Silence is Golden.

After a lot of blood, sweat and tears, (and a vow to only buy furniture that comes put together from now on) we finally got the console table put together. I've come to the conclusion that I actually think there are people who work in factories and their only job is to drill holes that don't exactly line up so that people will actually go crazy when putting things together. Ugh.

We finished putting the table together around 8:00pm and Dave's eyes lit up because he was finally going to be able to pull his new baby out of the box. In his defense, he has been VERY patient seeing as how we've had this TV for a month now.

Here he is doing the honors....

And here is the "masterpiece". Yay for the TV....and hopefully one day I will get over my bitterness towards that so-called TV stand. **As a side note: My HUGE armoire took up a lot of wall space and a lot of room space. This is so slender and takes up so much less wall space. I am really happy about that, but now the room looks SO boring. Any suggestions for the area to the left and the right of the TV? I have no where to put my pictures an "stuff" to make the room cozy/homey. That's my next project.

Back to last night...We ordered a pizza so that Dave could watch the Mavs/Nuggets and the Rangers on his new 46", and we were thrilled to be having dinner at 8:45 at the kitchen table instead of 9:45 in our bed like the night before. But we encountered a slight problem when we realized there was no sound....

Apparently you need a separate cable for that......Of course. I'm not sure I had envisioned this being an all week project. In fact I'm CERTAIN I hadn't. At least we got to watch the Mav's get schooled in silence. I guess there's always next year...
