'It's Complicated' Trailer

SPOILER ALERT! I am going to see this. Why?

Because Meryl Streep is awesome (did you not see her on The Colbert Report?) and I sort of wish she was my aunt. Not my biological aunt, but the other kind, where you call them 'aunt' just because your mom tells you to, never questioning the logic, although if asked you couldn't tell anyone which side of the family she comes from, until one day you realize 'Aunt Meryl' is just one of your mom's friends who she went to college with and got her caught blazing up outside the dean's office, and that's why we don't talk about November 1975, thank you very much, except when Aunt Meryl totally spills the beans one Christmas after one too many sips of Zinfandel and after making out with your actually uncle Tom (who might I remind you, was only divorced last April). Family ties, everybody!

Anyway, that kind of aunt. Rock it, Streep!

OMG! This movie is about my life! Divorced...ex-husband...etc. etc. Sometimes being the "other woman" is the sweetest revenge... Love the post!

Haha, hopefully your life comes with a little less crazy Alec Baldwin. Hey, unless you're into that sort of thing!

Thanks a lot!
