I wanna...

Watch these movies...
Cherrybomb (sounds ridonkulous, but it has Rupert Grint in it, so...)
Pride and Prejudice - even though it has Keira Knightly in it, whom I think is ridonkulous
Pride and Prejudice - starring Colin Firth, because, well, Colin Firth...
The Jane Austen Book Club
Becoming Jane - I've seen this one, and had it saved on my box for ages, and I still wish I had never deleted it
Mansfield Park-  with Billie Piper. Even thought I hated the book, I wouldn't mind seeing the tv adaptation, because of Billie Piper (of Dr. Who fame)
The Real Jane Austen - an expansive BBC documentary that I'm sure has to be online (and accessible outside of the UK) somewhere
Atonement
300 Days of Summer
One Week

Now that we have Netflix, I don't feel bad about renting chick flicks!! HA! Also, do you notice a theme in my movie selections? I'm sure there are other, non-Jane Austen related movies out there, but I just can't think of too many right now...

*****
Get a library card.

I am trying so hard to ration my reading this month, as I technically only have one new book to read, and I desire books right now.

Truth be told, I despise my local library branch. I much prefer the one in my old neck of the woods, but it is such an inconvenient drive. I might just have to suck it up and make the trek. Or suck it up, and check out my local branch. Either way, there will be sucking.

*****
Get motivated.

Usually when I have the strong desire to read I lose the desire to do anything else, and I mean anything. I am hoping not to lost too much momentum going forward into the week.

I am teaching a class on Saturday. That should keep me going at least a little bit, keep me busy I mean. It's something. And I'm almost finished my last custom media pocket from my show in November (I am terrible...) so that's something as well.

I had something else to share, but I've forgotten. It's too cold in here, my brain has stopped functioning normally. I think that when your car's dashboard is telling you that it is -26, you shouldn't be obligated to go to work, or anywhere really. You should be obligated to put on your comfiest pajamas, grab a hot tea and knitted blanket, and curl up on the couch to watch any (or all) of the above mentioned movies. And snuggle with someone.

My two cents.
