[ddo] Next 2 weeks

Fri Apr 21 15:46:20 IST 2006

I had the weekend planned.
On Monday I ordered the complete Babylon 5 box set. I followed with eager
eyes the postoffice.co.uk website to track it. Ohhh now it's in England,
Holland and yesterday Denmark. I bought some nice red wine. I bought my
favorite crisps. I drove home today and thar she blows. A package for me
from play.com on my porch.
I took it inside, gently. I caressed it open so as not to scratch the
contents.
What was inside?

The Complete Dawson's Creek.

OMFG
