I finally have a TV in my room again! It's been over a year since I last had one in here, possibly two, and my DVD collection hasn't stopped growing in the interim. Unfortunately, my opportunities/motivation to watch DVDs only shrank without a convenient viewing apparatus in my room, as otherwise I have to camp out in the kitchen (inconvenient for viewing, since I usually sit at a ninety degree angle to the screen) or the living room (usually staked out by my parents, primarily my dad, and with a DVD player I haven't bothered to learn the ins and outs of).
I found my new TV at a secondhand store months after giving up on finding one with a built-in DVD player - I'd checked all the local secondhand stores as well as Target and Best Buy (including their websites) with no luck. I'd rejected my laptop as relatively inconvenient, since I usually like to hold my crafting supplies in my lap, and none of the portable DVD players were any more appealing to me, having much smaller screens than my laptop. I'm still somewhat amazed that I finally managed to find one, and that it wasn't outrageously expensive.
Anyway, with my new TV, I should be making progress on my various crafting projects as well as my extensive DVD collection. ...Though I am taking a brief detour to watch something I've already seen once before I start anything new. I guess we'll see after that!
