I’m putting this question out there to you all:
If your life were a movie, which one would it be?
I recently had a fellow twitterer tell me she thought of me as New Zealand’s own Bridget Jones (“in a nice way”). To be honest I think she’s hit the nail on the head. If I’m truly honest with myself, I seem to always have Bridget Jones moments, always! But don’t all girls? It’s kind of the point of the movie, isn’t it?
The crush on the boss? Dating the bad boys? Being unprepared for a night of action? Putting your foot in it, regularly? Always acting classy when on the vino? Weight loss? Keeping a diary (blog)? Finding true love?
Check. Check. Check. Check. Check. Check. Check. Fail!
But hey, Ms Jones was much closer to 30 than myself, so I have a few more years before I need to check that box.
I’m hoping in the next few years my life starts to resemble The Notebook, because seriously that movie is gorgeous! Of course, without all the heartache and deciding between two guys, I’m not greedy – one will be quite sufficient thank you very much!
Or maybe I just need to Sex and the City up my life? As a gorgeous gay man told me last night; “If you don’t have sex every two days, you’re not living. So just pounce the next attractive man you see.“
God, gay men have it sorted! I don’t think I want the reputation that goes along with it though…
My life isn’t really like a movie it’s too boring for a movie, if it’s like anything it’s a like a T.V show – like Friends, we all sit round drinking coffee and saying sarcastic things, and by the end of it nothing really happens….haha… Bridget Jones got her man in the end so maybe it’s not such a bad thing. I would mind a sex and the city lifestyle, but mainly for the shoes….
Bridget Jones moments – absolutely! I think we all have embarrassing moments that need to be forgotten with copious amounts of wine. Then there is our love lives…& at some point I think we all have the dilemma of choosing… ‘do I get tangled and swept away by a dangerously naughty Daniel Clever or a sweet and kind Mark Darcy’. Just got to make sure that while we are feasting on the deliciousness of the Daniel Clevers out there, that we don’t miss out on our fabulous, parent introducing Mark Darcys.
Oh but to have two yummy men fighting over you would be quite something mmm.
Oh I hear ya… that’s the part of the film I’m lacking!!! Two men fighting over me… damn!
Haha, great blog post.
I have no idea what movie my life would be. Any suggestions on what you know of me as a blogger?!

Well, gay men have it a bit easier. For them the reputation is more likely to arouse interest than scorn.
Which bloody well makes more sense if you ask me.
Lol, I just had to click on this blog post when I saw the title. Bridget jones is one of my all time favourite films!
