If you're looking for a more rigorous approach I highly recommend Box-Jenkins. http://www.amazon.com/Applied-Econometric-Series-Probability-Statistics/dp/0470505397

The important part of this question is what do you know? By saying you're looking to learn "a little more about econometrics," does that imply you've already taken an undergraduate economics course? I'll take this as a given if you've found /r/econometrics. So this is a bit of a look into what a first year PhD section of econometrics looks like.

My 1st year PhD track has used
-Casella & Berger for probability theory, understanding data generating processes, basic MLE, etc.

-Greene and Hayashi for Cross Sectional analysis.

-Enders and Hamilton for Time Series analysis.

These offer a more mathematical treatment of topics taught in say, Stock & Watson, or Woodridge's Introductory Econometrics. C&B will focus more on probability theory without bogging you down in measure theory, which will give you a working knowledge of probability theory required for 99% of applied problems. Hayashi or Greene will mostly cover what you see in an undergraduate class (especially Greene, which is a go to reference). Hayashi focuses a bit more on general method of moments, but I find its exposition better than Greene. And I honestly haven't looked at Enders or Hamilton yet, but they will cover forecasting, auto-regressive moving average problems, and how to solve them with econometrics.

It might also be useful to download and practice with either R, a statistical programming language, or Python with the numpy library. Python is a very general programming language that's easy to work with, and numpy turns it into a powerful mathematical and statistical work horse similar to Matlab.

Uhm... in econometrics, I'd go with Woolridge (he has another book mostly on panel data but that is a graduate level textbook). I used Gujarati in my undergrad classes and didn't like it very much.

If you are more into macro-oriented time series econometrics, Enders is a great book, very practical and with a lot of examples. If you end up doing applied microeconometrics in Stata, Cameron and Trivedi have a great book for that.

I just stumbled upon this website that seems to have good info on econometrics texts which, as you can see, can be pretty pricey.
