Random Ramble:
I've been thinking about metaphors for life lately. Has anyone every compared life to dessert? I could say that life was like dessert: you can choose to share it with someone or not. Sometimes dessert is best kept to oneself - then you get the cherry on top. Or sometimes, when dessert is just too much for one person, sharing it with another person makes it conquerable. The list of metaphors could go on and on.
Anyway. Was thinking about that a lot yesterday and then I finally watched Four Weddings and a Funeral for the first time. I had never seen it before and A. couldn't believe it. My parents recently bought the DVD, so we watched it together last night. It's a fairly entertaining movie and has some really relate-able moments.
