Hasta luego, popcorn!

Popcorn is one of my favorite foods. Drenched in butter, of course. So this afternoon Maria joined me in a huge venture: eating my last tub of movie popcorn. Last tub, that is, for two years. Yep, that's right- two years. No, I'm not disciplined enough to give it up on my own. Not movie popcorn, not non-movie popcorn. I don't give up popcorn easily. Instead I'm getting braces tomorrow, and will have them on for two years! Sigh. Not sure how I feel about that. Eventually I hope I'll be grateful. For now I'm a bit worried about having braces as an adult, for two years, in upcoming photos in China with our newly adopted daughter (dare I even say that, or will that jinx it?), etc. Vain, I know, but true. I'm a bit nervous.

But back to the popcorn. No popcorn for two years. So Maria and I went to the movies and saw "Casino Royale", the new James Bond movie. Good, though violent. It is Bond, after all... I should have remembered that. Anyhow, fun movie, and even better popcorn. Hopefully it will last, since I'll have two years without it.

Hasta luego, popcorn! Hola, braces...
Hasta luego, that is, unless I find some hull-less popcorn....
