The blog has felt a little heavy lately.

I mean with the emotions and the breathtaking men and…religion even.  This weight happens every now and then.  I usually break it up with videos, but even the videos have been all female, piano playing, sad and angsty.  I feel the need for a lift, something light.

Let’s see…

I saw Thor today.  Not my usual movie genre, but I jump out of the box sometimes.  I really enjoy the bad brother, in spite of the fact that his name is Loki, because he’s a little naughty and gets all the great lines.  Chris Hemsworth is truly a lovely physical, warm eyed, man.  His hair is all glorious lion mane in this movie and the red cloak is even more…billowy.  I realize Thor has a lot on his mind, but he always looks so pent up. Maybe that’s why he speaks like someone from a really hot, sexy, smoldering IRS office.

I left the movie feeling like he was too pensive and then I realized I was pensive.  I think that means I connected with Thor, we had a moment.  I wanted to tell him to lighten the hell up, it’s all going to be just fine.  Since he’s a movie, I just told myself.  I took a few deep breaths and told myself to lighten the hell up.  It worked.  I feel lighter.

Number three on my Life Rule List (Everyone has one of these, right?) is to not take myself so seriously.  It’s one I struggle with all of the time because life can get pretty serious, but I don’t have Thor-like problems.  No one is trying to blow up my planet or crush me with a big space ship.  I don’t have to figure out how to make my god-like life mesh with my astrophysicist mortal boyfriend’s life.  So, things are pretty good.

Thor, peanut M&Ms and I’m all rainbows again.

My thoughts from the laundry room.  Thunder Storm.
