1.) Okay, so it turns out that a digital converter box- which we now need in the US because all of our bases have gone off the analog signal- is $60, but if I wait until the 23rd for a coupon it will be $15. So no "Merlin" for me unless I go to someone's house. And no cable because when I called Verizon they told me they don't work in my area. So I'll probably be getting Comcast, which probably won't be set up for a bit. Basically, after Friday 6/19 I won't be around on evenings or weekends for a week or two.
This is bad for obvious reasons, but it's also good because I can catch up on my sleep, my reading, and get back into running and stuff. By the time I get back online in the evenings you'll be SO HAPPY TO SEE ME, you'll have forgotten what a cranky, bitchy rotten person I've been for the past month and a half. IT WILL BE GREAT!
Of course any time I'm over at Patti and Bran's watching "True Blood" I'll be on, and if I can piggyback a signal I'll do it too. I'm not nuts...

Shia LaBeouf shakes hands with-- WHAT?! He does! He said so himself! Personally, if this really happens I will be very VERY upset.

lethokis - sending your story back tomorrow. I got home a bit late and I'm behind on some things, and the opening music for "The Bourne Supremacy" has been playing over and over for the past 30 minutes and I WANT TO FINISH MY DINNER AND WATCH KARL URBAN SHOOT MATT DAMON. Yes, that is how the movie goes IN MY MIND.
4.) I wrote a lot of entries today. Probably because I got a full night's sleep (on the couch, but who's counting?) last night. Doing it again tonight, I think. :)
