Two months? No way has two months passed.

So now it really has been a while since I've written. What can I say? The school year is winding down (19 days and counting), summer and the end of allergy season are just around the corner, and I'll have the days free to write (when I'm not taking the last required class I need for special certification to teached gifted students in this area).

I recently watched the A&E version of Pride and Prejudice again, as well as the newest version starring Kiera Knightley (a girl entirely too pretty). I must confess I like both versions. The five plus hour long A&E version is richer and does star Colin Firth, but the new one is livlier and the actors are more the correct age. And you have to love Dame Judy as Lady Catherine DeBurgh.

I also recently viewed Fast Times at Ridgemont High, which I didn't like all too much the first time I saw it, and now twenty years later, I still don't think it a great movie. But my husband was actually in the senior class in San Diego that Cameron Crowe joined when he did research for his book. No, don't bother to look for a character based on my husband, although he can tell you who the real life people are the movie characters portray.

We have a movie night every weekend with our children to expose them to great films. We've seen Schindler's List, His Girl Friday, Mask of Zorro (hey, I didn't say they were all serious movies--I like fun movies), Stand by Me, and Field of Dreams (which is not a baseball film, I don't care what anyone says) among others. I love movies. Always have, and I suspect we have quite a few more to view before we even start to become bored.

So if you're reading this, what movies would you recommend as must-sees?
