i've just finished watching vanity fair. i'm not sure it at all does justice to the written work, but it is beautiful. i love movies that make me want to run away to another time and place. india in the early nineteenth century for example. also, i wish my life could have a soundtrack. and i want to fall in love with a man like alan rickman (especially in sense and sensibility, but hp snape would do) or the character dobbin in this movie. not the dashing, etched "hunks" as my mom would say, but the dependable, quiet, solid, secure, devoted love of my live.

i had the most wonderful evening last night. a friend came over and we watched a movie and then just laid on the livingroom floor, drinking beer and talking about our lives. there are certain things we talked about that kind of made my heart hurt. love and pain and the confusion of life, etc... do you ever just want to love someone? like you just want to spoil them and love on them and shower them with affection until they can't stand it - and not in a romantic way necessarily, but in a pouring-out-of-your-heart sort of way.

why do characters named jane always have such big hearts? if i ever have a baby girl i will name her jane.
