I just finished watching “Jane Eyre” with Toby Stephens as Rochester. I am still ever devoted to Colin Firth’s Darcy, but hem hem, Toby Stephens is worth checking out in “Jane Eyre.”

Experiment made me tired, then I got a headache.

Judy, Switzerland! Lucky! All that green countryside, all that cheese–mmmm. Have a great time!

Lady S, thanks for reading my book! You are definitely the only European who has read it yet, as far as I know. Thanks for extending my book’s map! And how lovely your trip sounds–not only time with your sweetie, but also coffee and conversation with friends. Excellent way to treat yourself.

Jen, for sure re-watch Bridget Jones! Now that you’ve seen the BBC version of P & P, you’ll appreciate the casting of Colin Firth as Mark Darcy so much more.

I do need to get to Austenland, Robin. I think I’ll definitely relate. I also have an urge to re-watch Bridget Jones’ Diary, and see Colin Firth as a Darcy substitute.

I was downright wonderful to myself this week: hopping on the unexpected freedom to get over to see my sweetie on Thursday and reading your book on the trip over! I finished it on Friday morning and loved it so much. We’d a great time too - some editing work on his WIP, hanging out in coffee shops and the Oxfam bookshop, and taking two friends to this lovely yarn shop where the other knitter and I drooled and fondled to our hearts’ contents and the two non-knitters - both YA/children’s book authors - sat on the sofa and talked happily.

Now just got to find time to do posts about the book and everything else!

I booked a trip to Lucerne, Switzerland. We’re going on Tuesday for a couple of days…only four hours by train from where we are.

Patrick, seriously, I’d like to know how that experiment goes.

Little Willow, love that list. That’s a good and interesting life.

I am physically incapable of simply doing nothing!

This week, I worked, rehearsed, listened, supported, pondered, watched, tried, and tried harder.

Nancy - i probably should apply the same logic to my eyes. I only wear glasses because my eyes get tired. Legally speaking, I see fine, but if I spend the day in front of a book\computer\tv, I’m pretty much done by about 5:00 pm and I need to take a nap and I’ll probably have a headache.

Eye doctor tells me not to wear them all the time, but I usually do these days.

I won’t wear my glasses today.

Yeah, BJ, I know. I could not even look at that article. I didn’t want to see the pictures, read any excerpts–nothing. But other than that, it’s still a great magazine. But yuck.

Michelle, awww! And so glad to hear about all your down time and yoga and playing. Yay!
