This can only end in tears

I have been felled by illness, which sucks. Haven't done any writing, got sent home from work yesterday (I looked that bad, apparently), and am now behind on my Christmas errands. Mostly I am spending all my time curled up in a ball and praying for a quick death.

So I am going to watch JP's Christmas Cottage movie. I suspect there may be trauma.

Damn... I actually liked this movie... Am I the only one? I know it was kind of simplistic and cheesy but it was still nice. And it was good to see Jared doing something different (I want them to film tons of movies!!).

Although I must admit the knitting porn and the puppy eyes were definitely a plus... dear god actually drooled the whole movie! (nd had to rewatch several scenes because I didn't even get what they were talking about, so focused I was on the pretty!!.

Nah, it was cute. A little OTT at times, but cute overall. And I looooooved the knitting porn! I haven't knitted in a while, but it made me want to go dig up my yarn. ;)

Feel better soon ♥

I've been contemplating that movie for a while now but it somehow sounds so lame... so it's not that bad? I mean, I can deal with a bad movie, as long as Jared isn't awful in it.

No, it's cute. It's terribly, terribly saccharine, so pack a toothbrush. But JP is cute and he cries very nicely toward the end, and there is plenty of knitwear. Don't expect greatness.

And thanks for the review - I'd been avoiding that movie due to the comments I'd heard. Maybe I'll check it out.

It's really not great, but it's not terrible. You just have to ignore the fact that it's based on real people and accept that it's basically a Hallmark Christmas movie. :)
