My DVD player should get here today. And once we make sure it works with my TV, I can start ordering stuff from Amazon UK. Tee-hee. I even already know what I'm going to get first. I just have to, y'know, control myself until later.

The Farscape poster came a couple of weeks ago (last week?). It'll look very geeky in my dorm room with my map of Middle-Earth. Maybe I should take my Neverwhere poster, too....

I've spent the last couple of days attempting to go through all of my stuff and decide what to take with and what to leave. There's a bunch to go through. And now that I'm watching Buffy and Angel again, I have to really resist the temptation to bring seasons of those along as well. (I am bringing Room with a View. Because the title is fun and it is pretty! (George Emerson is a tree-falling dolt!)) Everything is pretty much packed, for the most part. I just need to find a few things (where the heck did my pen holder get to?) and pack clothes. Other than that, I think I'm pretty much prepared. I can't wait to get back.

The Sims 2 comes out tomorrow. Hopefully will get it Saturday on the way to Seattle. If they don't have it at the Fred Meyer in Ellensburg there will be hell to pay. Possibly I should have just ordered it from Amazon. (They're handy in that when the fourth and fifth HP books came out and I had them pre-ordered, they arrived in the mail the day they were released. Makes a lot of sense. Why pre-order something highly anticipated and then get it days after everyone else? Smart Amazon.) So, anyway. BAD time to release highly anticipated game, Maxis. You're freakin' gonna kill my grades before I *have* any.

DVD player came. Dad called the service people because it only says "1" on it and they assured us that the chip has been replaced/modified/whatever to be code/zone/region free. Hooked it and my new TV up and tried out Big Fish. It's snazzy, let me tell you. Pretty picture. Pretty sound. Despite the size! Yea! Have already made first DVD order at Amazon UK. mwuahahahaha.

I cannot describe how much I *love* this song. ::points:: It's on the soundtrack to Garden State, but I had to go and find the version of it they use in the trailer. Heart both versions. Highly recommend this version (by The Postal Service) and the one on the CD (by Iron and Wine).

Leave for Seattle on Saturday morning. Saturday night Mom and I are thinking of seeing Vanity Fair. And then either Sunday or Monday night we're thinking of dragging Kay to see Garden State. It had better still be playing at Bella Botaga, or elsewhere, because if it's not...I'm going to make empty threats. ::shakes fist::

Will have to wait and see. Right now I'm off to dinner. Whee.
