The Grey starring Liam Neeson

Set in the isolated land of Alaska, this movie looks at how a group of air crash survivors deal with a pack of territorial wolves, as they hope for rescue.
My husband got this movie home by mistake. He doesn't like - as he calls them  - "arty farty" movies.
I on the other hand adore the cinema and appreciate anything that isn't mainstream. (I love mainstream too - and am simply waiting for the Hunger Games to come out on DVD - due to my little baby I couldn't see it in the theatre).
Liam Neeson was brilliant and I loved everything about the film. I also like the poem in the film - I loved how it was introduced into the movie and how it is actually what the movie was about in a way. The power of poetry never ceases to amaze me.

One more into the fray
Into the last good fight I'll ever know
Live and die on this day
Live and die on this day
From the movie "The Grey"

If you do not hope, you will not find what is beyond your hopes.

I'm going home to sleep

We recently have been blessed with a beautiful baby girl. She is the cutest darling anyone could ever wish for!! There was an incident recently that I'd like to share. I'd come over to my Mom's place for a few days.
My baby got sick two days back - a reaction to a vaccination given on Saturday. She was crabby that night, but I didn't think much of it.
On Sunday when she woke up at 5:30 am, she had a low grade fever, which rose to around 10:00 am. A call to the doctor and medicine later, she became a little better.
Which is when her Daddy saw her, around lunch time.
Now I think men are programmed differently from women. That's why books like Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus come out. That's why even Gretchen Rubin's husband thinks watching The Shield together makes the couple bond.
I was tired that day, and so was my baby. Both of us starting to nod off after lunch, because it had been a tiring morning after all. My baby with her fever, and me with a baby with a fever.
What does my husband say?
Supportive he is. I suppose.
"If you and the baby are going to sleep, I'm going home to sleep!!"
After that, I gave him a sound talking about how HE HAS TO HELP ME WITH THE BABY!! What do guys think? A baby is only the woman's responsibility??!!!
After all, we are a family with expectations of each other.
Sorry my dear baby daughter, but this is the truth.
I hope the fever goes down and my baby becomes her normal laughing self!!
