Happy Kirre’s Birthday Week!!!!! We are watching a movie that has been recommended to me many times, but I’ve never got around to watching. So, the perfect birthday pick!
Aarzoo! It’s only available on einthusan, so you should watch it there. And then also, we should all be more or less time synced which is the BEST way to do a watchalong.

At 3pm Chicago time, I will put up an “and PLAY” comment and then we can all just keep commenting along. I’m excited! We never watch a new-to-Margaret movie!

It’s symbolic, but also very cute. Also, just gives the nervous/scared wife some sense of ownership of the marriage/bed

Bwhahaha! I should start morning aartis just to wake everyone up. My husband’s always sleeping in and I’m always up and bored. This is why Saturday morning watchalongs used to be the best. I would watch them in bed which meant I was always entertained while my husband got to sleep in.
