I guess it’s been a while since I’ve written here.
I don’t have a lot of words these days.
I’m studying for the MCAT, now, since I did well enough in bio and physics to justify continuing on this quest. I have a lot of studying to do. It seems that my head *still* resembles a sieve, and whatever physics I learned a few short months ago has left my brain.
Argh.
We are in the process of ditching cable and setting up DVR in another way, using either TiVo or a computer-based DVR and HD-TV over the air. I realize many people do this already, and we are late to the game, and I also realize that many people think we’re insane for doing this. It’s been quite a bone of contention between DB and I how to proceed, for reasons I don’t entirely understand…anyway, has anyone done this? The ditching cable, setting-up-some-other-DVR-thing-using-an-antenna, I mean? Any thoughts or suggestions?
Otherwise, life is in a weird, sort of apathetic holding pattern. In rare form, I have almost nothing to say.
How are you all doing?

We didn’t get rid of cable- we keep talking about it. We even upgraded our desktop so that we can stream internet to our TV (we can watch the daily show and colbert report on hulu, and netflix streams). But that leaves us with no DVR or true blood (yes I am an addict) so I will not approve of it yet. I would rather spend less $$ on food than get rid of our TV right now… I am terrible.

We’ve never had cable. We used a combination of Hulu and a video capture card on our computer to record broadcasts. But now we haven’t upgraded with the HD broadcasting change, so we’re TV free with the exception of a few shows we catch on Hulu. Love it! =)

I absolutely love cable…but then again, I watch way too much TV, so don’t listen to me, study for the MCATS!
