and I’m staring at it – wishing it away. But there it is … smudging up every one of our scenes and interviews.
I’m going to make the video anyway. Smudge be damned. I haven’t screamed at the smudge, I haven’t even looked back. The smudge is there and there’s absolutely nothing I can do about it. The only thing I can hope is that you all can overlook my little smudge.
So how are you guys? I feel like the trip completely stole me away for a while.Any unexpected smudges in your lives? Are you looking past them and just chugging right along?
P.S. The video is still going to be amazing (thanks to Morgan the Magnificent, aka Modern Single Momma). So stay tuned. And I’m back home to Benjamin and my extremely trashed house.
My Sex and the City Movie Review: Cheese, cheese and more cheese – with a few hints of the Sex and the City we knew and loved.
With the exception of a few memorable scenes, the Sex and the City Movie was a bit of a let down. I didn’t hate it, but I definitely didn’t love it. And one thing is for sure, I won’t be watching it again. Something I can’t say about every episode of the show, all of which I could watch over and over again.
It’s because each episode left me feeling uplifted about being a woman and they always had mini-dating lessons. This movie’s lesson – happiness can only be found if you’re in a relationship (unless, of course, you’re addicted to sex). Oh, and you can also find happiness by purchasing a Louis Vuitton handbag or a pair of Manola Blahniks. The brand placement in this movie was out of control.
I wish I could get into the details but I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who hasn’t seen it …

They were spotted leaving a Monaco hotel room this weekend en route to a boat trip. Wouldn’t that be nice? I wonder if they brought the kids? Armstrong’s twin girls are seven and his son is nine. Hudson’s son, Ryder, is just four. I’m sure they’re both keeping the kids out of the picture, the fling has only been going on for a few weeks.
I’m a huge fan of Kate Hudson. We’re the same age (29), I love her acting and she’s a single mom. Usually don’t even get into celebrity gossip but I had to pass this on. Just think, if they hit it off (for real) Lance and Kate could become Hollywood’s shining single parent couple.
And if you ever feel down about your divorce, like we all do sometimes, think on this … Lance Armstrong won seven Tour de France’s and survived cancer, but he couldn’t make his marriage work.
What do you guys think? Any news to add to this story that I missed? It’s actually kind of weird because both of their exes, Sheryl Crow and Owen Wilson, used to date.
If you’re really into this story, check out this post from an L.A. Times blogger – she thinks Kate is just another one of Lance’s girls and is shocked Hudson would fall for his smooth moves. And who says Kate isn’t taking Lance for a ride? Us single moms like to have some fun too! [click to continue…]
