Now Playing - Huz laughing at M*A*S*H* in the next room.
Now Eating - nothing - I am STUFFED.
Now Feeling - full.
Now Tweeting - Melanie


We finally felt brave enough to have my parents over to see the new place, and naturally went out for barbeque afterwards. Now I smell like smoke and beef. And the parents love the house.


Our cell phone contract is up next month, and we're looking to move on. We've been with T-Mobile for seven years, and are sick of 'em. From the outrageous text message fees (outrageous when I run up $30 in texts and the website will not allow me to add a text message bundle to my plan) to them screwing us out of a hundred bucks to the lousy reception, it's time to go.

So.

Do you like your cell company? And do you like your phone? And please, don't dangle an iPhone before me if you have one. It just makes me drool, and then the keyboard gets all messy. Seriously though, I'd love one (::drools::), but it's not in the cards. Or the checkbook.

And here's a rather stupid, you-know-very-well-what-the-answer-is- why-are-you-asking-us? kind of question. We had compact fluorescent bulbs in as many fixtures as we could in our old apartment. Here, since the place was brand new, it came with bulbs. Standard, energy-wasting, damn-those-75-watt-floods-are-BRIGHT bulbs. Huz was of a mind to let them burn out and replace them with CFLs. I'm of a mind to spend money now to save money (and energy) over time. He's pretty much come over from the Dark Side to my way of thinking, but am I nuts, or does this make perfect sense? What say ye, internet???
