The sad, sad story of my life...

Did I tell you that my free cable is ... well, no longer free? (My apartment complex has been absorbing the cost of cable for the last 4 years, but they decided to stop paying for it in 2010 - as of yesterday.) Which means that I no longer have cable.

No more Tuesday marathons of Law & Order SVU on USA. No more trashy Lifetime movies. No more Hawkeye at 10:00 PM.

It's a tragedy.

And the worst part is, now that my cable's been turned off... I'm gonna have to go out and buy some bunny ears so I can watch TV again. And those are for the TV that's new enough that I can get antenna reception on it. (The TV in my bedroom's new enough that bunny ears'll make it work. The TV in my living room, however, is circa 1997 and is now dead to the world, save the DVD/VHS player that's attached to it. Good thing I have these 300 movies I can watch on it, eh?)

Last night was the most miserable, lonely night of my life. I had to force myself to fall asleep sans the background music and sounds of M*A*S*H. It was awful, I tell you. Just awful. I miss Mr. Benjamin Franklin Pierce. Fiercely.

When they told me I'd be losing my free cable, I toyed with the idea of paying for it... for a while. But in reality, I watch most of my shows on hulu anyway, and I didn't really want to pay for TV ... so I didn't think it was such a big deal to just let it lapse. I'd forgotten that I need something other than the sound of silence to fall asleep to. This weekend I need to either pick myself up some bunny ears, or a dvd player for my bedroom tv (so I can fall asleep to You've Got Mail and/or Ocean's 11 - because everyone knows those are the two best movies to go to sleep to).

Just one question - can anyone tell me where I can buy bunny ears? (Walmart? Radio Shack?) I have no clue!
