Cut Your Losses

It's been quite the week.

I finished off my week today with a mad binge of shopping (albeit Goodwill shopping, but still...)

And then I fell asleep at 9 pm, only to fully wake up at 10:30 p.m. What to do?

I decided to watch one of the movies I'd been hanging onto, thanks to Netflix. The movie was called "Finding Amanda" with Mathew Broderick. It was about Las Vegas so how bad could that be? Bad. Very bad.

I felt the same way about this movie that I felt when watching that monstrosity of a movie with Ben Afleck and Jennifer Lopez ("Gigli" or something).

I started watching and realized that it probably wasn't that great of a movie, but I should reserve judgment and give it a chance because, after all, Mathew Broderick and Maurna Tierney were in it.

And then, about a third of the way into the movie, I realized it really wasn't going anywhere, but I'd already watched it for a little while, invested some time into it and should finish out the movie because what if it had a really good ending? And, since I'd already put my time into it, I didn't want to just turn it off....it really couldn't be that much longer or worse.

But it was.

I should've cut my losses and turned that damn dvd player off.
