Atonement

I was meant to be going to see something completely mind-numbing: enter stage left dragons and princesses in the Disney craptacular that is 'Enchanted'. But somehow I ended up accompanying M&M to a sneak preview of 'Atonement'.

Fabulous film, I haven't read the book (I think I was the only person there who hadn't). I was spellbound throughout it and would highly recommend it.

It was even good enough for me not to want to throw things (I would say popcorn, but the screening was at the MFA and they don't have such things) at Keira Knightley throughout the film. Though there were moments in the film where she looked shockingly flat-faced*, so perhaps someone has already taken a frying pan to her. Fab green dress though.

And it has started snowing - real snow this time, the type that will stick. And then need to be shoveled (but will worry about that later).

* Not to mention flat-chested.

Crash goes the rabbit (sing to tune of 'Pop goes the weasel)

Ahe,. I've officially had my first car, er let's call it an incident, in America.

I was turning right, he was turning right, two cars, one lane (you do the 'math' as they would say). We exchanged insurance details and registrations (you don't exchange phone numbers here apparently...).

Bugger it.
