I've declared this week a loss, and will be devoting the remainder to watching television

There are wild turkeys roaming all over my lawn. Hello, turkeys! Enjoy the fact that it isn't hunting season yet! For all that domestic turkeys are some of the dumbest animals in the barnyard (with sheep a very close second), wild turkeys are scarily smart. I wouldn't be at all surprised to wake up one day to a world ruled by evil wild turkey overlords. Just you wait and see.

Quick question for you guys. Has anyone ever returned an opened DVD to Amazon with good results? They say they'll do an exchange or a partial refund for a damaged item, but I've been having really bad luck with all sorts of customer service recently, so I figured I'd ask you guys first. Will they give me a hassle, do you think? I'm rather tired of hassles. I escaped the curse of the lousy packaging = loose, sliding, scratched DVDs with the first season of Angel, but my luck failed with S2. The first disc is a mess, and of course, Fox doesn't do such nice gestures as replace things that were wrecked because they screwed up. Ah ha ha ha. Silly me.


And I really, really don't like LJ's new update page. Almost as much as I don't like my email's new format (curse you, Care2!) or the fact that eBay is slightly different every time I go there recently (quit gaslighting me!). I wish they'd stop fixing things that aren't broken.

Lost tonight! Yay, a happy thing! Or so I hope...

So, Lost...

I bet I would have liked it, if I could have seen it. Instead of getting a screen full of blurs only vaguely recognizable as human, accompanied by static instead of useful audio, that is. I only need to get ABC watchably for one hour a week, and can I? Ha! But when it's Reality Show X or Lame Sitcom du Jour, no problem, nice clear (or clearish) picture and sound. Argh! Stupid, stupid day.

But the Naveen-shaped blob was most attractive indeed, when I could see him. And the Dom-blob seemed to be saying some funny/interesting static. So that's something.

At least I finally get to see Sky Captain tomorrow. And maybe CSI and WaT won't live up to my dread. There's no profit in being negative, right? sigh

Two days 'til Joan! And thank god for that.
