NBC Returns

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!

Clone Loan

In order to move into this magnificent Lake House of mine, I financed the closing costs as a second (deferred) loan. It’s time to pay the piper, lawd. I just remembered the new loan payment begins January 1, 2009, and I just scheduled it to be paid through my online banking.

I am sooooo grown up. :clap:

My House Faces East

I want to flip my house around.   😡    Every evening, between 4-6pm, the sun and the reflection from the lake out back make viewing anything on my monitor nearly impossible.  Not only that, it makes the room too hot.  Speaking of hot, what the is up with the weather jumping from snowy days to highs in the 60s again?!?

Tuesday is Election Day, next Tuesday is Veterans Day, and Thanksgiving break is coming up soon after.  This is a pretty good month for R’nR, and cold temperatures can only add to the enjoyment of many naps to come.    Bring on the cold, I say!

Christmas came TODAY!

One of the students located a HUGE comic store in Times Square and thought I’d like to go, and was he right! This Boromir figure just jumped ahead of my Fellowship set as my favorite item in Fandom Room. I’m so in love with it I think I could die. I also scored two SG-1 Figures. I wish they had had a Carter, but I was able to pick up the Colonel O’Neill (better looking that General, and slightly more so than Black Ops O’Neill) and Jaffa Warrior Teal’c, who just looks amazing!

Yes, it’s been a good day in NYC afterall. I’ll be home this time tomorrow, and I’m actually ready to get home ASAP.

I want to see Ben and Jesse (hopefully) on their way home from Dollywood and now that Coley is around, I want to talk to her some more, too! Shrader and I will need to hang out and, oh, you get the picture. :love:
