Hanukkah = No Fun For Me

After my yoga class on Monday I watched the rest of American Splendor. It was artsy but the guy didn't really have such an interesting life so a movie about him couldn't be that great.
Last night I saw Le Divorce (2003). It wasn't very good but I think Kate Hudson is adorable so I just like watching her films. "An American girl crosses the Atlantic to visit her pregnant Parisian stepsister whose husband has just left her in this French comedy. Kate Hudson stars as Isabel Walker, a California native who sets off to Paris to visit her half-sister Roxeanne (Naomi Watts) and her family. But upon her arrival, Isabel learns that Roxeanne's husband has left her for another woman while she is pregnant with their second child. As Roxeanne deals with her anguish and pregnancy pains, Isabel flirts about Paris and finds a lover in the City of Lights--the uncle of Roxeanne's soon-to-be-ex-husband!" It is based on the novel by Diane Johnson, which I would like to read at some point.
Hanukkah is supposed to be a fun and happy family holiday. Not for me. I didn't even get my menorah cuz #2 flaked out on me last night at the last minute so I went to Rachel & Rachel. They didn't even light properly in front of a window and I basically had to sing the songs by myself. I hope tonight is better even though I won't be getting my menorah tonight either cuz my mom brought it to work so #2 can't get it and neither can I cuz I have the Holiday Party and I'm wearing pants.
