Good things

Sometimes I feel like my life is a cavalcade of screw ups and bad things. Sure some things go well, but there's always a steady stream of things going on that make me unhappy, or at least try my patience a little. Well, this weekend I finally got something done that not only has nothing but positive implications, but lead to other even more positive things! Let's start with the big news, pun intended.

My old TV is gone, and I didn't have to touch the fucker! A friend who initially wasn't going to take the TV, changed his mind, found a new entertainment center, and took that bastard out of my house! No fingers were lost in the process of it getting to where it was going. Now my friend has a TV that does all the colors rather than just green and occasionally blue. Good for them.

With that thing gone, I started to re-org my house by putting my new TV on the entertainment center. Realizing I had some more to do, I ended up cleaning, dusting, re-wiring, throwing out a bunch of stuff that I realized was useless, and playing with my new TV. Now I have everything attached to that TV, including my PC! Videos on YouTube are somehow cooler when they're a couple feet wide. And, with my PC moved, I now have a much more open downstairs once again. This makes me happy.

There's still things wrong in my house, stuff I'm not sure what to do with or how to deal with, but for the moment my success in finally getting my living room in order is all that really matters. And my new TV rules. :)
