in sad news, my DVD player finally "gave up the ghost" yesterday, which led to upgrading in the tech world - a BlueRay player.
y'happy now, techies? *pllth*
it is kinda cool - plays DVDs, too, so I don't have to re-start my collection, and WiFi-connects to my netflix as well as pandora and youtube (and a couple others I never heard of nor do I want to mess with).
*whew*
NOTE: I have been informed that it's called a "BluRay," but is it my fault they couldn't spell "blue" correctly? No, I didn't think so.
as its name derives, information states, from a "blue" laser, then I'm gonna call it as it is and BlueRay it shall be!

intrigue on the tracks and trails this afternoon - was nearly plowed down by a speeding wide-eyed boy clad only in his underwear...
shortly thereafter these two girls in cheerleader-minis walking slowly, all smiles and giggly "hi"s, one carrying jeans, the other shoes...
I'm unsure if I interrupted "preteen playtime" or if I just gave that kid a head-start from some playful girls who had him in their sights!

I slightly re-organized my apartment, albiet only the shelves, surprisingly opening up some space between the kitchen and living room. Yay?
in unusually good timing, I actually picked up some alcohol prior to the DVD player dying and - in honour of its passing - had a drink last night and shall have another shortly.
Huzzah, olde friend, you may have been noisy and sometimes tried to skip a chapter, but a good, cheap player you were!
