A Movie Shoot?

Well here we are in my little town and trailers appear down the street, movie trailers. . . not here in little green gables? Gil and I presumed it was for a little tiny commercial or something like that but Jessica got stars in her eyes and off she went down the street with her friend to investigate the matter. To be honest Gil and I were curious enough to let her go. Then later Gil went to get her and in doing so also take a peep at the happenings. Well it turns out it is a movie shoot. Pretty big name stars too, Diane Lane, Justin Timberlake, Johnny Knoxville, (although Justin may have been replaced). They are not at the shoot right now but apparently will be on Tuesday, and they will make an appearance to sign autographs for the fans. So of course Jessica is now busy making an autograph book. I asked just whose autograph did she want and she's like, "I don't know anyone."

I guess it doesn't take much to impress a nine year old. Gil must have a crush on Diane Lane because he's talking about trying to get her picture, zoom lenses, staking out the set with Jessica as his cover. I'm sure though I don't need to worry, an old frumpy guy with four kids in tow can't be too appealing to the average hollywood type, (ha ha kidding). I do think that there will now be a debate though on just which parent gets to meet the bus. It's right across from the shoot and usually it's a fight; now it will be like, "No dear, you've had a rough day. Let me go, really I don't mind." It does make you think twice about exactly what you wear to go to the bus though, I mean sweats and a ball-cap seem somehow insufficient.

The other funny aside is Jessica saying to us, "That guy from Jackass is in it." Gil and I were like "Pardon me young lady, that may be a show but we will still not tolerate that kind of language in this house." I mean really. Of course she looked at me her face gone white and swears she didn't know it was a bad word. At least not yet; that will come soon enough.

Post Script: The movie people lied, they all dissapeared the other day so they psyched us all out and we are all so smart we fell for it. And yes I don't have much to say sometimes life is boring over here, I only have four kids (five if you include Gil) and nothing to do but clean, clean, clean. Actually sometimes my blogs are late because I have employed a "blog checker" who constantly falls down on the job, but I fear with my spelling the blog would be undecipherable without him. But this post is really really late so ------(insert hand motion here) YOU'RE FIRED!!!!!!!!
