it was super crazy at work this week but it’s almost over. yay for the weekend!

i don’t have much to say but i will say - 1. high definition is pretty much the best thing ever and 2. i had one of the best sandwiches i’ve ever had in my life today. it was ham and typically i don’t even like ham.

that is all. 

i have a confession … i have a serious addiction to my TiVo, HDTV, and cable.

i subscribe to every channel my cable company offers except the international ones (who needs television in spanish?) which totals to 273 channels. because i have so many options i’ve discovered that my TiVo makes some amazing suggestions when it comes to movies, especially since i have all the premium movie channels and there are some great things on there.

although i only have 91 items saved on there right now, which is a lot less than i had imagined. the problem is that at least a quarter of those are movies that are two hours or longer. if i watch five hours of tv a day it will take me three weeks or more to get caught up and that doesn’t include any shows that would be recorded between now and then. i need to come up with a strategy to make a dent in this.

and now, the list …

so the new shoes that i have are awesome. i laced the shoes up in a very skaterish way (”props” to Joe on that one). i think i have to buy they grey one’s so i can wear them with everything.

i have a couch now. so the couch and the tv just make my place normal for once. the tv alone is amazing. i can’t get enough. hd television is pretty much the most amazing thing ever.

bleh. i’m sleepy and need to get to bed. i just can’t think. more later.

omg this tv is amaaaaaaazing. 46″ of wowness. the picture quality is beyond words. it’s a bit crazy going to a tv that’s twice the size as the old one. it’s taking a bit of adjustment but i think i can manage. getting the damn thing was a journey in and of itself. i had requested dhl to make another delivery attempt so i decided to work from home so i could be here for that. of course they still had it on hold at the station for pick up so my friend andrew and i had to rent a zipcar and journey down to the southside to pick it up. that was just grand. as we were walking down broadway to pick up the car it was sleeting and i was trying to have a conference call with work. good times. i finally got the tv and it was sort of worth the battle. especially the one i had trying to set it up. it ended up being a lot heavier than i had expected. i tried lifting it out of the box only to realize that it wasn’t happening. so i had to lightly turn the box over on its side and slide the tv out and drag it into the living room. at this point i had to muster enough strength up to pick it up off the floor.

good times.

after reviewing my most current cell phone bill i have determined that i have enough rollover minutes saved up that i could talk on the phone for five consecutive days and never hang up and still have a bit left over.

bleh, what is up with me having even less to talk about than normal?

i have made the ultimate purchase! a 46″ HDTV. i’m beyond excited about it. i didn’t have plans to get one for a few months but i came across an amazing deal and i just couldn’t resist. this could quite possibly be the best purchase i’ve ever made (right after the HD TiVo). as if i wasn’t addicted to tv now. i can’t freaking wait to watch nat geo & discovery channels in HD.

saturday was a lazy day. and then today was filled with trying to walk around in the slush/ice that has covered all of the sidewalks. i went to the grocery store earlier this evening and i stepped in what i thought was just snow but actually turned out to be a pool of ice water covered by snow. this weather needs to disappear as soon as possible. i’m so very ready to bust out the shorts.

i thought i had more to write about but i’ve clearly since forgotten everything temporarily. later perhaps.
