We had a power cut toward the end of last week. The power went off without warning – I presume someone ran into a power pole or something blew. The next day our DVD recorder didn’t work, followed swiftly by our video player. On Saturday night Mr. Munro and I were watching TV and it went poof with one loud bang. Then, there was this horrid smell. I’m glad we were both there when it went poof because the smell was indicative of fire. I’m presuming all this is linked to the power cut and there was a surge or something. Luckily we have a small portable so we could continue to watch TV.
I like watching TV. I sit in my chair with my laptop and multi-task (watch TV, write, and talk to Mr. Munro and the dog). Life is very strange without TV. For some reason all my favorite programs are on the same night, at the same time. Tonight I have to make decisions since I don’t have a recorder to tape anything. Should I watch Brothers & Sisters or should I watch The Unit, which starts again tonight? The same dilemma will occur on Tuesday, so I’m hoping the repair shop works at top speed.
Do you watch TV? Which TV shows would you hate to miss?
I’m busy working on final edits. Almost done, and then I’ll be straight into packing. Everything is laid out on the spare bed. Mr. Munro is already packed. He’s so efficient he scares me. I need to spend time on my pitch, too. Maybe I can do that during the plane trip? Is your pitch done?
