My Movie

Hi- So, since I've gotten my computer I more or less have been watching movies non-stop. And now have completely envisioned my blog's major motion picture. I'm sure you are all waiting anxiously for the release and I am too. And with each blog post, I can see the movie deal getting closer and closer. My vision is rom-com. I think my life would really translate well as a romantic-comedy minus the romance. Or maybe I'm just still in that beginning part, you know the one, I'm in the montage: Marisa at work in cute red dress. Marisa blogging on her bed. Marisa on a weird date in a restaurant. Marisa laughing with friends. Marisa drinking coffee with second weirdo. Marisa at work in a cardigan. Marisa blogging at a coffee shop. Marisa walking. Cab honks, and Marisa trips and spills her coffee.

I am a big fan of these montages, and foresee several in my movie. Another one would have me getting skinnier and skinnier. The actress playing me would wear a fat suit. I think for movie purposes, we could make me a little chubbier and make the transformation more great. Think "Devil Wears Prada" when Andy finally goes into the Runway or Vogue or whatever closet. We'll have one of those, with really cute outfits. (I think about this particular montage on my way to work almost every day).

Now since this is a rom-com, I'm thinking to tie in the blog, a man needs to fall in love with me through reading "Nothing Tastes as Good as Skinny Feels" and then through a series of serendipitous events we meet. And one of us, or both of us (I haven't figured this out yet), can't stand each other in real life. Then through a few more montages, love songs, awkward moments and more serendipitous events we fall in love. The End. This doesn't necessarily have to happen in real real life, I mean I suppose it would be nice, but I'm fine with blurring the reality lines. I know Oprah would have a fit, so that's why my blog will probably work best as a movie and not a book. I'd be happy with either and if Oprah wants to have me on her last season- I would be thrilled to go. I'd have a lot to tell her about.

Just wanted to share my movie thoughts. You guys can be part of a montage too if you want. We'll work out the details but, picture people around the world on different types of computers reading the blog. It would be so nice.

See ya later alligator(s),

PS. The picture is of me and Adina at our Oscars night. Maybe next year we'll be there celebrating my film...
