Worst. Addiction. Ever.

new to all of this but giving it a shot.

banged into work and slept till 11... great start to a Tuesday. went out to accomplish the little things that everyone has to do, i open the front door and what do i find? a new shipment of dvd's from an online service that makes buying dvds simple. stupid CH dvd Club(sidenote: this has taken over my life. all of a sudden, im in the hole like im digging to 6ft. all because i get a break on shipping or some other stupid reason. i liken it to going to Foxwoods on a sunday night. i think its gonna be so easy and im getting a bargain on my money because the "good"dealers had cleaned out the masses and gone home, only to find that after a weekend of Jim Beam and plotting my path of carnage throughout the vacant casino, that i am staring down at split 10's, kings on top and "the cleaner" is pulling out 5 card 21's to wipe out my stack in the 1st hour, that bitch! its a vicious cycle.) anyway, the minutiae checked off, i return home to retrieve my "winnings" from the front door. its a cardboard box that i should immediately write 'return to sender' on and drop in the nearest mailbox...

So i open this "treasure chest" and inside are my movies. finally, i think to myself as i tear open the cellophane and peel back the security warning stickers so i can survey the entertainment before me. its a trio of comedies and a couple of suspense movies and then i see it. the shining light, the catalyst for this online binge, my ace in the hole... the Alien&Predator Total Devastation Pack containing all 4 Alien movies, both Predators and both Alien v. Predators. This makes it all worth it.

at this point, im ecstatic and could care less about the other dvds that came in the box. i push them to the floor so i can admire the newest addition to my exponentially expanding collection. its not like the 6 discs of Rambo i just got or any of the other series i own. this is 8 discs of the best sci-fi stuff out there and now, its all mine. i carefully unwrap it and thumb through the titles. Predator and Alien, this is the stuff that has fueled my love of sci-fi and special effects for years and i now hold it all in my hand. my golden ticket. its time to fire up the dvd player, let my inner geek out and get started on the Alien Saga for the remainder of the afternoon...

God, I do love Tuesdays ~ Yes on 2
