Where have I been? Clearly, I belong in Loserville as I was only able to watch 500 Days of Summer yesterday.
Yes, yesterday.

It is also a movie that doesn’t have a goodlooking guy, the type you imagine in movies, but hey, it works. Their chemistry works. And how nerdy and extremely attractive that your guy is the one responsible for writing all those good stuff in greeting cards (and address plaques)? I’d take that over an architect any time
