Tom’s Garage

I’ve been eying LCD TVs for a while now but the price has just been too high for me. I finally saw a reasonable deal on a 46″ flat panel LCD and decided to order it. I figured, the “big” TV in my house is 12 years old and 27″ and with all of the HD mumbo jumbo, it was time for a change (of course, I won’t be able to afford to rent any movies for the next 5 years).

This puppy looks nice — I went and saw it in the store and then ordered online for $200 less. It arrived at my place last week and has been sitting in its box since then, completely unopened. Think about that! 5.5 years ago I would have yanked it out within 30 seconds and it would have been spitting out useless drama in 5 minutes. But the problem now is, I don’t have an “official” place to put it yet. If I unbox this sucker it will act on its primary mission, to be a kid magnet. I had visions of Ben jamming a screwdriver through the front in an attempt to see who is living in there. I just need to get a new entertainment unit in place and I’ll be cool. But for now, it is *killing* me.

Family update: Ben stands up to pee now. Though he’s trying to snag the Willpower title from me by waiting until the last second every darn time. Crikey!
