Last weekend we were all in the car coming back from somewhere. Don't ask me-I can't remember those details. Anyway, we passed by a billboard for that new movie Tammy coming out in a couple weeks. Melissa McCarthy plays the main character-I'm assuming Tammy. Georgia read the name of the movie out loud as we drove by, and Andy kind of scoffed at the movie. He said something about her being okay in small doses like in Bridesmaids, but that she's not good a lot of the time. Meaning-she does the same thing over and over again and to carry a whole film and then multiple films playing the same character just gets old. I can't say I disagree with him. However, from the back seat all Lana heard him say was that she wasn't good. Lana was quick to qualify what he meant by "not good."
"You mean like she smokes?" She asked him.
"No, Lana. I...." Andy didn't have time to answer because Lana jumped in with.
"Ooooh, like she kills people," she said.
"No. Lana. She..." and then we started laughing. Because really my daughter's idea of someone who is not good is either they smoke, or they kill people. The jump from one to the other is what I found most amusing. Eventually we explained that he meant she wasn't good in the movie, but I'm pretty certain she still thinks Melissa McCarthy smokes while killing people. Sorry Melissa.
