Soup Day!

Rain pelted my windshield as I drove the kids to school this morning. Cool breezes, cloudy sky...

Ahh....autumn.

It's a day to eat soup, to indulge in a good book, to snuggle on the couch under a blanket.

Instead, I'll eat my soup at work, warmed up in the microwave, sit in my computer chair, and stare at someone else's words on the screen. Ah well.

Last night's presentation went fine. I showed a clip from Bridget Jones' Diary, which people loved (who could NOT love Colin Firth?) and my friend and I discussed pacing. I wanted to go home and write, but instead, ended up doing housework.

I did manage to watch my new DVD: Wallace and Gromit (if you haven't heard of these lovable characters, check out their website: www.wallaceandgromit.com ). I first saw these films on PBS a long time ago and I own them on VHS. But it was time to upgrade to DVD, especially since my daughter loves the movies and watches them over and over again. They're coming out with a full-length feature film (October 7th!) and I can't wait to watch it.

  1. DH wants us all to go to W&G at the cinema. Will the kids appreciate it--or rather will the mad 3 year old appreciate it?? I love them :)

  2. Melissa - thanks for the sympathy :-)

    And I LOVE W&G - we had a copy of A Close Shave, but sacrificed it to the nephews and niece *g*. Can hardly wait to see the film. Though this week I imagine we'll go see Serenity.

    And I envy you your rainy day. I could use a few right now. This late in the season I enjoy being outside so much when it's nice I hate working inside. Yep, a rainy day or three would be nice. Hope you get lots of writing done!
