dvd player; dvds: life on mars

[amezri]

Came home from work early. Besides dealing with regular work bullfrell, I also had a fun case of extra special vertigo. It's that feeling you have 10 minutes after you stepped off the Tilt a Whirl -- almost back to normal, but everything's still a bit wobbly. Fun!

Wooohoo! HMV.co.uk is having a huge DVD sale and I just picked up Life on Mars series 1 & 2 for basically half off. Sweet :D

I had to stop at Price Chopper on the way back. I brought my Giant Jar of Coins to get counted at the CoinStar. $51.56 in change! WOOOOOt! The best part is they don't even charge for the coin counting service if you choose an eCard, so I got one for Amazon. Will be looking up some stuff there. Perhaps SGA season 3 and A Dog's Breakfast? Yes....

Setup the new DVD player. Got a Philips DV5960. So far, it's played two discs full of AVIs that wouldn't play on the old Philips. I suspect it's because of PAL issues. Region free hack worked a treat. So far so good! Just waiting for my HDMI cable to come in so I can fiddle with upscaling, which I'm told doesn't really work that well anyway.

Off to have a lie down...

Vertigo is the worst. If it keeps up, go see your doctor immediately. And buy yourself some Bonine to help with the spinnies whenever you can't just stay home and rest.

Eh. I've had constant weird shifting vertigo dizziness for a couple years. Have gotten a ton of tests done by my GP and specialists and even got directed to a shrink. None of them can give me a medical reason why. It's annoying :\ So I just learn to deal with it.
