Last night’s movie was a total chick flick, “Under the Tuscan Sun” with Diane Lane. A college professor discovers her husband is cheating on her and gets divorced. He gets the house and everything in it. She falls into a deep depression, and her girlfriend intervenes by sending her on a trip to Italy. She comes across a house by chance and ends up buying it and trying to make a new life for herself in Italy.

What a cool idea. I’d like to skip the cheating husband and divorce and depression part, but I’m down with going to Europe. If any of you friends want to send me to Europe – perhaps France? – I will certainly be glad to go.
