Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Do not taunt happy fun weather.
Heh. Well, it peaks on the 10th so less than a week to go. I know stuff can still go down after that but with any luck R and I will not be riding out a storm while she's in my care.
Fiona was swallowed up by Earl. Gaston seems to be just a wave now... fingers crossed.
So far, a successful pace run (despite vicious heat, i.e., 75 degree temps) and much playing around with my new GPS watch/program. Now to pick up the house for a friend's visit and then brunch and gay BEACH!
Right. Picking up the house. Should totally get on that. But there's this tennis thing on TV....
And, damn, I really need to get another bookshelf and also get rid of/digitise my video tapes. I don't have a VCR anymore, and I really need that space for my DVDs which are lying all over the place.
What are reasonable prices for VHS->DVD transfers? I have a lot of hand-recorded capoeira that I really don't want to toss.
ita, it'd probably be cheaper for you to buy a VHS/DVD recorder and then unload it on CL when you're done than to pay someone to transfer them. Those places will rip you off.
I just spent an ungodly amount at Sears, but in three weeks I will have a kickass new stove & fridge. Let's hope my current units last out the month.

Huh. They do seem to be under $100. You make a very good point.
eta: Wait, those require a VCR. Hmm.

You could probably get a VCR off Freecycle.
I think if you had an Apple they have an analog import jack that would let you run a VCR directly into the computer to capture the video.
I'm pretty sure I'm a giant emergency preparedness fail. Unless you count having plenty of paper towels.
Have marketed (no empanadas and bread guy was cleaned out when I got there at 9:30!,) pedicured, and Targetted. Now I will tape and apply stripper. Then pool and TJs followed by more stripping and some laundry. Trying to get a lot of the regular stuff out of the way because I need to do shoe shopping tomorrow.
ita, [link] says it has VCR-> DVD dubbing
Thank, -t. Refurbished is exactly my target market.
I think I've given up on the bookshelf thing for today. I've pretty much clogged up all my wall space. Not enough storage room in this apartment, dammit.
Just participated in a 15 comics meme. Now to wake from that reverie.
