#20 Get some sort of organizer for my remotes
I forgot I did this already - I went to Target after Easter to check out the clearance stuff, and I snagged an awesome Batman Easter basket for $5 that works perfectly for holding my remotes.
#57 - Fix my receiver/stereo situation so that it works right
My stereo situation was never really set up right when I bought a receiver a few years ago, and I realized a few months ago that my CD player was only playing through one speaker, even though my DVD player would play through both. So I overhauled my setup, decided to stop using the 2nd TV since I haven't really "needed" both of them at once in a long time, if ever. So I set it up right, and decided to not even bother with surround sound and just use my two main big speakers, and I ran everything through the receiver. It'll be annoying without a receiver remote for now, but I love it. It looks better too.
#91 - Get at least 360 new songs (18/360)
I bought the new Green Day CD after seeing them on SNL last weekend. All I can say is I love Green Day. I've never really thought of them as one of my favorite top 5 bands or anything, but they continue to make amazing CD's that I always love. There's so many good songs on here, but "Horshoes and Handgrenades" is the best song I've heard in a long time. Granted, part of me loves it purely because of the song title because I remember hearing the saying, "close only counts in horshoes and hand grenades" as a kid, I think from my dad.
My dad used to tell me the same thing!
ReplyDeleteYeah...I think it's an old guy thing. I think my dad used to say "close only counts in horshoes, hand grenades and ballroom dancing" though, but I later found out that nobody else said "ballroom dancing" in that saying.
ReplyDeletelol, that sounds like your dad. My dad used to compare dancing to driving in the snow.
