So I busted my ass to get home from work tonight at a reasonable hour. I had purchased the Return of the King 4-disc extravaganza on Tuesday but tonight was the first night I was going to be home. We have been out of our minds with the busy for the last several days—Christmas concerts with the NY Pops this weekend—so we won’t really have a chance to breathe until Sunday. Except for tonight.
And of course, tonight was the night the DVD player died the true death. You can put a disc in, but it either doesn’t load at all or it gets a little way into the hey-here’s-the-main-menu introduction and freezes solid.
Damn! And also Blast! And even Crap! My night of exquisite geekery, shot to hell. Now I’m researching DVD players instead. (Anybody with a recommendation is encouraged to make one right quick. I’m gonna screen the movie this weekend if it kills me.)
