I thought the dishwasher was a little louder than normal. Then I opened the basement door.
Luckily I was able to fix the problem with a $1.16 brick from Home Depot.
Due to snow, they might cancel the bike portion of the duathlon I’m doing on Saturday. Gotta love spring in Michigan.

March Madness is the best tournament in sports. Playing for school pride and love of the game. Instant chills during #OneShiningMoment.

It’s that time of year again… installing the Masters app on my iPhone.
I’ve been using a 50″ Sony Grand WEGA LCD TV for over 9 years. It’s been a great TV and I didn’t have any problems with it until last November when the bulb finally blew out. My Mom keeps mentioning how they’ll wait for a TV upgrade of their own (they’re still using the hand-me-down I passed along when I got this Sony) until I was ready to get rid of mine. All you have to do is plant the idea in my head. 🙂

Over the years, I had accumulated quite the tangled mess of cables behind the entertainment system. They may have been a family of beavers living in there at some point.

Breaking down your entire entertainment system and assembling a new TV stand on Saturday night of the Final Four isn’t the greatest idea. I watched the Michigan game like this, streaming on my laptop.
After setting everything up, I still have somewhat of a cabled mess, but it’s much more organized (right?).
By upgrading to the newer Apple TV and using HDMI for most of my connections, I was able to eliminate all of this stuff.
After being up late last night, I moved games, DVDs, controllers, and other stuff in this morning and finished everything up.

I went with a 55 inch Hitachi (model LE55W806) from Sam’s Club and a TV stand from Target. I’m going to enjoy this!
I had this Sony TV for over 9 years. It was time for an upgrade. Pictures to come after the stand is assembled and everything is set.
It was nice having the day off work and no Internet connection at home yet for April Fools’ Day.
