Ellipsis Movie Of The Week... Minions

 

Scarlett Overkill: Work for me, and this will be yours... respect, power and...
Stuart: Banana!

Cast: Alison Janney, Sandra Bullock, Michael Keaton, Jon Hamm, Geoffrey Rush, 


This cool little movie came out in 2015, and I am just seeing it now! In fact, I watched it this past week, and thoroughly enjoyed the break from the reality of being a grown-up! I am going to be watching a lot more of these movies, because life is just too short to dwell on the distress of being an adult American in 2026! I was under a lot of stress in 2015, I was scared, and depressed, in the middle of a BIG move. It was the move that meant I would now be living in the San Joaquin valley. I could have used a day at the movies, just escaping from the stress of what ended up to be, the worst summer of my life, but I was so busy, I didn't even realize this adorable film had even been released! And that was is a shame, it would have been just what the doctor ordered! I'm sure you've seen it with your kids or grandkids, but it you haven't, watch it for yourself, I can't recommend it enough! Especially if you need a little while to visit with the kid who still lives in you!

Banana!

Today's Mental Health Day... Orange Cat Scully, Firefighter

 

"It's not selfish to love yourself, take care of yourself, 
and to make your happiness a priority.
 It's necessary."

~Mandy Hale

Yes, I took a day off yesterday from the stupid. There has been so much stupidity that I really can't believe what I am seeing, hearing and generally living through. But here I am, back with a visit to the Purrallel Universe, to take a break from every single thing grown up  and remind myself that life actually can make sense, if done right. I did the same thing earlier in the week, when Alan and I chose the original, Minions Movie, as my choice for that evening's movie! If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it! But for now, let's see how things go for, Orange Cat Scully, as he learns to be a volunteer firefighter! Be sure to subscribe to them and if you can, drop them a tip, to support all the good folks behind this wonderful account!

And now a little music.
