That sums up my social life pretty mutch.... I once believed I had many friends - but then I discovered I do not had to many of them in the end... Oh well - I'm better off alone I guess... At least it is less komplicated this way...

Just watched the movie from the book by Muriel Barbery with my grandson. Even a manly man can enjoy a so-called chick flick if it improves domestic tranquility? (grin)
