While we were partying last night, my DVR failed to record the 2 hour premiere of Chuck. This is displeasing. I was hoping it would repeat but that doesn't look likely. I know I can just watch it online but Chuck is one of the shows we watch as a family. I'm wondering if anyone slightly more tech savvy than myself could be of use.
A few months back I bought one of those cables that allows me to use my tv as basically a second computer monitor. I've only tested it once (it's fabulous OMG) but sadly the sound still comes from my crappy laptop speakers. Does anyone know how I might be able to get the sound to come from the tv as well as the picture? Any help or a point in the right direction would be hugely appreciated. I'd love to be able to watch the missed episodes all together if I can manage it.
I spent the evening catching up on Fringe. I forgot how disgusting that show can be. It's awesome! I wish I could work in their props department just to see how gross their imaginations can get. Also, I think I've finally gotten over the shudder inducing feeling I used to get from Joshua Jackson. Residual heeby jeebs from Dawson's Creek seem to be fading. Go figure, 4 foot parasitic worm = cool. Van der Beek associations = me running screaming from the room. A fascinating look into my psyche folks.
Hopefully we'll manage to plug through the 9 episodes of Heroes clogging up the DVR by the week's end. We've got a lot of tv to catch up on.
I'd like to end my post with a grateful acknowledgment to the good Samaritan who works at our local craft store who let me use the employee restroom in my time of need. You were a life saver. I thank you kindly. I wish more people would be so nice. It's the little things that count folks. And with that, I bid you goodnight LJ land.
