Before we left for Nauvoo – our TV broke (Mitsubishi WD52631) w/ a Thermister Error “TV will shut off in a few seconds. Please check to see if your air flow is blocked” . Grrr… well, we were leaving anyways – so no problem. Maybe it will fix itself while we’re gone? please oh please oh please!!!

We did attempt to clear out the surrounding vents to clear the ‘air flow’ issue, but it still shut itself off. We then searched the web and found this to be a popular error – in fact Mitsubishi has extended by 2 years the warranty on this very model and that means… FREE SERVICE REPAIR!!!! I called our local TV repair guy and he’s scheduled to come and fix (for free) our TV tomorrow morning. It’s a bummer though that we had to miss the opening ceremonies of the Olympics :( But, what can you do?… patience… We have gone out more and read more since we’ve been back, haha… when I told Clark that we are scheduled to have someone come over tomorrow afternoon he said:

Me: [On the phone] “Friday? Wow, why so long, do you have any earlier? … No? Uh…”

Clark: [Chiming in from the office] “Today! Today!”

Me: [On the phone... pleading] “Well.. we have some other repair shops who are willing to fix our TV earlier, I was hoping you guys could come over today.” (A lie, I know -but ya gotta try! ;) ) “Tomorrow? That would be great!”

Clark [Chiming in from the office] “Today! Today!”

Me: [On the phone] “Ok, between 2 & 4? Ok, we’ll see you then! Thanks!”

Clark: “Ah man, tomorrow is going to seem like a week having to watch our TV!”

Me: “HA! We’ll be fine.” (Silently I feel the same way)

Clark: “Try calling just a few more places, see if they can come over today.”

I called, we have an appointment for tomorrow at 10AM.

We’re co-dependent. *Sigh*

    Gosh, I’d be the exact same way as you! I just can’t live without that beautiful TV. :) I completely understand!

    When we moved into our house four years ago, my husband called Comcast FIRST. They came the day after our move, when our living room was full of furniture and boxes. But heck, the entertainment center was set up, and so was the TV.

    Priorities.

    I feel your pain.

    I too, feel your pain. I’m embarrassed to say the tv is practiclly always on in our house. If I’m awake it’s on. I might not even be really watching it, but it’s on.

    Oh man, you truly don’t realize what you have until you don’t have it anymore. We’re enjoying watching the Olympics now and we’re having so much fun (being more grateful) watching our TV :)
