Looks like we'll be repairing instead of replacing.

Today we stopped at several appliance stores and we have come to the conclusion that we are better off repairing our current fridge by replacing the compressor. We tried to find one that had the options we currently have and it turns out none of the current models have them. And all the new bells and whistles don't appeal to us.

That means we will be calling the repair guy to start the ball rolling. It'll be a week before one of us is available to be home for the repair so until it's fixed, I'm guessing we'll be dining out a lot or rummaging through the downstairs freezer looking for microwavable meals.

Fortunately, I like chicken pot pies....

The Red Sox played at 1:00 this afternoon and they managed to clinch the ALEast when they beat the Astros 6-3.

This means their last game is at 3:00 tomorrow against the Astros and then they are off until Thursday when they will.....

....play the Astros in game one of the ALDS.

Thanks goodness they have a few days off because they look pretty worn down and the injuries need time to heal.

I'm going to find some decent take-out for dinner (we're thinking gyros) and then watch some DVRs.

While I do that, you should try these out:

• Key phrase in this story: "People lose a lot of things, you know."



• How do you not see the ocean? It's kinda big.



• Australia: What doesn't kill ya wants to have sex with you.



• In the futuristic movie Demolition Man, Taco Bell was the only restaurant left in the world and it was considered fine dinning.



• Key phrase in this story: "I don’t remember a whole lot about what happened."
