Thanks to the chivalrous cousin who fixed my vcr yesterday (at a huge cousin party at my house-woo)!. With it, I've concluded Anne of Green Gables and Anne of Avonlea. My favorite fictional characters IN THE WORLD are, no contest, Elizabeth Bennet of Price and Prejudice and Anne Shirley of Avonlea/Green Gables. I wonder: was I provincially drawn to their characters as a child, or was it all happenstance. Anne left me with this enduring quote: it's not what the world holds in store for you, but what you bring to the world. Highly recommended to anybody.
And while I'm quoting, let me quote Coco Chanel: Dress shabily, they notice the dress. Dress impecably, they notice the woman. That's a great quote too. Anyway, It's over. Go away. I'm sleeping.
