3 more days...
...til i return to tv. Time Warner shows up saturday to hook me up with some bad ass HD cable service. Combined with my super cool double recliner leather sofa, I may never leave my apartment again. ever. I will have cable in time for the season premiere of the OC on November 2nd! wooohoo! Life after Marissa is the storyline for season 4, and it'll be totally fascinating I'm sure.
Life without regular tv (aside from what I've been catching on the DVR that still resides at my old home) has been strangely refreshing, but I gotta tell you, I am SO looking forward to having it back in my life, as it will be bigger and better. And there will be FOOTBALL! Good times.

pathetic, i know
Okay, so I have deserted both tv and this blog. You don't know how much it pains me to not have been in possession of television for the past two weeks since I have moved into my new place. But, I am finally getting my act together - I ordered a bitch ass tv that will be arriving this evening, and Time Warner is showing up next week to hook me up with some HD cable service. I CANNOT WAIT to watch football and my shows on my new HD flat screen. SWEET. So, now I will be not only a homeowner but the proud owner of a super sweet 40" LCD HDTV. Life is good. I totally PROMISE that my blog will be back to its regularly scheduled programming once I've got things set up which should be by next weekend. Then I can watch and write about my shows again. And football! In HD! Woohoo!

and done.
My tv watching habits have died a slow terrible death in the past week or two due to the Big Move. That's right kids, I've officially occupied my new place of residence and have been completely absorbed in doing "homeowner" stuff. And so I'm at least two weeks behind on tv with no end in site. Well, okay I take that back. I'd like to think that eventually I'll get settled in and then once the bad ass tv I am buying shows up, tv will be back in full swing! Until then... Penn State this weekend! Cafe on Friday! Tailgating on Saturday! Michigan-PSU Saturday nite! Ohhhh, it's going to be a bad ass weekend. Just like the tv I don't have yet. bad ass.

melting pot
Okay, so much for Racist Survivor. I'm still terribly behind in my tv, but managed to sneak in a few shows last night anyway while continuing my packing chores: season premiere of Desperate Housewives, Dancing with the Stars (okay fine, I only actually watched the last five minutes of the elimination episode to see who got booted), Laguna Beach and Racist Survivor. I have lots to say about all three, but since I am somewhat limited in my time here with lots going on at work, I will confine my comments to the last one, because I just want to express my EXTREME disappointment that Racist Survivor is racist no more! They went ahead and mixed up all the tribes to make two big tribes of all different ethnicities, so now it's not NEARLY as ignorant as it was in the first couple of episodes! How disappointing. All the hype about Racist Survivor for nothing. Nothing! Now it's just Survivor: Cook Islands, and that's just not nearly as fun. hmph.
