changeyourstars8In honor of free accounts now having six icons instead of three, here is my new one. :-)
Chris and I stayed up until about 1 o'clock the other morning watching Moulin Rouge and trying to open all the Easter eggs on the DVD . . . what I really liked was that it was Chris's idea to watch the movie.
I've let him know that I definitely appreciate him not getting jealous about my many, many Objects of Celebrity Affection (one of these days I should write up a list...). One of my friends in high school had a crush on an actor (her boyfriend knew about this), and started watching a movie with him in it-- her boyfriend came into the room, saw who was on the screen, and turned the TV off. Which is a big illustration, to me, of how different people will put up with different things in a relationship: she stayed with him, but it would've been a breaking-up point for me.
I tested this aspect pretty early on in the relationship, and when Chris watched the movie, chuckled quietly at my zoned-out expression during Come What May, and then said, "Wish I could sing like that", I thought, "Reason #291 why I'm keeping you around".
Out of all the actors I'm a fan of, I think Ewan McGregor is the one Chris likes the most-- he's also a huge motorcycle fan and he's looking forward to getting the DVD of Long Way Round almost as much as I am. :-)
As long as I'm on the subject of my general love for EM (finding out that he's a UNICEF Ambassador basically moved him up to #1 on my list of actors I wish I could chat with), I'd like to mention the incredibly cool people at the Ewan Sisterhood, a fan group I found out about and joined a little while back. They're funny, nice, and they do things like an annual collection drive for the Children's Hospice Association of Scotland, which is a great thing to participate in.
And before I go completely fangirl, I'm going to sign off. ;-)
