07:36 pm - 8.5" Personal DVD Player
I am getting rid of my 8.5" personal DVD player. If anyone is interested, I am going to put it up for sale on Craig's List for $25 or best offer this weekend. Prior requests get preference.

01:42 pm - Saving $$$
I am very pleased! I just called Comcast and told them I wanted to cancel our service (just a ruse). The guy on the phone (Manuel) asked why and I told him because DirectTV was a much better deal. He negotiated with me until I was happy and for the next 12 months, we are saving $50 per month on our bill (HDTV, Cablemodem, HBO, Showtime, etc.). Yay for negotiating savings on your bills!

03:53 pm - Watching the movie "1408" with John Cusack
I am not a horror fan, but Iam a big John Cusack fan. I just had to take a break from the movie for a 'breather'. It is very creepy!

All:
After 2.75 days being vagabonds, we are now back home, in a much warmer house! Yay for DTE getting the power back up and running!

01:54 pm - Day 3
Hey everyone,
It is day 3 here and we still have no power. We spent last night at the Sheraton again, and today went to the house and started going through both refridgerators and the deep freeze. The freezers were no longer frozen and the fridges were actually warmer than the house. (scary that) We dumped a ton of bad food and are again making the most of the hospitality of matvey, which I am afraid we are pushing to its limit. Hopefully we will be back in the house by tomorrow. Matvey says he saw that DTE was hoping to have all homes and businesses back up and functional by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. We shall see.
