So I've been debating on whether or not to post this because of how ridiculous I think it is, but here we go. Jason decided he needed something new for the house. You see, Jason and I still have the TV's that we've had since we were mere kiddos. I personally like the TV's. They work. They've been by our sides through thick and thin. But, conveniently, Jason's TV developed a nice little sound as soon as we moved in. I didn't mind the puttering. Turn the volume up a little, and it was barely noticeable. Jason only used the sound to help his cause. I never quite agreed to this purchase, but somehow, we now have a replacement for Jason's TV.
Our old TV. I love it. It is great.
The replacement. Apparently, they don't even sell sets like ours anymore. Who knew? Jason wanted a 3D flat screen, but settled for a "regular" 46 inch LED. Ridiculous, I know. This is now the reason we are never able to open our blinds again. To me, it's only a big invitation to people to rob our house. (Disclaimer: If any robbers read this blog, please do not come take our TV.)
If you look at it from this angle, it is like it isn't even there.So, in conclusion, happy birthday, Christmas, and anniversary for the next 3 years, Babe. I hope you enjoy your new present.
On another note, our automatic gate opener decided to stop working this morning. We didn't know how to manually override it, so we had to borrower Ferryn and Steve's extra car to get to work. I decided to take the bus home instead accepting rides from friends and co-workers. I'm paying for parking downtown right now, and I thought riding the bus would help me make a decision on whether or not I could cancel my parking contract to continue to take the bus or ride my bike. Here's the pro and con list I put together after my fun ride.
Pro's
1. Cheaper than paying for a parking contract.
2. Environmentally friendly.
3. I would be walking nearly a mile a day. (0.5 miles from my house to the bus stop twice a day.)
4. During the walk, it would be nice getting a little sun.
Con's
1. I still haven't come up with a solution for bad weather days.
2. The bus goes through the ghetto so it is a bit stinky and crowded.
And the possible deal breaker...
3. I got honked at 3 times and a "hey you want a ride" offer on my walk home today. I wasn't even wearing my "Honk if you dig this" T-shirt.
So, we shall see. Luckily, Jason found a way to temporarily work the gate, so this isn't a decision I have to make today.

Honk if you dig this! lol I love it! And I kinda figured the tv would make it's way to you eventually... like father like son!
Well, boys must have their toys. At least it didn't come with 2 wheels, huge motor and a new lifestyle! I think the parking situation is worth it. Blond hair in S. TX is enough of a come-on, you don't even need the t-shirt. Think of all the comments and stares you get every time you come home! LOL
