OMG! My bf gave me my birthday present!
It's a gorgeous 40" Samsung LCD TV.


It's the same exact TV he's drooled over for months. The TV I kept saying "honey, we don't need it... we already have two nice TVs."

But god bless him, my objections weren't important.

Oh, and he got a PlayStation3 too. Cuz, ya know... if you have the TV...

:rofl:


Actually, he never buys himself stuff, so I'm glad I can be used an excuse. He deserves it.

2. So I'm assuming you no longer need to worry about the Blu-ray quality? :-)

3. turns out he has 3 HDMI cables on order
and some sort of weird mounting stand.

This is his dream system, but he justifies it using me.

7. Make sure he's not paying some outrageous amount for those cables. They sell them for 100 bucks at
places like Best Buy and you can easily get them for around 10 bucks. They mark them up like no one's business. Let me know if you need a source.

10. He paid
yeah, it's insane. Monster is charging $60 for the same cable. He paid $2.88 via Amazon.

9. You deserved it! I was worried that you might be a little down after some
of the snark you got last night!

11. nah
I'm thrilled he's getting the AV stuff he loves.

He took me out on a 2-hour sail on Monterey Bay today on the Chardonnay:

We had sushi and sake and gorgeous weather. My back has been so bad for the last 4 months that it was a real treat for me to get out and enjoy California.
