Love & Other Drugs


The hubby and I recently watched this movie.  It was cute and funny and made me smile.  But the reason I'm writing about it is because it's one of those movies that just totally hit home for Pete and I.  There were so many similarities with how he and I fell in love, and the obstacles we faced (minus the Parkinsons and Viagra of course).  Unless you know us well enough, you may not fully understand...but trust me, these quotes are awesome...

"Because this isn't about connection for you. This isn't even about sex for you. This is about finding an hour or two of relief from the pain of being you. And that's fine with me, see, because all I want is the exact same thing."

"I have *never* cared about anybody or anything in my entire life. And the thing is, everybody just kind of accepted that. Like, "That's just Jamie." And then you!... Jesus. *You*. You. You didn't see me that way. I have never known anyone who actually believed that I was enough. Until I met you. And then you made me believe it, too. So, uh... unfortunately... I need you. And you need me."

"Let's just say in some alternate universe, there's a couple just like us, okay? Only she's healthy and he's perfect. And their world is about how much they're going to spend on vacation or who's in a bad mood that day, or whether they feel guilty about having a cleaning lady. I don't want to be those people. I want us. You. This."

That is all. <3
