Our Newest Obsession

Remember when Thomas was going through the phase where he wanted to watch Grey's Anatomy all the time? When I got him hooked from season one?
Well, now he has a new obsession.
And I have it with him.

"How I Met Your Mother."

One word: Why?
WHY has it taken so long for this show to come into our lives??

Apparently it's been around for years!
It's just that recently everybody's been talking about it, sort of all of a sudden it seems.

So, we've started watching.

And our hooked!

It started the first day we spent home after the ER.

Laying in bed in pajamas all day, we needed something to do.

So. Naturally, we peruse Netflix in the hopes of finding something to watch and kill the day with!

And we come across "How I Met Your Mother."

And decided to watch.

And now we can't stop.

What a freakin' funny show.

Marshall? Hands down the best one on the show.

I gotta say, it actually gives "FRIENDS" a run for it's money...

We're only on season two, 

and already trying to figure things out.

Now, it's only Robin, and one other chick in the show who could possibly be the mother.

Now, you know it's not Robin, because she keeps getting referred to as "your aunt Robin", but then when the heck are they going to break up? And how?

Anywho,

it's a great show.

Gonna watch some more tonight when Thomas returns home from class.

Oh.

And speaking of that wonderful man,

he got a new job!

He's going to be a server at Old Chicago in Plymouth! 

We are very excited!

Hopefully, this means more hours and bigger bills (meaning bigger tips!)!

It's just down the road from work - which, Thomas pointed out to me today, means I can come visit him every day on my hour-long break. 

Well, I don't know about every day, but I'm sure I'll be driving down there a lot.

The apartment we checked out on Saturday were really nice.
Beautiful, actually.

A two bedroom-er at $920/mo.

Thomas is still thinking we should get a two bedroom.

He says we could make the second bedroom an office or something.

It's not a bad idea.

I just still don't really know how I feel about it...

But anyway, this place, really nice.

And privately owned, so they do a lot of communal activities and events.

But we didn't see a single soul in the buildings, aside from the people in the party room for a baby shower...

So we've got another apartment tour set-up for Saturday.

But here's the pickle:

This one-bedroom apartment is $809/mo.

To have a washer & dryer in our room, so we don't have to use the communal laundry room, increases our rent to $860/mo.

Is the convenience worth the price??

I think so.

Definitely.

Thomas on the hand??....Wellll he needs some convincing. 

He doesn't think it's worth it.

I'll need to work on him a bit more...
