I sent a box of CDs and DVDs to my mom via media mail while I was preparing to leave DC, and it never arrived. I keep discovering new things that I'm missing. The latest discovery . . . While You Were Sleeping and About a Boy. I love those movies. Those are my main, go-to comfort movies. This is truly a tragedy. If I'd just noticed yesterday, I could have picked up new copies while I was down in Boise. I guess this requires a trip to Amazon. I'm so disappointed. I wanted to watch a double feature while folding laundry and putting up curtains. Sigh. I guess this means I have to go to the back-ups Notting Hill and Ever After.
ETA: I'm also missing Bridget Jones. This is getting expensive. HATE the post office.

I was on track - for a degree or a career or a healthy retirement fund - for my first 29 years. I decided to see what a year off track feels like. Starting December 23, 2006, this is where you can find updates on the no doubt boring adventures of Corina derailed.
About Me
- Corina
- The header says alot, but I'm a 30-year-old lawyer turned dropout who really really loves to be places other than home, wherever that happens to be at the moment. I believe rainy days are a personal affront and take umbrage when the sun is behind clouds. I love summer with an unholy passion. I watch insane amounts of television (or did until I gave up, temporarily I hope, television reception), and have given up feeling bad about it. Most of the time.

Um, tragedy indeed! do you have The Devil Wears Prada? I find it to be a panacea. Also -- not that you need my help sifting through romcoms -- but American President -- I believe it to be a cure-all.
Mom comes to the rescue again! Of course, she has copies of all these movies, so she's going to put together a little care package.
I don't have The Devil Wears Prada, and I know how much you love The American President, but it just doesn't do it for me. Something about Michael Douglas as a leading man just skeeves me out. If it wasn't such a sunny, beautiful day I'd settle in with the BBC Pride & Prejudice, which really is a cure-all. As it is, I might just have to watch the last few hours starting when Elizabeth gets her first view of Pemberley.
oh come on! American President - a romcom that champions the liberal cause?! you couldn't make that movie about Republicans!
I totally agree but . . . I can't imagine ever wanting to kiss Michael Douglas. And that sort of ruins the experience for me.
