I saw the movie first, but when I read the book I was impressed at how perfectly cast (and deliciously brooding) Richard Armitage was in the role of John Thornton. I need to treat myself to watching it again sometime soon.<br /><br />My feelings on birthdays are exactly the same as yours. They're basically a day when all the regrets surface, and trust me, there are many. Time goes by way too fast. Happy belated birthday though, and be encouraged that you have blogger friends who can relate.<br /><br />Also, I agree on Captain America. He's definitely a "specimen" to quote the movie. ;)<br />Erin L.

Nothing had really changed for me since last year, so the whole day just felt... anticlimatic? Oh well. All we can do is keep striving, right? Hope you have a great week, lady. :-) Katy Uppermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07725740174190514869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690071068685176270.post-28455982631315717102014-04-16T17:54:17.891-06:002014-04-16T17:54:17.891-06:00Happy Birthday :) Have a great week.

I'm happy that Steve Rogers was able to cheer you up, though. (He's my favourite Avenger by far.) And I will never stop being inspired by NORTH AND SOUTH. I love it so much, particularly Richard Armitage in the role. Love!

I'm not dead, which means I have at least 1 more year to get that much closer to where I want to be. (I'm choosing to have a glass-half-full kind of life)<br /><br />And I loved North and South. Never has Richard Armitage been so swoony. (Unless you have a thing for dwarves. Which is cool. I'm not judging.)<br /><br />Hope your week is marvelous!Kris F.
