Thought of the day
Filed under: General — nobrainer @ 10:17 pm

This morning I was doing some yard work, as I’ve done every morning this week. Today was quite a bit more enjoyable than the other days because it wasn’t ungodly hot at 7AM — it was actually quite pleasant — and because I remember to put on some bug repellent. As I worked, I thought to a conversation I had with my roommate the night before. She said that she was the only person she know who had a guy roommate who did not have a flat panel TV. In an attempt to justify this to myself, I thought, “retirement comes first.” It seems backwards, but the better I prepare now for retirement later, the better and sooner my retirement will be. So I’m sticking with my thought: retirement comes first.

Kudos to you. I didn’t get a flat panel until I had my own place. They continue to fall in price as 1080 becoems more prevalent. I’ve neved been a first adopter of tech products. Wish I could figure out how much money it has saved me. Or at least provided me the abilit to spend on other things that I enjoy as much or more than a little better audio quality or a little sharper picture that maybe gets a few hours a week of attention…ala season football tickets.
