...so i was thinking recently...

ok. wow. so as i was posting my last entry about telletubbies my roommate came home. and guess what she was singing. no, not telletubbies. but close haha she was singing arthur. y'know the cartoon little aardvark character with glasses? y'know i never knew he was an aardvark until i googled it a few years back. i always thought he was a mouse with tiny ears. but turns out he's an aardvark because it sounds better to say "arthur the aardvark" than "arthur the mouse with tiny ears." anyway, that was a random tangent but what i was getting at was this: wait i think i need to backtrack real quick.

so the first month of this sememster we didn't have a working tv. well actually we had two, but neither was really working per se. one tv played dvds only. and the other was connected to the cable...but only got like four channels with terribly fuzzy connection and so really we never watched tv. both were like those old looking wooden panneled tv, super deep and wide and heavy...we didnt have anywhere to put either, so our front room was pretty empty, but it was nice. then about a month ago, we found a random wooden entertainment set just up the street sitting on someones lawn. so we took it. and then one of our roommates borrowed a tv. and then we had three different guys try to fix the cable connection. so finally we have somewhat decent cable channels and needless to say the tv is on more than before. i am proud to say that still it's hardly ever on, but i guess that's still more than before haha

anyway, the other night my roommate and i were cooking dinner or something, and the tv was on. and we ended up settling down to watch arthur on pbs. it felt like i had just ridden the bus home from third grade. it was awesome. ever since then we've randomly been bursting out into the arthur theme song. surprising enough we know all the words to this one too. which i will say is more impressive, because there are quite a bit more words to this than the telletubbies.


ps--i just wanted to note that the entertainment set was FREE we didn't steal it. we had permission to just walk off with it. just sayin'
