Nothing like a breezy cool night on the balcony by MYSELF!\u00a0 All boys are downstairs watching a movie and really I am not alone,\u00a0 there are three doglets roaming around up here with me. Perfect. Took the boys to see Kung Fu Panda today.\u00a0 A big step for me as I am so over kid movies.\u00a0 But with Jack Black and Seth Rogen…..I seriously can’t even tell you how much I love Seth Rogen.\u00a0 I would pay good money just to hear the dude laugh. It was a good movie.\u00a0 A good message. So speaking of a good message- for all you avid readers out there… sometimes I need to be talked into not putting a book down.\u00a0 Like the Kite Runner for example.\u00a0 I had a hard time getting into that book and then midway through where the the little boy gets “assaulted”\u00a0 I was done.\u00a0 See I don’t like to read stories like that or see movies like that.\u00a0 I like comedy.\u00a0 If I want to see bad stuff I just turn on the evening news.\u00a0 Anyway, my friends talked me into finishing it, and it was fine.\u00a0 But I didn’t LOVE it and I certainly wouldn’t read it again. Recently I started reading Eat Pray Love.\u00a0 At first I really liked it, all the talk about Italy, good food, relaxing and having fun.\u00a0 I was all over that.\u00a0 But just when I was trying to figure out what my word was (some guy she meets in Italy tells her that every person, every city, state, etc- has a word that represents it)- I loved this idea but had a hard time picking one word for myself.\u00a0 Anyway as I am still pondering the word, her stay in Italy ends and she moves on to India.\u00a0 Where everything changes.\u00a0 Now it’s all about meditation, calmness, seriousness…. and I am BORED.\u00a0 I put it down and have yet to pick it back up.\u00a0 Please talk me into picking it back up- or not if you think it sucked.\u00a0 And if you have any good books you can recommend for the beach let me know!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-529","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-elisalou"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=529"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/529\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=529"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=529"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elisalou.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=529"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
