They took away my television

I spent about 20 minutes yesterday watching the previews on the pay per view channel. Why would I do that you ask? Well, the satellite wasn't working for some reason, and I really felt like watching television. A bit later my husband came home and nonchalantly told me: "oh, I cancelled our satellite subscription today".

Panic stricken.

Speechless.

You see, even though I have a license to practice medicine, I spend three days a week alone at home, and all the company I have is the likes of David Bromfield and Angelo Surmelis from HGTV. They have become like family to me. My husband suggested I use my laptop to keep me company. Hence the blog. And this picture:


We need a lot of furniture for our new house, and I like this table. Wouldn't those high chairs squish your knees up against the bottom of the table though?


Actually, I already had a blog on my myspace page, but I decided I didn't like it - the myspace page that is. This happened when a psycho ex-boyfriend sent me a friend request out of the blue. His creepy little photo was up in the corner. When I say psycho ex-boyfriend I don't mean like he called me too many times at home after we broke up, I mean psycho like he has the letters S-H-A-L carved into his forearm (too much of a wuss to finish the whole name I guess). He also threatened to eat rat poison if I broke up with him (unfortunately he never did).

So anyway, this is my first post.

That bastard that took away your television sounds like a real dick.

Why don't you drop that zero and get with the hero?

If I carved your name into my arm I'd start at the armpit and write your first, middle, and last name until I ran out of arm or passed out from blood loss.

Yes, maybe that ex is a teeny bit on the side totally fucking insane, but I remember you gave him a swift kick right to the gonads, brave chica! Oh boy was that fun to see!

You may have to do something about that hubby tho... how could you, Keith? Cruel on the tv. Just cruel.

Bad husband! Bad! No HGTV? Sad. What will you do when your fingers get all buzzy from the touchpad on your laptop (what? only me?) what will satisfy your need to passively learn things with images to accompany? Books? I love books. Books are work. Books don't have outfits and cute rooms for me to envy ... well some of them do. But for the money, TV and Web are much cheaper! Use less trees!
