I need to buy the Starbursts in some weird future AU where I have money again. HAHAHAHA.

Sorry. Just... haven't managed to work at all this week.

If my old team has an open slot (as they should) by then, I may see about going back to work away from the house by December. Bleh.

Brokeback Mountain made me weep like a baby, though, so I feel all refreshed and purged, and maybe I can bring myself to actually do something that pays now.

really though? the first season isn't at all arc-y and watching them in random order doesn't hurt.

Even if there's no big arc, are they so random there's no character development or anything?

At any rate, are these Starburst editions in an order that makes some sort of sense?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I just read a book with a character named Jack Schitt. h He was a villain.

Thrive to spite them

lisah, it's really not bad and the weird pairings don't last the whole season. We just finished with episodes 15 & 16. The next disc is episode 17 & 18.

There maybe is a tiny bit of Zhaan stuff, but everything else is understandable.

In the first half of the season, not really. As it goes on, more and more events will start to matter later, but the first 8 or so eps are more or less complete standalones.

Thanks for all the information! I tried to look for the Starburst ones on Amazon and the first season is broken up into 3 "collections" that are $20 each. Is there someplace better to look?

I'm so remedial!

(Also, very tired today because I got the best super secret birthday surprise last night--my friends took me to see Dolly Parton. I didn't know that's where we were going until we were inside the concert hall. I cried and laughed A LOT. She is a goddess.)

deepdiscountdvd.com often has better prices than Amazon,but I don't know if they have the Starburst editions.
