TV

Brandon & I decided to cut out our cable, so we'll only have the regular 12 channels. 5 years ago that wouldn't have been an option in our minds. We lived way better in college than we do now. in Brandon's bachelor pad, he had surround sound, huge screen, tons of music, tons of movies, all the channels, lots of couches. I also had a great set up at my house but not as good as his. Our parents were so extremely generous to pay for all our college tuition and board if we would just do well in school. So we both worked, just to have fun money. But those times are long gone :)

We have a ton of reasons for doing this - but one of them is that our providers TV package when up in price AGAIN. So we cut out everything except those 12 channels and we joined NetFlix for $5 a month. We are just going to get movies through there and watch them instead of whatever junk we flipped past on TV.

My idea is that we watch EVERY Movie of the Year Academy Award Winner from the 1920's and on.... which will take us forever since we really only sit and watch TV/movies together 2 nights a week. But, I haven't totally convinced Brandon of that yet.

BUT there are some cute movies that we watched recently I wanted to promote

Enchanted - I loved it! I love Disney so much. Literally I have been talking to Brandon about how they need to make a cartoon into a real life for years and they finally did it! I actually wanted them to do the exact same scenes and everything as Cinderella but just do real life characters - but Enchanted was awesome too! I can so relate to this character :)

Bee Movie - another cute one

Cars - Raymond's favorite movie EVER. He calls it, "trucks". and I LOVE it too. One of my top 10 movies ever actually! I don't think I would have loved it so much except that I have experienced the south now - so I totally "get" the different characters. Mater cracks me up --- I meet real life Maters all the time hehe :) we are always doing impersonations and lines from this movie around the house haha

So anyway, there's an idea for anybody wanting to have an extra $100 a month!
