Well, people, we did it. Chris' parents gave us a TV, and we bought a DVD player, and now it's all sitting in the closet... but we are using it to watch movies. I just spent like an hour adding DVDs to my Amazon.com Wishlist, and those are just the bare bones of our future collection! Seriously, though, the world of DVD seems pretty addictive, and since we've been deprived of movies at home for so long, well, it's just frightening. My first DVD purchase was made tonight - The Big Lebowski, bien sur.
Still, the TV will be kept in the closet, and we have no reception even of network stations in our apartment without cable or an antenna. So don't expect Chris and I to understand your pop culture references just because we are now television owners. I prefer to think of the whole setup as "the movie machine." Yes. That's right.
