mandolinHappy birthday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
leiza, four days late. (Sorry!)
Saturday was Death's birthday, and we celebrated with much chocolate, lunch, and went out to see Sin City. The latter I'd heard about, and it was pretty much what I expected. It was good, but if you have a weak stomach... don't go. (The fact that the credits say "Special Guest Director Quentin Tarantino" is a hint.)
I have a remote and a working DVD recorder now. Yay! I've started in on my Now and Again tapes, the poor 5+ year old videotapes recorded in SLP speed which must be preserved somehow. There may be commentary later as I have to rewatch the eps to record them commercial-free. :) I am mildly annoyed that the finalized DVDs won't play in all players (the Toshiba? Yes. Deb's DVD player? Yes. My computer? Yes. My Sony DVD player which does play DVD-Rs because I used it to test my iDVD projects? No) but it's still a heck of a lot better than the Philips. Yeah, I could wait until there were no compatibility issues with that sort of thing, but who knows when that will be.
Survived the midterm. Got an A. Yay for my tendency to be anal-retentive about these kind of things.
And off to look at more houses. Wish me luck.
