Did anyone watch the remake of Alvin and the Chipmunks?  I watched it last night. Could not.  Keep it together.  Every time Theodore said, “Can I sleep in the bed with you? I had a nightmare!” I started sobbing like a baby. Actually, I started sobbing every time I saw Theodore with his fat little CGI body and his big round eyes.  Okay, I admit it. I cried through the whole movie like a big sniveling wuss.

And it wasn’t the whole, “they’ve bastardized our childhood memories by remaking the classics” bullshit.  Because I think that’s preposterous.  You’re an adult now. It’s time to move on and let kid stuff be for kids. If you don’t like the way it’s been remade, then don’t watch it, or hang on to your childhood memory and let the kids laugh at damn CGI singing chipmunks.  And for a kid, it was an okay movie. But I’m twenty-five years old.  I can admit it: it’s not like the acting was great. It’s not like the graphics were even good. And it certainly wasn’t Ratatouille.

Still. I squalled like a baby through the whole thing.

I’m blaming it on my period.
