We finally have reception.
I don't know if you can fully understand how utterly freaking fantastic that little thing is.
Our television is finally receiving clear pictures.
Once upon a time we got clear reception. That was way back in our Pay TV days. Back when it was analogue. Back when we could afford it. Then Foxtel changed its service to digital and hiked its price up. We decided to get ADSL internet instead and bought a set of rabbit ears for on top of the television (not only do our drains not work but the roof-top antenna has never worked either. We live under such third world conditions). Since then everything has been very fuzzy and vague. Which is fine if you're drinking, but not so fine under any other circumstances.
I bought a cheap digital set-top box online a few weeks ago, thinking that if nothing else we might be able to get clear digital TV. I wasn't going to get my hopes up because the digital set-top box would still be plugged into the rabbit-ears which may not have been up to the task. Hello pleasant surprise! Not only do we get the digital channels, the normal free-to-air channels are coming in as clear as a bell too! (Except Channel 31, which wouldn't bother me except a friend of ours is in one of the TV shows on that channel.)
Woo hoo! I'm off to watch telly now. If only there was something on worth watching....
What are your top five break-up songs?

I've only got one.
When you've got a song like this you don't need any more break-up songs. ;-)
I'm alive. Just to let you all know that.
I've strained the muscles in my back so I haven't been able to sit at the computer much (too much time sitting in a bad position on a bad chair is what injured my back in the first place). But don't worry. You haven't missed anything exciting. I lead an amazingly boring life after all.
