Our television died last night. I'm guessing that it got tired of showing political coverage and committed seppuku. I can't say that I blame it.

Normally my husband and I would be happy since this would give us an excuse to buy a flat screen. But since it's quite likely that Tom's going to get laid off next month (again...gah), dropping a bunch of money on a brand new toy would probably be unwise. So we've decided to wait a few weeks and see if we like living without television.

This should be an entertaining experiment, since I haven't lived without a television since college.

It's really pretty easy as long as you have the internet, lol. Nowadays you can legally (and not so legally) watch pretty much anything that is on TV either at the same time it airs or a little while after. Someone always posts it, either the official website or the fans.

We don't have television right now either, because of a big broo-ha-ha with DirectTV. Satellite is teh suxxors.

This is what I'm hoping, because I know that if I had to pick between internet and tv, it would be internet all the way.

Yay for you tube and bittorent, lol.
