I thought I lost it

Last Saturday, I bought the "Corner Gas" DVDs for seasons 3 and 4. I watched them all by yesterday morning. Unfortunately, the second disc of Season 4 had a scratch on it so I couldn't actually watch parts of at least two of the episodes, so I exchanged them yesterday. My sister dropped me off at work afterward so I just left them in the car. Last night, my sister (who is pretty darn awesome) picked me up at work at midnight. I mentioned something about the DVDs and she said she didn't remember seeing them. This made me start to think that I had left them in the shopping cart at the grocery store rather than puttin them in the car. I was kind of worried about them but not enough to actually check the car. Eventually, I did check the car but only because to not would have been the heights of laziness seeing as I was two feet away from it. They were sitting right in plain sight for which I was greatly relieved. So I was very glad that the things I thought were lost were not lost at all.

Not a lot going on...

Last week was the final episode of a TV show called "Corner Gas." "Corner Gas" is a Canadian TV show that was filmed in Regina,SK (where I am from). It's pretty much a show about life in a small, fictional Canadian town called "Dog River." It was quite funny and lasted for 6 seasons. I had the first two seasons on DVD and watched them a lot when I was living in Boston and homesick for Saskatchewan. I didn't tend to watch the episode when they were actually airing but I loved having the DVDs around. They definitely make me laugh. In its six season, it featured two of Canada's sitting Prime Ministers as well as various Canadian celebrities including politicians (PM-Paul Martin, PM - Stephen Harper, MP - Ralph Goodale, Sask Premier - Lorne Calvert, Regina Mayor - Pat Fiacco), musicians (the Tragically Hip, Jann Arden, Colin James), reporters (Lloyd Robertson) and actors (Shirley Douglas, Kiefer Sutherland) and that's just off the top of my head, I probably forgot quite a few. Yesterday, I bought seasons 3 and 4 and have been working my way through them for the past couple of days. I have been enjoying them quite a lot. So has my sister.
Here's a clip from the first episode ever:


The show has a good mixture of language based humour and snarkiness that is a combination I really like. Plus, it is filmed in and about Saskatchewan so I am really able to relate to it.
