DVR

Just thought you should be aware that the Focht family is moving up in the world of entertainment.

Less of this...



and more of this....




YEAH!! We finally gave in to cable. So here's the story of how this glorious miracle happened.

We were taking a leisurely stroll through the mall one evening when we popped into the AT&T store to inquire about wireless internet service. When we moved to Dayton, we were newlyweds with no money so we just found the cheapest service available and as soon as our contract was over with them, we were in the market for a better, faster internet experience. (you really do get what you pay for sometimes) Anyway, so when we walked into the store, I might have "mentioned" that we might possibly perhaps could be interested in getting cable as well as internet. Oops! Well, salesman Ryan gave us an offer we just couldn't resist that included Visa gift cards as an incentive for signing up, free installation, free dvr, free everything except for the monthly cost of AT&T U-Verse. Our package is the U-200 channel one, so we will be downgrading to a simpler package in a couple months because we just don't need all that. But my point of the story is....we are really enjoying fast forwarding through commercials and being able to record up to four shows at once for those Monday nights when we have to pick between How I Met Your Mother, Gossip Girl, The Sing Off, and currently, the baseball playoffs.




Matt is watching the Cardinals whoop up on the Brewers right now. Unfortunately, U-Verse does not have a "kick husband out and turn girly shows on" button. But I'll catch up on those after the Cardinals have won the world series and my DVR is so full it won't hold any more shows.
