Poshdeluxe

ok, i don’t know what i was talking about yesterday. i mean, seriously,
i must have been on crack to think that i would rather be gwyneth
paltrow than elizabeth bennet of pride & prejudice fame. maybe it
was gwyn’s flashy outfit or her precious child that distracted me, but
rest assured, i am back on track with jane austen after seeing P&P
for the second (and not that
last!) time last night with hilary, meredith and kc. oh elizabeth, how
could i forsake you and your delicious wit and headstrongs ways and,
most importantly, your WHIRLWIND ROMANCE WITH MR. DARCY?!!!!!!

chris martin ain’t got nothing on darcy pants. i mean, sure he can
sing, but who cares?!! is he cloaked in mystery? is his brow handsomely
furrowed? does his waistcoat accentuate his hotness? does he walk
through the fog with his manly boots and his coat flowing in the wind?
is he arrogant but with a heart of gold? does he say things like, “you
have bewitched me body and soul and i love and love and love you. and
never wish to be parted from you from this day forward”?

i mean, JUST LOOK AT THIS:

LE SIGH!!!!! LE SIGH SIGH SIGH!!!!

not to belabor the point BUT yesterday, hilary, meredith and i compiled
a mr. darcy list… i’m stealing the version that meredith just posted
on myspace:

–A British accent

–A proclivity towards wearing long fitted coats and top hats

–A fortune of thirty thousand pounds a year and a lush, rolling estate called Pemberley

–A brooding intensity that is broken only when they are thrown into discomposure simply by looking at us

–A tendency to tell us, earnestly, with hat over heart, that they love us most ardently and that we have bewitched them.

whew.

um anyway…

after the movie, meredith and i were talking about how much we kind of
hate jane austen for creating such an incredible, perfect man that WE
CAN NEVER HAVE. GAH!! WHY?!!!!!!!

imagine our surprise when, after the movie, we discovered mr. darcy
waiting for us in the theater lobby!!!!!! SWEET CRACKER SANDWICH!!! he
swore his undying love to each of us, which we didn’t mind cos the four
of us are FINE with sharing. we LURVE to share. but then unfortunately
mr. darcy had to ride off into the fog on his horse in order to
maintain his hotly enigmatic ways.� le sigh again.

thank goodness i had my camera to capture our moments of bliss together for all of eternity.

to say that hilary was overjoyed is probably an understatement.

and you can see the way that he looks at each of us, his eyes burning
with passion… i can barely handle it, even in photographic form.

see? meredith and i are sharing. and we don’t mind. at all. nope.

i kind of hate kc for kissing mr. darcy in this picture. but… no,
it’s cool! we can share! really! just come back, ok mr. darcy? ok? see
you in the lobby? or in a field with fog?

or maybe just in my dreams.

le sigh
