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!

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:

I want to flip my house around.   :mad:    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!
