Another Silver Lining
Today, the DirecTV people were supposed to come and install the equipment so we could keep their services.
But according to our lease, we need written permission from the landlord before we install any kind of satellite dish.
And the landlord still hasn`t answered any of my emails. In fact, I`m beginning to wonder if they`re traveling? The guy mentioned that he`d just quit his job to be closer to his wife and daughter during the week (he`d been commuting to Fresno just on weekends, which sounded tough), so perhaps, with their San Francisco house now rented, they used the opportunity to take some time away? Who knows.
Anyway, just in case they`re still fuming over the birds, I told Hub I thought we should hold off on the DirecTV. I found out it`s possible to suspend our account for up to nine months.
There`s something else, too. May I just say how nice it is, that my kids have no TV shows to watch? They`ve been watching mostly Japanese videos instead.
Give me Doraemon over CartoonNetwork any day.

We need permission for it here too. I never bothered; just went with Comcast.
We need permission here too. We have comcast and I love it. Way better then my parents direct tv. I LOVE how we get movies on Comcast on Demand the same day they are released on dvd too. We watched The Prestige this weekend :)
You SO need to put a disclaimer on the link to the Doraemon site. I thought, 'Hmmm...what is that?' and clicked over, only to be literally blasted out of my chair by the beginning of whatever song started to play. My heart jumped out of my chest, and I made a coworker look up. Sheesh.
