High Def

Yay for tax returns! Luke and I took Owen out today for some shopping and we ordered a new bed (wicked antique-looking sleigh-style) and Luke purchased his highly anticipated Playstation 3. I was going to surprise him with it for Father's Day, but he just wouldn't take my hints to drop it, so I had to cave. He felt guilty for ruining my surprise so I got to milk that a little... heehee

So we watched our 1st High-Definition movie tonight! It's just a shame we wasted it on Resident Evil: Extinction... (the Blu-Ray selection at Blockbuster is lacking). Still we totally noticed the difference, and even laughed when we switched back over to regular tv afterwards and noticed how fuzzy things looked! My sister came to visit a few weeks ago and commented on how funny our tv looks, because it's widescreen but we don't have the high-def connection, so everything's stretched out. I told her that I didn't notice it (and shamefully that's the truth, I really thought it looked normal!), and she was so baffled that I couldn't see how short and wide everything was. I think her exact words were "see how that tire isn't round?!"  Well, Shan, the tires are now round. Are you proud?

Off to bed now - the child slept straight through until 5:30 last night, so here's hoping for a repeat!!
