We have a very small front living room. It hosts the computer desk, a couple of bookshelves and two overstuffed chairs. I like to refer to it as the library, since it's the perfect place to cozy up and read a book.
Some of you may not know, but we have always been rabbit ear people. Antenna. You know... the absence of cable, dish or satellite TV. I know. Some people these days *still* do not have modern TV. We have paid for cable about 3 months of our entire marriage (12 years). One or two apartments that we lived in offered free cable, so we did have it for a couple of years. Cable is just one of those monthly bills that we can do without. Sure, I miss TLC and HGTV and all of the awesome kid channels. However, most of the time, we really don't miss it. In this day & age, we've been able to watch quite a few shows for free on the internet or by checking TV series out from the library. We are typically a season behind, but we can watch our TV almost commercial free. But, I digress...
For Christmas, Tommie received new speakers for his computer with the intent to drastically improve the sound quality when we watch TV or movies on his computer. Tonight began the next season of LOST on "real" TV. We started watching LOST last summer on DVD and are hooked. We are one season behind, so we sat down this evening in our cozy library with our new surround sound speakers to watch the beginning of our new season on our (15 inch) "TV".
