Today's highlight: found a silly Colin Firth joke on Tumblr, took a screenshot, sent it to my family. :)
(Context: Pride & Prejudice is my mom's favorite book. When the 1995 miniseries came out, she bought the deluxe VHS box set and watched it so frequently that I have multiple scenes engraved onto my brain and I think Nike might be able to quote the entire script line by line. She also began tracking down every single film Colin Firth had been in up to that point and watched any new ones in theaters. (I have seen some deeply weird arthouse films as a direct result of this.) I don't know if her celebrity crush is still burning very strongly these days, but it lasted a good 15 years and Nike and I will never stop lovingly teasing her about it.)
