It's amazing! The instant after watching it, I notified one of my best friends about it, made plans to tell my kids (who were on sleepovers or otherwise busy making my birthday gift (HD2 was barricaded in her room and told me that's what she was doing, so I let her be)), and promised myself I'd blog about it.
