: Hello everyone. My name is Arnessa. (Say here "Hi Arnessa.) And I'm a P&P2 addict.
You think we really qualify as a 12 step program? Link to AA's 12 steps below. Anybody want to try rewriting them for us?
Here, I will give you a start:
1. Our excessive regard and admiration for P&P2 had become insupportable -- we have all apprehended that much.

Oh my gosh, Arnessa. I didn't realize it until I read this but I've pushed it too. It's so embarrassing to acknowledge all this.
I suppose you are right, we push it to have somebody to talk to about it. But then again, maybe part of the reason we do it is to push it off ourselves -- you know, kind of like Mark Twain with the obsessive conductor's ditty in his essay "Punch, Brothers Punch."
(I wonder if that's on the web. I will look and see.)

: Does anyone else find it odd that the Gardiners should come to Longborne without their children for Christmas?
Not necessarily; they were only in Longbourn
for a week (a rather short visit by pre-railway
standards), and Christmas day itself didn't
necessarily have that much family ritual
associated with it (this was before the
Christmas tree was established in Britain, etc.)
