Mar. 14th, 2004 06:29 pmSo in order to escape my house and The Verve *, I went shopping. Groceries were needed, sofas needed to be sat upon and considered for that fine day I eventually buy one and most important of all: last night I discovered that I am only one volume short of having all of season 2 Farscape. I should organize my DVDs more often - there is no telling what else I have.
So today I now have a complete season 2, a fair amount of season one (all that I want actually - I can live without "Jeremiah Crichton") and my thoughts turn toward Season 3 and 4. This is good.
Circuit City and Best Buy and their strange ways of DVD pricing - this is not good. At Circuit City, QaF Season 3 was priced at $109.99. FOR FOURTEEN EPs!!!! Puh-leeze. I mean - I love Brian Kinney as much as the next girl, but for $109.99 I expect Gale Harold to come over to my house and give me at least a 30 minute foot rub. I'd be sleazier with that demand, but I don't want Gale to feel all exploited.
At Best Buy, QaF was $80.99 which still seems really pricey for 14 episodes and half of them weren't that great. Seriously. I watch early season 3 like this: fast forward, oh Brian, fast forward, dammit Justin!!! fast forward. Hell, I watch late season 3 the same way. Oh, well.
I have so much more to say - but supper is ready and I am starving.
*In my car My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult appears to have taken over. Strange things are happening in my brain. Also - I thought my "Sexplosion" CD was missing and then it mysteriously turns up.

So I just finished watching "Brother's Keeper" and as soon as I calm down, I'll watch "Flash to Bang" cause although I told
tzikeh I was gonna cap everything off with "Flowers for Hobbes," I don't think I could handle if right now.
I love this show. I think part of my recent musical chairs obsession, inability to focus on one song and total inability to vid anything but utter sap/cheese is cause I am still searching for the perfect song for Darien. Not that I'm gonna vid him right away or even ever (cause for starters there already are 2 really incredible I-Man vids and I'd have to have something to say that hasn't been covered and I don't see if happening) but I am a much happier camper when the characters I love have their own songs and vids in my head. I feel better about life. I am strange that way.
So now - post "Brother's Keeper" I've got this song in my head and I'm all contrary and shit because now I don't want it because it is just too sad and that has been my entire problem this month anyway and why I really just had to quit working on the vid I started a few weeks ago. And I review all of my other vid ideas and there is the vid about how Mulder destroys Scully and the vid about George letting go of her life and the vid about CONNOR! and dear god. I am the most depressing person I know. And I have no happy ideas. I've been listening to some upbeat, uplifting music too - I keep wanting to juxtapose incredible suffering to the lyrics just cause I am that kinda gal. I need to lighten up. I need pep. I need um...vigor. Some kinda spice and quite possibly a motorcycle.
I need happy ideas. I need songs that bounce. Otherwise any vid I do will make "Blue Room In Archway" look like a day at the water park. And while I love the sad and I adore the depressing and hell, I have to be honest, I live for the pain, not right now.
So rec me a happy song and/or something that makes you feel good. Lyrics are unimportant - I'm looking for mood.
