I Has Cable

I’ve been feeling overwhelmed again lately. I get this way sometimes, and I just can’t seem to relax. My OCD has been kicking my ass as of late, too. The constant need to keep my kitchen spotless at all times is starting to really get to me. It’s like I can’t do anything unless I know my kitchen is spotless. I feel like a freak, lol.
Anyway, we got cable again yeserday. I’d been watching “regular” television for quite awhile now, and not only do the channels not come in worth a damn, but I missed HGTV. Yes, I love the Home and Garden channel, don’t make fun. I love that show House Hunters and now I get to watch it again. Plus, I have that really nice lcd tv and who wants to watch regular fuzzy, crappy basic television on such a nice tv? Not me, that’s for sure.
Since I got cable television again, I went ahead and got the triple thing. Phone, Internet, Tv. With the HBO channels and the phone and internet, it’s going to average about $140 a month. I’m not quite sure that it’s worth it, but I figured I’d give it a go and if I don’t like paying that much or find that it’s getting too difficult, I’ll just downgrade and get rid of some channels and HBO. Then I’ll only be paying $99/month. Yeah, call me cheap.
I’m also glad that I got a new ISP because for some reason my DSL has been acting up quite a bit lately, and I’m also having trouble connecting to the router. I’m not sure if one has anything to do with the other, but Eric can’t use his computer and we can’t connect the Nintendo DS either, unless there is no passcode specified on the network. That means, if I make the network unsecure, we can log on freely, but when I secure it and enter the passcode, it just won’t work. It’s very frustrating.

My day is not complete without cable tv!
I also love Home and Garden channel and the Travel and Living. I am a sucker for those home makeover, cooking and travel shows 
OMG Sasha, Me TOO!! I love them.
I find friends who don’t have cable are always glued to the tv cause I have it. I did the same as you when I moved I made sure I had a sweet package deal. Though I don’t get HBO as I don’t want to pay for those 200 bonus channels But HGTV is good
I probably will not keep HBO, it doesn’t seem worth it. I also only mostly watch HGTV and my kid watches cartoon network and Disney. So I don’t know if I want to pay the extra just for something I probably won’t watch much anyway.
CABLE YES!!!!
Yeah IMO get rid of HBO you can always get the shows and movies elsewhere–oops did I type that…
ANYWAY!!!! OMG CABLE!!!!!! HISTORY TIME HERE YOU GO!!!!
Also::::::: Try TRY to look into History international. Even better then just History.
Yay for a triple plan. Cable TV is the best thing, cause those shows are just that good.
