Aug. 18th, 2008 08:05 pmThere may be, quite simply, not enough woe in the world. I'm there this evening, with my dinner, wanting to look at something to chill out, as my mouth feels like it is not my own after an appointment with the orthodontist. So I say to myself, "Self," I say, "What can I look at that is appropriate to my miserable mood?"
Then I say to myself, with a little nod to
maggis "Put on Due South, Juliet is Bleeding because (a) it's a kick ass episode and (b) you'll be so wrung out after looking at that, you won't care about your mouth."
So I did. And I've not seen that ep since I got the DVDs, and loved it then, and it's just as good as I remembered it, and the whole car blowing up thing (which I saw back in the day, pre internet, pre spoilers, had no idea it was coming and just was dumbfounded, even going to
smiley_b "Did they just do that?) was just as jaw dropping as ever, and then it happens.
MY DISC FREEZES MID SCENE!
I mutter curses, I take it out, I clean it. It happens again. Lather, rinse repeat, same result.
MY DUE SOUTH DVDS ARE DEFECTIVE, FROM NOWHERE, IN MY FAVOURITE EPISODE! (OK, it may be tied for first with Victoria's Secret but it's my LJ, I'll be dramatic if I want to.)
And I can't figure out why, unless they came loose in the move and scratched then... I know I lent out my S3s to someone but can't remember if they took the S2 as well... surely if they weren't working, something would have been said?
*woe*
