Concerning Marriage

I indulged myself in watching the film version of Pride and Prejudice three times this week. Do not fear, it was the Keira Knightly version, not the BBC one, and so I did not use too much time unprofitably. I reflected on how boring it would be to be Kitty after three sisters were married or engaged, left with Mary to wonder when her own life would begin. Especially since my own friends as of late have become, themselves, married. I know that one of Anne's friends will soon enter into matrimony, and Charlotte has seen more acquaintances wed than she can count. If ever I find my Mr. Darcy, I hope I will not forget you, dear sisters, in my own happiness, as from time to time my friends have forgotten me.
