Merry Chris-birthday to me! 01/27/2002 - 7:42 p.m. Well, as I said earlier, today was a day devoted to shopping for a DVD player for me, my b-day and X-mas gift(s) from my great good friends D-man and Jellybeana. Also along for the ride, and to shop for his new speakers, was my great and good friend JD. We went hither and thither, three of the major electrono-retail chains being the places we felt we must explore. After much overkill about this and that scan rate and surround sound shmuh and a lot of general smoke-blowing by the various salesteens, I settled on a Toshiba SD 3750. It was in the agreed-upon gift price range, and D-man and Jellybeana have the next model down, and swear by it, so - gimme, Mr Salesteen. Plus the Panasonic I was eeny-meenying about was out of stock at all 3 places. We just plugged the thing in, and they hung around long enough to bask in the glory of my new toy, and are now wending homeward. So that's it for now. I am now going to spend the night watching my meager but growing DVD collection and digging the ultrea-swankness of my new digital toy. To the surprise, I'm sure, of absolutely no one who has read any of Mistakes and Other Delights, I can find a twinge of sadness in my plans for the night. Amongst my as-yet-unviewed treasures is the single most romantic movie ever made. I bought it because Miss Almost-Perfect had never seen it, and I really wanted to show it to her under the best possible conditions... which of course would have been in our local art house, but it isn't coming anytime soon, so this was the next best option. Now I don't know who I'm going to show it to. Maybe I'll just leave it on the shelf and watch Memento or The Brain That Wouldn't Die instead........ ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< In other news, I added a guestbook. Don't say anything mean in it, ok? Music to move further into the digital world by: Memento in the background - I can barely hear it, as I'm upstairs and the tv's down...... "Ok, so what am I doing? Oh, I'm chasing this guy. No, he's chasing me!" See what I did there? I went and moved my diaryring to a rings and reviews page! |
