I'm really not. But I did get my tax refund today. I did the responsible thing and paid some bills, put money aside for school and gave myself and after that, I'm almost broke again. The good thing is that I can almost see the light at the end of the tunel...almost.

I saw the newest rendition of Pride and Prejudice yesterday with BG. Though I tend to enjoy Austen adaptations because 1) I have a thing for period pieces and 2) I love a good love story, I quite expected to like this one too. However, I didn't expect to enjoy it quite this much. It's a beautiful film and though the directing is filled with quite a number of rip off shots from other directors but it was sooooooooooooo beautiful. I'm not sure how the Brits always manage to find the perfect Mr. Darcy but Matthew Macfadyen is perfect. At first appearance he's not an overly handsome man (you know what I mean...some guys, when you first see them, you're like "WOW") but as the movie progresses, he becomes more and more attractive. Not really of course but that was the impression I got. His good looks do warm up on you....good performance by Keira too though I'm not sure it's going to be enough to win her an Oscar, it definately creates a great, really enjoyable film. The closing scene left me with a warm, tingly feeling in my belly. :) Gotta love movies that do that to you. God how I love a good romance... *sigh*

I'm meeting one of my favourite profs for coffee tonight. Really looking forward to it too. When we last spoke he had made a connection with a children's book editor and was in the middle of writing a childrens book. Can't wait to hear all about it! I only hope the day goes quickly!
