Already such a good weekend! I went to my parents place last night (which did take forever, the TTC is not so good this weekend) and had a lovely home cooked meal, got to see Hocus Pocus on tv and generally had a nice relaxing evening. Then today I picked up the finishing touches for my halloween costume, bought Pillsbury cookies for my work party on Tuesday, and totally behaved myself and didn't buy lots of extra crap. So when my brother suggested a Value Villiage trip I figured I could go quickly and see if there was anything really fun there.

So I'm browsing through their CD section and what first caught my eye was Kristen Bell-Murray's cd. She's a friend of Nomi's so I thought I should give that one a good home. Then I'm looking more and saw a Cheap Suits cd, much fun as I'd seen then in highschool and always regretted not picking up the cd. Alas it was not to be because the case was empty (I hate that.) I decided to try my luck searching through the shelves to see if anyone just took the cd out and left it lying around or on another case... and came across some comedy duo's case which was missing the front cover, "aha" I think, something could be in here. So I pulled it off of the top of the shelf and peeked in to see a copy of the Black Widow DVD! This is the movie Sarah Slean was in last winter which, as of yet, is not out on DVD at all. Much joy and running around the store ensued :)

I just did a quick look over the disc and it appears to be working just fine, I'm having a fabulously happy fangirl moment, I know what my Sunday viewing is consisting of :)

how in the...how did you...I can't believe that you have a copy of that dvd!? Is it like an official dvd? I'm so jealous!

What it appears to be is a promotional copy, one the director would be giving out to stations to see if they'd pick it up, or perhaps studios to see who'd want to put it out on DVD, so it looks official, like it's not just a blank DVD written on in felt pen, it's actually a DVD press. In my parent's neighbourhood there are a lot of film studios so it probably came from someone who works at one of them :) It was complete chance, it didn't even have a proper case.

I also still can't believe you found that DVD! What are the chances you'd find it? You wanted it... and there it was waiting for you. So lucky!

I love it when random good things like that happen :) I wasn't even supposed to be at my parents house this weekend ;)

I am jealous of you and your extremely random and extremely fortunate DVD find. :)

I'm hoping that it means they're looking for a distributer for a DVD release. That would be fabulous :)
