I can't believe I'm going to admit this, but I finally decided to suck it up and watch the trailer for Pride and Prejudice, and I think I want to see it. I should hide for saying that, what an awful thing. As someone who grew up with the A&E/BBC version, who idolized Colin Firth's Mr. Darcy above all others, who has wished she was Elizabeth Bennett many many times, how could I actually be interested in the new version that has a total lack of Colin Firth, Keira Knightly of all people playing MY role, and which is under 6 hours long. The new one doesn't look wholy bad though. Since the budget was much larger, the quality and sets are better. This new Darcy doesn't look wholy awful. And some lines are changed too, so it's not like the entire movie will be the much loved 1995 version, it will be it's own thing. But Keira Knightly? Of all people, why do we get her? I used to really like her, but lately she's gotten on my nerves almost as much as Hilary Duff does. There will also be no pond jumping scene, or if there is it's a total ripoff of the 1995 version. That part definitely wasn't in the book. I'm guessing it won't be there since the first proposal takes place in the rain, so there's still a wet scene. If you are interested, here is the trailer.

School started at Bentley today, and my life is back to it's old busy self. I was at the school for 2 1/2 hours last night and will be goign back two more times this week for various meetings. Why didn't I enjoy doing nothing when I was doing it all summer? This is certainly fun, but it's awfully stressful too. I lay awake thinking about the chapter and what I can do to help them. Last night's meetings haunted my dreams for hours, and nothing bad happened. What am I going to do if there is an actual issue?

Here's a video reinactment of the first time Peter and I took a pregnancy test that I thought might interest you.

Also, I'm sure you've all seen the clip of the fat kid in front of his computer lip sync'ing that foreign song and making a total ass of himself similar to the Star Wars kid from a few years ago. I've somehow found the song on the internet. It looks like a bunch of cats without ears dancing to it. Hallo and Salut to you all.
