Amazon Deals: Classic Holmes, HIMYM, Big Bang Theory, Coraline

A handful of nifty Amazon DVD deals:

If you're a fan of either the Jeremy Brett or the Basil Rathbone versions of Sherlock Holmes, they're the Deals of the Day at Amazon. The complete Brett set goes for $96.99 (56% off), and the complete Rathbone collection is going for $59.99 (54% off).

Note that you can also get most of the individual sets at 40-55% off, in case you're already started building a collection.

You can also nab any season of How I Met Your Mother for $14.99 a pop. Ditto for the first two seasons of The Big Bang Theory.

Finally, the single-disc 3D edition of Coraline is only $6.99 (65% off). The same price/deal applies to Curious George 2: Follow that Monkey, as well.

State of the yendi

Still sick. Better today than before, but still have a mild fever and a not-so-mild sore throat, as well as a hacking cough. Acetaminophen has been my friend.

A trip to the doctor yesterday confirmed that it wasn't strep, flu, or pneumonia (or anthrax). Just a nasty virus. It's been a long time since anything has kept me down for this long, and I can't say I like it. No sir, not one bit.

If all goes well, I'll set foot in the office for the first time in nearly a week tomorrow.

Life with 'song and Adam

shadesong: I just don't get Foursquare.

yendi: Me neither. I'm the mayor of not giving a shit.

(Aside: Not interested in pissing in anyone's Cheerios; I just don't find four million Facebook and Twitter updates about places you visit regularly much more interesting than the ones about what you ate for lunch.)
