Productive day

[ringsandcoffee]

I can't believe how much I've done today. Usually, Sunday is all about school work, but since this is a 3-day weekend, I can do other things.
I have: gone to church, gone to the mall, went to the grocery store, did laundry, made homemade meatballs, made mango bars, cleaned the kitchen (necessary after the meatballs) and watched some of the BBC version of P&P. Oh man, it's almost comically bad. Not painfully bad, not even bad, but Caroline Bingly is awful! So is Mr. Collins. I just want to poke their eyes out with dull sticks.

I'm stoked that my meatballs turned out well, as this was my first attempt ever. I have to finish cleaning, make my bed, put away clothes, and when I'm totally exhausted, finish grading spelling tests while I maybe watch more P&P.

Oh yeah, there's a Dove dark chocolate bar calling my name...

Ditto on the Caroline comment, (Those eyebrows!?) but I choose to look at it like it's so bad it's awesome lol.

Happy to hear you got so much done! *kudos*

(Those eyebrows!?)

The eyebrows, the hair, the clothes! I thought it was bad in the '05 version where she makes the "interesting relatives" comment! I'm glad the other version toned Mrs. Bennet down also.

To me, several character voices sound identical to their counterparts in the other version, such as Jane and Mr. Collins. I wish we saw more of Charlotte, but I have only gotten to Jane and Lizzie talking about Bingly leaving.

I didn't notice the voices (yet another excuse to re watch them both lol), but I thought some of the characters look alike to their counterparts. Like Mr. Bingley and ...now I think I'm getting it mixed up with Jane Eyre lol. Well anyway, the two Bingleys look alike to me :P

I said it before, but I'll say it again: the movie really gets good on the second disc! ;)
