My brother made a comment the other day about the way my room is beginning to slowly resemble a Blockbuster. Some people indulge in shoes, some in clothing; my weakness seems to be DVD box sets with an occasional CD thrown in (hel-loooooooooo Virgin's $10 Sacrilege Sale). During Amazon's latest DVD TV series sale I picked up The Lone Gunmen, The Complete Office Series (UK), and S1 of Stargate Atlantis. I'm surprised by how much I liked the first eppy of Atlantis, and hope for more time to make my way through it all. Then the other day I picked up S1 of Extras (sorta wish I had HBO so I could check out S2, but oh well). I have the complete Kids in the Hall DVD set on my wish list along with the complete Sports Night DVD. I was scoping out LOGO this evening and I saw Josh Charles in Threesome (was sort of interesting but Charles's character's VO was too over-the-top for me to watch more than 15 minutes), and that reminded me to add Sports Night.

That last sentence made some sense in my head, I swear.

I'm tired. Like, to the crazy-th degree. I've done three shifts on nights so far and things haven't been horrible, but I have yet to get a solo patient load. I spend a lot of time questioning my ability, and I guess it's par for the course when one's at any new job. BUT... *sigh*. I can be appallingly slow on the occasion, and I feel like my brain's been stuck on "molasses" during my training up to this point. I wonder if it's the stress I feel while working that screws me over, makes it hard for me to *think* and *recall*. It's very frustrating.

I've never been a big one for purchasing DVDs though I did buy Susie the first 3 seasons of Gilmore Girls last year. Aside from The Office (which I can see Susie buying) there aren't much that we both watch, and even the series I may watch like BSG and Stargate I have friends who buy them and I just borrow them afterwards.

Sports Night was a good show :)

FYI - Stargate Atlantis is not on HBO it is on the Sci-Fi channel. Unless you HBO has some things to reshow S2... (if so gomen).

*grin* I know SGA is on Sci-Fi. I just haven't gotten a chance to watch it because I have this thing about watching a series from the very beginning, and as I hadn't really picked up on SGA until the middle of S2 I found it impossible to go back and check out the previous episodes so I avoided it like the plague. I'm a bit spoiled as to what's happened at various points of the show, but I figure if I enjoy the series as much as I liked the first episode things will be all good.

And heck yeah Sports Night was good! *grin* I didn't realize the dialogue give-and-take was a hallmark of the creator. Good times, though.
