lance_sibley | Cousins... identical cousins... (Reply)

I'm still on a bit of a high from doing all that laundry yesterday. *giggle*

I popped into Future Shop today to see if they'd finally put out their one copy of Erasure's new album, and found it on the shelf. Yay! I was walking toward the DVD section when I saw someone whom I thought was the young man who'd previously been helping me try to find it, and said to him, "I see you finally managed to find it for me." He looked at me blankly. I thought that maybe I'd misidentified him, and said, "Oh, aren't you the guy who was looking in the back for me last week?" He said, "No, that must have been my cousin." I swear, they're identical. Or at least as close to identical as I can tell without actually seeing them next to each other, and with about a week between sightings.

It must have been a slow day in there, though, as he chatted with me for about 15 minutes and helped me to look for some of the other stuff I've been wanting to get. Still no season five of Six Feet Under. I did pick up season one of American Dad and a box set of CDs called Oh What A Feeling³, though.

Yeah, about that box set... now, I tend to buy mostly compilations and greatest hits albums. The only groups or singers that I can think of whose albums I will buy are Pet Shop Boys, Erasure and Franz Ferdinand, though I have a few Backstreet Boys (yeah, I know... bite me :P ), Boyzone (ditto) and Depeche Mode albums. The drawback to buying compilations and greatest hits is that sometimes you end up with multiple copies of the same song - for instance, "Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)" is on both New Wave Dance Party and Eurythmics Greatest Hits. That's fine. I can live with that. However... Nick Gilder's "Hot Child In The City" is on both disc three of Oh What A Feeling² and disc one of Oh What A Feeling³. WTF?

Off to do Gaylaxicon work now, I think...

Oh, and I picked up a few new icons today. This one came from
