   The beginning of Woofer's Reign...
I have a strange confession. (Hope you all had a wonderful holiday, by the way) I name my appliances. Yep. Strange, huh?

It started with my first object of electronica: my VCR. It's a $$30 piece o' junk, but I love it because it lets me watch videos. Occasionally. If it doesn't eat them first...

It does that alarmingly often of late. It has eaten the end of Fellowship of the Ring, and the beginning of The Two Towers, as well as almost devouring Thrush's copy of It's a Wonderful Life. The VCR is named Demon.

Then, my wonderful parents bought me a computer for my birthday. Now, I think almost anyone will admit to naming their computers, right? I have a friend who's boyfriend named his computer Indigo Bob, I know Mamma Vash's last computer was named Chester...I'm fairly sure other people have named their computers too. So I named mine Pewter, due to it's color (greyish-silver), and the fact that Pewter and the end of computer sound the same and..oh, never mind. So we then have Pewter the Cyber Duck.

Pewter happens to have a printer. The printer has the honor of having the weirdest name: Cuteness.

Yep. It's not cute at all. It's a Lexmark line printer that...well...let's just say I'm dreading term papers. It takes forEVER to print. In my family, 90% of the time, when you say "Oh, that's cute" it's sarcasm. Therefore...well, you've got it figured out, I'm sure.

Then came the Gameboy. My dad actually named that...he started saying I was acting like Gollum when I first got it...the Gameboy has now been named "Precious".

So now we come to the point ogf this post: my latest addition already has a name...my parent got Pewter new speakers...complete with a subwoofer. It's so loud, you can hear it 4 houses down if I turn it up all the way. And that's with the windows closed.

Appliances? Meet Woofer...



P.s....don't ask me why i did this...i'm just really tired...need sleep...zzzzzzzz
