So many channels, so little time.

Ok, for all of you that know me, you know that I'm not much of a TV fanatic, due to the fact that I blame my lack of enthusuasm for life soley on watching and wasting away my life in front of a TV. My choice of course, however as an adult, I've spent most of it so far shunning the likes of the "WB" or who can out-do eachother as far as the crime scene shocker shows (bloated flesh not so much on my must-see list), and even the Ellen show is not able to tempt me for very long (even though she is pretty darn good at what she does!).

Needless to say there is a reason why I don't know what HI-DEF is, or why the only TV I have ever owned is an old set that I grew up with and my parents owned PREVIOUS to any kids..hey, it works, and WELL for the 4-5 channels I may get depending on the weather! Well...that all changed (grumble), and I can't stop progress.

Heath decided that since he spends sooooo much time at my house anyway, he would like to broaden his variety as far as entertainment was concerned, which is fine for me, because other than those few channels, we have been able to work on our relationship and play catch-up on some reading, all to which led us to the great breakthrough moment of "gee, we can do other stuff now and feel like we wouldn't be ignoring eachother now!" Hence (dum, dum, dum) CABLE! Not just any cable.....the platinum package AND a DVR for all those sports highlights he can pause, rewind, pause...rewind, oh you get the point. I feel this is a good thing because he made a great point in telling me 2 things...one: he HATES going out somewhere else to be able to watch a football game, he would rather stay here and cuddle (yes, he said CUDDLE), and two: he says that nothing solidifies a relationship then a first combined bill (DON"T PANIC!!) Let me explain:

The Combined Bill:
Ok, we have cable and now, obviously the internet. So this is how it's broken down. I told him from the very beginning that I did not support cable because it's evil and takes away good interactions, so I would not spend one brass farthing towards anything TV related...well fine and dandy for him, he got me when he said it would be cheaper if we got INTERNET. That got me, ya'll know how much of a webwhore I am (chuckle), so I end up giving in only because all I'm paying for is the net, which is waaaaaaaay less than what he's paying for, and it's all in his name, so if anything amiss happens (knock on wood), then he can take his cable and even internet and...well, you get it. I think the only thing good that can come of this TV business is that we get the BYU channel, so I get to watch conference again!!! Other than that...

Needless to say all is doing well, my family is coming for christmas and I'm completly stoked, I have a good job (when cust aren't yelling), and a wonderful guy who takes care of me, and even does my dishes! I'm happy and content for the first time in my life, and after everything I've gone through, it was worth it! Now if only that pesky nerve in my back would become un-pinched so that these bloody headaches would go away, oh well, if that's the only annoyance I suffer, I'm good! Anywhoo, fingers are out of practice and they ache..lol...cheers!
