Quite Agreeable

I rewatched Emma last night. *Sigh* I love Mr Knightly so. Wise, admirable and honourable. And the when he told Emma off - that is sexy. Jane Austen wrote such timelessly attractive male leads. They are, of course, purely fictional. You see, I think that there is a nexus between the fine gentlemen she constructed and fact that she was a singleton all her days. Perhaps she was holding out for the man of her pen and would only settle for him, but was happily settled if no such man appeared - she would not comprimise. Indeed, I believe she had many proposals that she turned down.

The dialouge in Emma is brilliant. Witty, funny, consise and wise. Just a couple of years ago I didn't understand Austen. In fact, I didn't even udnerstand soap operas. I conclude that I must be a late social developer. I'm probably just finding things out that everyone else has known for ages.

In other news, my housemate Von just gave me two pairs of tacky earrings. I'm stoked, it was very sweet of her. You're probably puzzling over how tacky entails sweet. We were looking through my Ice Accesories (TM) jewelry and I casaully mentioned that I wanted to expand my collection of tacky earings, and she remembered. And I only wear tacky ironically. Like how I wear pink ironically. And wear miniskirts ironically. And watch the OC and Survivor ironically. And love Boston Rob ironically. And talk in a "Clueless" vioce ironically. And eat sushi ironically. And shop at Valleygirl ironically.

Hmm, I hope it wasn't ironic that I had to spell out the irony of my practices... ("I hope not [ironically].")
