As if everyone didn't already know - yes, the Saints for the first time ever are going to the Superbowl.
But I'm not going to tell you about that. The funnier story is how I have thought for the past year that my t.v. didn't work, but actually it does. I really am just a moron.
So, there was that stupid "digital t.v." nonsense, and I got a converter box. And I thought I followed the instructions, but apparently I am illiterate (though what would the word be if you can't read/understand pictorial instructions?).
I was talking to my mom about my lack of t.v., looked some up at a few stores on line, realized how expensive they were now, and decided not to worry about it. However, over the phone I should point out, mom was all like did you do x, y, z. And I was all like "my t.v. doesn't have that"....."oh, wait, yes it does." Mom - you should connect blah blah blah. Me "if this works you are not allowed to make fun of me." It worked of course. Mom- in the background trying oh so hard to pretend that she wasn't laughing hysterically b/c to make sure you understand I must point out that she has never seen my t.v. or this converter box thing.
On the positive side, I was all set to watch the Saints game (but actually watched it elsewhere and embarrassed myself even more by failing at a Wii game). On the negative side, watched random t.v. shows all afternoon. At least, I did get to see The Big Bang Theory, which is the funniest show EVER (no, I don't care if you disagree). And now I can see new episodes of Criminal Minds considering I became addicted over break. More ways to procrastinate - not a good start to a fun filled semester of supposedly writing 90+ pages. But it never is....
