Ah, Super Tuesday. The polisci geek's Super Bowl.
But part of my decision to buy my house meant a very conscious and strict budget. And kicking out the slacker boyfriend shortly after moving in meant that money got even tighter. By my calculations, I have a disposable income of about $11 a month.
I've never paid for cable - my most recent apartment was possibly the last surviving incidence of native RCN in the city of Chicago - and am somewhat proud of that silly distinction. Sure, I could argue that I have better things to do than watch TV. That's especially true in the summer, when I spend hours on my bike or puttering in the yard, but this time of year, mindless, easy TV calls me. And sometimes, I miss HGTV or the Colbert Report or the plethora of reruns.
And tonight, as the slush plops down and I follow election returns online, man, I wish I had cable.

Yeah! Crysta has a blog! We are tight budgeters too, no room for cable. We were refreshing the computer screen though. And it was fun. Have the primaries ever been this exciting before? :)
