a sporadic self-chronicle since 2001
pictures|live

Have I mentioned that it’s hard to make my life interesting when nothing’s really going on?

Look! It’s the lighting of my room… where I spend most of my time lately.

I guess I could just complain to fill up space…

I bought the first Harry Potter movie on DVD months ago and haven’t yet opened it. I was all set to a couple weekends ago when I realized that it was the full screen version. You see, it’s not obviously marked on the front cover that it’s any particular version. You can only tell by looking at the small bar on the back, at the bottom.

Since it wasn’t opened, I went to Futureshop last week to exchange it for a widescreen copy but they were all sold out - even though the website said they had it in stock.

I went again today and the same thing happened. The website said they were in stock but no one could find any. Of course, there are boxes and boxes of DVDs sitting around that haven’t been put on the shelves, but I can’t touch those and so when an employee tells me they’re out of stock all I can do is be sad that I have to go back yet again some other time.

    and the worst part is there’s lots of snow on the ground now, so getting to the mall on your own sucks.

    I can take you grocery shopping when I’m around… which still isn’t that helpful, but I try.

    we find ways to guilt people into giving us grocery trip rides :)

    Whatever… I will be guilted into nothing. Maybe I’m just a nice person who likes to offer help to others.
