Easter Update
So this weekend I stayed at home on Friday and waited for the new projector to arrive because I had to sign for it. All I have to say is, wow. You know those big $5,000 TVs at Best Buy. Let's just say that a HDTV Projector can put it to shame and it was under $1000. I can see why Best Buy doesn't highlight them, they would overtake all of the LCD and plasma tvs they own. I am no longer trapped in the dark like I used to be. With my old one I got blackout shades for the living room and had to basically turn out all of the lights for it to work. With this new projector it is extraordinarily bright. I can keep lights on. The TV can get so bright that the room will fill with light when it is set on max. The colors are so bright it is weird seeing how colorful every image is. The HDTV signal makes HD stations seems lifelike. The wierd thing about the brightness is that it is registered as the same lumens as my last projector at 2000 lumens. But the contrast must make up for it because this has 6000:1 contrast ratio as opposed to 2000:1 from my last projector. All in all, the best buy for the buck. I am happy with this purchase and can't wait to see more high def movies on it.
Friday night was my sleep study. The doc wants to adjust my CPAP pressure since I have gained some wieght. BTW, now that I got the TV back in the living room I will continue with my Lost/Treadmill workout. I was on haitus for a week. Anyways, I go to the sleep place. This time they let me come in at 11PM. I am glad because I just can't fall asleep at 10PM, like my last sleep study. So the lady hooks up 21 electrodes to my body. They get put on my feet to test for RLS, my hair and near my eyes and all over my chest. You want to talk about a little uncomfortable, try sleeping like that. So anyways I probably fall asleep at 1AM. The sleep lady comes in during the night to adjust the mask as it was leaking. She wants me to wear a mask instead of my nose thing. Yeah right. Good luck with that. So I get home at 6:30AM and go to sleep. Then I wake up to go Wichita Falls.
So this Saturday and Sunday I spent around 8 hours in the car. 2 to Wichita Falls, 2 coming back on Saturday and then 2 back to Wichita and 2 coming back on Sunday. Saturday night we watch mom shows. I think CBS has some kind of old person subsconscious messages that keep them watching that channel. We took mom and Holly's mom to church on Sunday. It was good, although because mom gets a wheelchair we had to grab chairs from outside the place to sit by her. It was a chore. I took mom and Holly's mom to Rafian's afterwords. That is my favorite restaurant of all time. The one waiter recognizes me since I was there just a couple of weeks ago. It was good. Anyways, we finish Sunday with driving. I am now tired and it is only Monday. I need a vacation already. How was your weekend?

Our weekend was pretty much the usual. On Saturday, we ran a lot of errands and did our weekly shopping. On Saturday night, I got this strange urge to watch Young Guns...so I did. Our daughter woke us up on Sunday morning because the Easter Bunny had come for a visit. The wife made a big turkey dinner, since I'm not a big fan of ham. I spent most of the day watching Smallville and the wife watched Survivor.
