#5: Save more money

I didn't upgrade the cable, decided to make do with what I had. BUT, I am desperately missing OnDemand and HBO. I did find a solution, however. iTunes and the networks offer many free downloads of shows I watch (or eventually will!) and I can get them all through my computer. I ahve to pay for Entourage but it's $20 a season and that's better than $100 a month.

Then, because I'm wicked smart, I asked the IT guy for the cables I need to hook it all up--and he hooked me up! Saved me about $42 and I can use the TV as a bigger monitor while working from home too.

Yay for me! Did something right today. Nothing is impossible.
