i broke down...

i did it.

i broke down.

i broke down and bought a new tv.

i've been on a tv detox for about 9 weeks.

it's been good for me but damn i've missed it.

my sweet, sweet tv.

i got an inexpensive flat screen for my room and tomorrow, mr. cable man is set to arrive between 8am-10am.

i'll believe it when i see it.  have they ever been on time?  ever even made it in the window they promised?

i don't care when he comes.

as long as he brings my beautiful cable box with free dvr for a year.

bring it, comcast!

tv detox

i admit it.

i love tv.

i really do.

i like watching it before bed.   while i'm making jewelry.  or just when something good is on.

i like the option.

i decided to leave my tv behind when i moved.  p. and i bought it before we moved to LA and that was in 2003.  and let's just say it wasn't top of the line.  it's been a fine tv but lately, it's been losing it's color.

so hauling it wasn't worth it.

i admit i had hopes of buying a new flat panel tv once i settled in.  but too many other bills have had to be paid.

oh how i miss my sweet, sweet tv.

so it's just me and my laptop.  and my itunes.

i've taken this lack of tv opportunity to watch some new shows.

that's how i arrived at "dexter".

and i'm hooked.

i've been watching it at night before i go to bed and often times falling asleep on an episode.

not the best images to have in your mind before you drift off to sleep.

you see, dexter is a serial killer.  a charming one, but still a serial killer.  you get the drift....

before, i was falling asleep to "ncis" and having delightful dreams about mark harmon.  now i dream of michael c. hall and bloody crime scenes.

might be time for a new bedtime show....but damn i love it.
