i had over-exposure to pride and prejudice earlier this week. given the unfortunate amount of work i have to struggle through this week, our lil’ gathering on monday night stretched out longer than planned as we watched all of the bbc adaptation which my good friend has on dvd. amazing. and through class the next day, i could not help but read my favorite parts of the book (online of course) as the same stuff was repeated over and over again. so now, not only am i reminded of the happy memories of dearest, lovliest elizabeth, but thoughts of broading mr darcy have kept a smile on my face for a couple of days. and to say the least it has somewhat affected my language (as you may already have taken note from the strange style of this posting). for a while i even recovered my english accent as we chatted about the infinite merits of the whole affair.
