B is for...



Balancing on bookshelves - The Flickr Group Roulette group of the day was 'Book Addicts'. I've been planning to climb onto my bookshelf for a photo anyway. Turns out it's not as comfy as I thought it would be. But I took my favorite shot of the year so far, so that's not so bad.

B is also for Bs - As-in 'Two Bs in a Blog'. We're working on redoing our travel blog. We're gonna buy a domain for it and everything - but we can't decide between .com or .ca - Thoughts, anyone?

B stands for Bouncy Tooth. As-in I had a cracked tooth which required a crown and I got the 'temporary' part today. And it's bouncy. It's very odd to me.

B is for Bikram Yoga - I attended my first Bikram Yoga class in November with my little sister. Got a Yogi Toes mat for Christmas, and will be attending my second class on Thursday. I'm hoping to aim for every week or two after that. It's hard work, but feels pretty good. Sweating's good for ya.

B is for Beach - Where Brian and I will be in just over 3 weeks. Jamaica, specifically. Woo! The countdown is SO on.

B is for Bourne Brunch - Brian and I spent the day with our friends F & D. They made us brunch (coast toast, which F has been raving about for YEARS... It was that good.) and then we watched the entire Bourne Trilogy, as Brian and I hadn't seen them, and it was time. They were good! I quite like Julia Stiles and Franka Potente, so they helped. :)

B is for bruise - I walked into the corner of our coffee table a couple days ago and have a HUGE colorful bruise to show for it. This is not important. But it started with B.

And with that, B is for Bye-bye.

Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day


Just finished watching this movie. Recorded it on the PVR back in April, and haven't gotten around to watching it. Wasn't sure how exciting it would be, and Brian didn't seem all that interested in it either.

But with Brian out of town, I thought I'll give it a shot.

And it was awesome. Don't know if it just matched the mood I was in, or what, but it was absolutely amazing. Simple story, but with depth to it. Character, setting - it moved me. When it ended I wanted to follow the story for another couple movies. Cute, fun, warm.

2.5 actors I admire a great deal help to. The .5 is one I know little about, but what I do I respect.

Great work, this. Great movie.

Just had to share.
