In an effort to change things up a bit, I moved all the furniture in the living room. I’ve moved rooms around for the last twenty years, but my new house is rather limiting in how I can arrange things without encountering a door or a vent of some kind. I finally figured out a decent floorplan, but I didn’t anticipate one thing: Cats.
Hobbit and Istar were NOT pleased with the new arrangement. Well, in all fairness, Istar spends 98% of his day confused, so I can’t really blame the move for his oddness. Hobbit, however, has not stopped letting me know that she is not impressed. She’s been very surprisingly vocal about her dislike. She stood at the former location of the couch and howled. She refused to nap on the couch in it’s new location. She shot death rays from her eyes at every chance. I just can’t have my Hob so upset.
Today, I moved it all back.

For ages now, people living in my area have been unable to get NBC via satellite TV because our lawmakers have nothing better to do than legislate against it. Srsly. Anyway, thanks to my quick thinking, I devised a plan to use the new digital conversion box connected to a small, tech-y antenna my dad gave me years ago, and VOILA! I was finally able to watch Heroes first run on a real TV, lying on the couch, and not sitting hostage-style in my kitchen watching on an old, turndial TV that made everyone appear green or yellow, depending on the wind.
Victory is MINE!

Guess who just burned up dinner as well as her cutesy chef burner cover!
This is not the first time I’ve done something like this–actually it is the first time I’ve also ruined dinner while incinerating a burner cover, but it was just Rice-a-Roni, so I guess it’s no huge loss. Still….
I guess I’ll have to make a dinner of the truffles my mom brought me this evening. Thanks, Mom!
