monumental developments. mon-u-ment-al. it seems that this girl has not only gone off the o.c. - it seems that missing two weeks of desperate housewives was enough to remove the urge to watch that, too. it might have something to do with a recent dvd purchase - satc season six. i now own the complete series, and i really don't care that all the dvd cases don't match. i will admit though, when i heard that the box set was coming out in a shoe box, i was nearly reduced to tears. at that stage i owned series two, three and five (they were on special, okay?), and there was no way i was going to spend upwards of a hundred and fifty dollars to own three duplicates (god, i'm sounding like a real indian now, aren't i? shoebox? what shoebox! i have one of those at home!). anyway, so i ended up collecting one and four (yes, on special), and finally last week i added six to the mismatched (but happy) family. and every free second i get, i've been re-acquainting myself with the final series of sex and the city. last night i finished with the ep where smith shaves his head in support of samantha. but tonight - no dvds. a quick look at the tv guide forecasted the return of big train. brilliant!
