After having my tonsils removed, life was a haze. Luckily I am easily amused, and I spent a lot of it watching movies. Until I realized the most entertaining of all was Dan in Real Life...
Dan definitely deserves the Oscar this year for taking care of me, Karina and Christmas. I did my supporting role by laying on the couch really, really well. If I do say so myself, I make a very good patient.
But back to the movie. I watched Dan wake Karina up, put her down for bedtime and everything in between. I watched him deal as Karina's sleep patterns got thrown off and the subsequent crankiness set in. In my favorite scene, I watched as he tried to have total peace and quiet in a closet while on a conference call. It was like seeing into a mirror, except a much, much taller version of myself.
Just when I thought he couldn't take any more...
