well, first off, dvds are pretty impressive. i love having netflix, and it being so easy to watch, say, almodovar films. just watched master and comander on my computer- long, boring, and hollywoody i found it, but i was most sad to see how i couldn't pick out cory. couldn't even find his name in the credits- or even toms, for that matter, though judy was right where she was supposed to be. i thought at least in the group shots i'd be able to see him- he was supposed to have a name, for goodness sakes!- but it seems everyone was cut except russel crowe and the cute blond kid... oh well. i guess the extended mexican vacation was all that was really important. i'm sad i wasted 2 hours of my life, though. anyway, i'm watching m&c, ch is watching flower of my secret. and you know, he's got that spiffy camera phone, so he can take pictures like this:

and then he can message it to my email, where i can upload it to flickr, then post it on my blog. i told him i would. aren't subtitlos fabulous?

i'm going to be looking at apartments all day tomorrow (umm, and homework, yeah, that too...) and so needed to go grocery shopping today. the bribe was stopping by rajun cajun for overpriced overspiced lame indian food for dinner. (it was worth it!) however, i can't seem to walk to the fruit and veggie store without stopping in hyde park records. i thought i was doing really well, until an LP caught my eye... and then i started digging. got a new (well, new for me...) jethro tull that i'm exctited about. looked in o, as always, for otr's ohio. i was heading towards d to look for ani's little plastic castle remixes, which is stupid, becuase who would give it away? and there is always SO MUCH dylan to dig through. so i just went right to e, and struck gold- eurhythmics and everything but the girl! got one of each- so that's 3 LPs for $11. how fun! the etbg is REALLY 80's- i don't know if i'm gonna be able to deal, as i'm familiar with the acoustic version of some of the songs. but the cover's beautiful, so that's good enough, no?

but now i'm gonna take a bath- i must get up early tomorrow to get all the way up north in time for my first viewing!
