Oh Boy, Tannoy!

Today at 6am -- just as I had finished making my tea and brushing my teeth -- I got a glorious phone call: school was delayed for two hours. I immediately climbed back into my warm bed and slept for another hour. GLORIOUS. Once I did get to school, my kids were in great moods and everything went really well.

When I got home today, I was introduced to another member of our family:


Tannoy meets The Cheat.


Yes. It is a new speaker. We actually have six others (including one obscenely huge subwoofer) for a complete surround sound experience! It was a gift from Jamie's dad (acoustic engineer extraordinaire) who was passing along the complimentary goods. This complimentary good is worth a whole lot and is greatly appreciated by we music (Jamie) and DVD (me) lovers over here in Greenbelt. Between the speakers and cat, Jamie is as giddy as a little schoolgirl these days.

The Cheat was actually a brilliant Christmas gift from the brother. It actually makes different noises when you kick it. In all honesty, it's hilarious and never grows old. Ever. (Thanks, D!)

Wow, this post has been somewhat ADHD.
