Emmerdale and post post
Jul. 13th, 2006 08:01 pmIt's quite sad how every time Emmerdale do/try to do Epic Disaster I just end up giggling helplessly. Ah well. It was mostly pre-Explosion stuff - too much talking, not enough angst. Carl and Matthew were mostly mean to each other, though basically about who the other was sleeping with, which I choose to read biasedly. Also Matthew grabbed his arm and gave him a menacing look, which was nice. Chas and Sadie had a rather nice close-standing bitchfight. Chas has a degree, yay! And then the explosion and oh, oh, Carl was the beautiful voice of reason, standing highest on the pile of rubble and making everyone stop and listen. I love how he can both be in on the Kings' ruthless business stuff and yet also mucking in with the other villagers. He's a bit like a whore. But I love him.
And then ( Spoiler, I suppose )
In the past two days, I have received in the post/bought:
Ask not how much it all cost. I feel the urge to spend my newfound wages before I get accustomed to them and start budgeting. But I am THE HAPPIEST I HAVE BEEN IN WEEKS. And you MAY NOT SEE ME FOR MORE WEEKS. Hurrah.

In the past two days, I have received in the post/bought:
- The Philadelphia Story
- King Kong (2005)
- Strangers on a Train
- Third Rock from the Sun Season 1
- The hardcover English translation of Night Watch.
- UB40: The Best Of (it was £2.57, and let me get free Amazon Delivery, and I FEEL NO SHAME, shut up)
- That 70s Show Season 2
- Eerie Indiana: The Complete Series (yay!)
- Supernatural: Part One. Because I like the supernatural, and cars and weapons and pretty boys, and apparently incest, so I should give it a go.
