one moon cycle

one moon cycle ago today when jacob and i decided to cross that line.

just thought i'd mention it. ^__^

last night i watched a movie (Priceless, starring that Amelie girl) and the latest Supernatural episode. while jacob tinkered with the home theaters and tried to figure out how to get rid of all the little staticky noises and other sounds that are not supposed to be there. he even bought me a quite expensive cable connector that got rid of a loud hum everytime i plugged my subwoofer in.

anyway after much experimentation and solution-seeking, it looks like i will soon need to upgrade my receiver if i want to get the best of both worlds. as i just recently discovered the joys of listening to certain kind of music on my system (such as Emi Fujita, and Pachebel's Canon), i now would want to be able to listen to music and watch movies in all their audal glory. but if want both i would either have to go through the hassling task of switching cables (because my current receiver is a second-hand unit that served me well for the past year for my movie-viewing but i never asked it to be a music expert too), or get a better unit that could do both with the flick of a remote.

i know this all sounds bluh-bluh-bluh but the point is, i don't want to compromise on my 5.1. theater experience nor do i want to give up the newly-discovered music listening option.

so there's this pretty nice unit on sale (70% off). a couple of years ago i would have spent the same amount it costs on a couple of original PS3 games. so i guess this is not a bad purchase to make.

this whole home theater project was the tipping point a year ago of my jacob story.

and now it looks like it's gearing up for a new evolving chapter.
