I don't need a life, I have a TV.

I bought us Christian a wireless adapter for the Xbox for his birthday in January. This means that he can stream all of my his downloaded content through the TV. It's fantastic.

I now have all 10 seasons of Beverly Hills 90210. (Shut up!) Christian also has a bunch of his crappy movies and shows too.

We've been downloading a lot of movies as well. We could probably cancel the cable, and I would never have to watch hockey again save money!

(Just kidding honey, I love hockey.........)

(**Especially when you cheer really loudly and scare me and the dog into hiding.)


I have been trying to come up with a list of movies for Vance as well. I was really excited last week when I noticed there was a new Disney movie out. It's called "The Secret of the Magic Gourd" So I found the torrent and downloaded it. The next night, Vance and I got all cozy on the couch and began watching the movie. I thought it seemed a little weird at first when most of the speaking was in Chinese, but then I thought, "Forget this creepy living pumpkin thingy, what's up with all the Chinese people?" I left Vance to go and research what I had done. Turns out the movie was made in 2007 by Disney and some Chinese company. It was just released, last week, with the English dubbed over. Oops. So I had downloaded the original Chinese version. (Ok, so I might be new at this whole bit torrent crap!) It was too late though because he was already right into it. He said "It's ok Mom, I never get to watch Chinese movies." So, I went to sleep sucked it up and we sat and watched the whole movie in Chinese. At one point he said to me "Mom, I think Christian should watch this with us, because he probably knows what they are saying." That was pretty cute. He knows Christian speaks French, so he thought that he could speak Chinese too.

(**Sometimes Christian actually thinks he can speak Chinese, but that's only after he's consumed rum.)

Got have any movie suggestions for us?
