I'm a Sex & the City fan myself, have a tight friendship with three friends (making us four), and always wondering how what I'm watching and soaking in relates to me. I wonder what I would do in the situation a writer came up with, whether I would do what the characters do (often not, for numerous reasons) or how other people in my life would react. I love romantic comedies, drama, action, sci-fi, mystery, and even doomsday stories. Good thing I like so many different genres....there's usually one available for whatever mood! <br /><br />How's your neck? I hope its improving. Glad you got to take some time to just enjoy a good show/movie!! :>Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06572568205513606978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879444927890349292.post-91541273322374807232009-09-09T13:14:14.174-04:002009-09-09T13:14:14.174-04:00Yeah, I have to say that I like the show a bit, ev...Yeah, I have to say that I like the show a bit, even though I hate to admit it. Some episodes are way too vulgar for me, but the ones that aren't so bad are funny and insightful I think. Great thoughts.<br /><br />I agree w/ the previous commenter that I like the characters w/ the happy endings. I'm a sucker for romantic comedies for that very reason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879444927890349292.post-5115117453198212642009-09-09T04:50:21.579-04:002009-09-09T04:50:21.579-04:00I've never seen Sex in the City.

Oh well!<br /><br />My favorite characters in movies are always the ones that get the fairy tale ending. Serendipity is my favorite movie (and word by the way). I like the movies where every thing ends up the way it should be!<br /><br />I'm having a giveaway on my blog.

Anyway, I can not get enough of the movie Sweet Home Alabama. I just want to be her! I love Reese Witherspoon and Josh Lucas in #1 on my "list". Ha ha! I guess I relate to that whatever it takes kind of girl that Melanie is. I took off after my dreams right after high school too. Although I did not succeed in the career arena quite like she did. I also relate to the pull she feels toward home yet how happy she is where she is. <br /><br />Thanks for askin!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12530025211720545692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879444927890349292.post-7967827418597795572009-09-08T14:54:47.480-04:002009-09-08T14:54:47.480-04:00hey lovely!

I do...Ya know I never really thought about it much. I do love SITC alot and have watched probably all the episodes over and over, wishing I could be a little like all of them! Saw the movie with a good friend, and that is what you should do, see it with a good friend or 2! Then saw it again on dvd with my bff the night before I got married! Not a good suggestion, considering what MOST of the movie was about, hehe. I guess Carrie is the one I would be most like, independent, but always wanting that man in her life for romance and love and whatever else....

However, after watching I was always left with a feeling of "now why can't I have friends like that?" I was so jealous of seeing those girlfriends sharing just about anything, I always felt I was hugely missing out. A few years back, I met my 2 best friends, and I now know I was right, I was missing out. We all need girlfriends, and I'm fortunate to have found 2!<br /><br />When it comes to identifying with character, I don't think I've ever done that. I do have a lot in common with Chandler from friends ... don't you dare laugh!!!!! I have a enormous soft spot for that character, in many ways so insecure but with an enormous sense of wonderful sarcastic humour to hide that fact. For the same reason I love the character of Dr. House so much, not that I think he is insecure, but I keep watching, savouring all of his rude remarks and eagerly waiting to catch a glimpse of his softer side...<br /><br />Like I said, a fun post to think about!<br />Love xxx PeggyPeggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16370275628174071352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879444927890349292.post-76627894458899983632009-09-07T23:27:41.171-04:002009-09-07T23:27:41.171-04:00Lisa how are you?

I am sure I would like it, but I just never got into it. I am jealous of your adventures to NYC. I have always wanted to go there. Maybe one day I will make it there. My husband has no interest in going there at all. I think we always see ourselves in shows that we really get into. I can't think of a show right now that I see myself as, but I am sure there have been many! Hope life is treating you well!

Anyways, the part where she dances with him and she is wearing a black see thrue dress and she is very provocative. Well, I can be provocative too and I love to play around and be a bit of a tees when I feel that the other one likes to play along too. I've been with my bf for 23 yrs now and I still play along. It's fun and it puts a bite of "piquant" in the relationship. I hope you feel better.

My all time favorite movie to watch when I am alone is Persuasion - I realize that I used to be like Anne, so quiet and acquiescing on the surface but so turbulent and passionate underneath. As I have gotten older and had some experiences that changed how I think about life, I now feel freer to pursue my personal goals and live my life the way that works for me no matter what others may think.<br />How are you doing with your headaches and neck problem?chris ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12672390271691455556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7879444927890349292.post-77829917652043251012009-09-07T16:46:24.224-04:002009-09-07T16:46:24.224-04:00Hi, my name is Julie and I am a Sex In The City vi...Hi, my name is Julie and I am a Sex In The City virgin!!!!!

Near the ending years of high school this show came on called One Tree Hill, and I still watch it to this day.
