Husband Clothes

Breath of fresh air. My husband fiiiiinally finished the project he was working on. It’ll be so nice to see him again. When he gets called in to troubleshoot at the end of a project (”end of project” = “crunch time”), this means working till 2 or 3 am every day 6 days a week for a month or until the project ends. Anyway, the movie he just finished working on is called “Body of Lies,” and it stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe. It’s about a CIA operative who finds a major lead to an Al Qaida suspect in Jordan.

Okay, I promised myself next time I commented on a project of my husband’s I would at LEAST describe the plot of the movie before discussing the actors in it (notice I did not say actresses. Sorry guy readers. I like discussing actors, especially, but not exclusively, hot ones). Moving right along, to me, Russell Crowe is one of those sneak-up-on-you hot guys. You look at him and think “hm, you look normal, as in identical to my brother-in-law except chubby.” Then as you watch his phenomenal acting, he gets more and more handsome. Then when you learn about his perplexing temper tantrums, he gets extremely intriguing, but makes you very thankful that you aren’t married to a movie star.

On the other hand, there’s Leo. (May I call Leonardo DiCaprio, like he’s my neighbor? Okay, thanks.) He’s one of those why-does-everyone-love him so much types. He’s kind of cute, but also kind of odd looking. Until you watch the movie he starred in with Matt Damon called “The Departed.”

Note on the movie “The Departed” (not to be confused with “Body of Lies,” the new movie that hasn’t been released.) Holy macanoli, you wanna watch one INTENSE movie–look out. (Please excuse the fact that I just used the term holy macanoli–I use terms like that on this blog to avoid cursing like a sailor as I do in real life. One of the many things I’m working on.) The intensity in “The Departed” is generated by Leo’s unbelievably convincing job of portraying his desperate, disadvantaged character. You will definitely be awed by his talent if you watch this movie. (And, girl note: If you didn’t think he was hot before, you’ll be his #1 groupie after you see the love story, namely his naked torso in makeout scenes, in this movie). You can get this movie from Amazon here.

Oh, uh, but back to my husband. Seriously, it’ll be so nice to see him again. And to stop worrying about his health. (I have this paranoia about no sleeping + too much working = heart attacks. If I were to mention this, he would make some really annoying joke, but…well, I can stop worrying now regardless, at least for a while).
