Positivity 4
1 - Missy and I watched the Agents of SHIELD premiere last night. We were pretty underwhelmed, to be honest, so that isn't actually the positive thing. After it ended, Missy asked, "Didn't we just get the new episode of Doctor Who? Let's watch that now!" (We get the new episodes through Nook Video, and they become available on Tuesdays.) So we did, and it was WONDERFUL.
2 - It's now two months since we cut our cable. Two months of our former cable bill is enough to cover the cost of the new equipment that made it possible (a digital antenna and a Roku streaming stick), with something left over for the content that we still have to pay for (new episodes of Doctor Who), and leaves something over for faster internet service. Starting with next month, we'll officially be ahead! And dear heavens I loooove it! Just flipping off the cable companies makes me smirk.
3 - This evening after dinner, I sat and worked on new LOLMacs while Missy read to me. She reads wonderfully, and she'd been saving an Avengers fic by scifigrl47 that I hadn't read. Oh, domestic bliss of the deliciously fannish variety! I'll get several evenings of this particular happy flavour, since it's a longish fic.
Bonus #4 - Along with the Roku stick, we got the following freebies: two free months of Hulu Plus (has ads, boo), one free month of Netflix (no ads! yay!!), and a credit at Movies to Go that we've only just now using up. And I found out that I can watch MacGyver on Netflix on my iPad, which is so insanely fine that I have no words. Is this really my life?
