I gotta give <a href=\"http:\/\/www.menswearhouse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Men\u2019s Wearhouse<\/a> props. It wasn\u2019t exactly a cheap trip, but the threads look nice, and they were obtained with no fuss whatsoever. I don\u2019t like spending time shopping for clothes. If someone can give me some choices to look at and pick from, I\u2019m a happy camper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The newly-released (in region 1, anyway) DVD set for three of my all-time favorite Dr. Who serials (<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Keeper_of_Traken\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Keeper of Traken<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Logopolis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Logopolis<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Castrovalva_(Doctor_Who)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Castrovalva<\/a>) arrived yesterday. Cool DVD extras, and I get to see them in the best quality I\u2019ve probably ever seen them in. The only time I\u2019ve ever seen them is from the original VHS recordings I made *mumblemumble* years ago from PBS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the <a href=\"\/?p=365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">previous post<\/a>\u2026 Yes, I know it was cryptic and I didn\u2019t allow comments so people could ask the obvious question. I wanted to put it out there how happy I was, and I wanted to have it recorded in the context of when it happened. However, doing it justice requires more detail than I\u2019m willing to put on the site right now. I promise I\u2019ll write about it once I figure out how I want to write about it. For one thing, it\u2019s still very much a story in progress. Just know that it made me very very happy. Amy can confirm that. She saw it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What started out yesterday as just a good day is turning into a peach of a weekend.
