Grrr

So I keep on looking at prices for "10,000 days" since the day it came out, but always I remember that I've got no money and so I go "No, be sensible. You can live without it."
Now, I recently had a project and I find the album for a very reasonable price and even though I have qualms about buying stuff for oneself when one should christmas-shop, I decided that Tool is fantastic enough to be a little naughty and get it.
What happens?

The fucking CD is warped! What are the odds of that?
And I can't exchange it before wednesday.

ARGH!

(no subject)

As was to be expected, christmas was not happy-happy-joy-joy, but rather a little surreality and a fair bit of shouting.
Thank fuck for Youtube to cheer me up. "Coupling" in particular.
So I give you the clips that allowed me to sleep:
