Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen
"I am not in the habit of being disappointed!""That will make your ladyship's position more pitiable; but it will have no effect upon me." (p.303)
"Words are the voice of the heart." - Confucius. This place is for me, and you, to revel in the art of the written word. So pull up that hot pot of tea, coffee, or mulled cider, a comfy chair, a good book, and maybe a cat or two and join my bibliophilia!
"I am not in the habit of being disappointed!""That will make your ladyship's position more pitiable; but it will have no effect upon me." (p.303)

2. Sometimes I just want time to myself.
3. John McCain actually did a decent job at the presidential debate tonight, and that's why there is a saying, "never say never"! His policies, however, are still crappy.
4. When I'm down, I pick up a good book.
5. Chasing after Maya is where you'll find me most often.
6. A rainy day is good for reading.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to watching the debate, tomorrow my plans include reading Pride and Predjudice and Sunday, I want to spend time with my family that are coming to visit!
