Colin Firth

A friend asked me this past weekend if I'd found the love of my life down here in Costa Rica. If by "love of my life" you mean an actual person whom I love, who loves me back, someone who knows me inside and out, someone who supports me and holds me and wants to spend the rest of his life with me (and I with him), then answer is no. (woo-hoo)

But if by "love of my life" you mean "actor", then, yes, I've found him. He's Colin Firth. What can I say, I'm a sucker for the "uptight english bloke discovers fun, love and his heart when the right woman comes into his life" storyline. He plays the subtleties of English uptightedness as well as he plays the gradual melting of heart. It's a beautiful thing. He also has a great accent. And he's a character in two of my favorite books. What's not to love?
