TV Has Taken Over My Life!

When thinking of today's post, I kept coming up with TV shows and I wanted to get it done before the season premiers of Desperate Housewives and Brothers and Sisters. I realized that my day at home revolves around what is on TV. I don't read any more. I rarely listen to music. I don't study for my exam and I can barely get job stuff done at home. Honestly, I've never really been that productive at home but I haven't watched this much TV in a while. I think it is because I have a television in my bedroom.

In my apartment, my bedroom was reserved for sleeping and reading. There was an occasional late night movie on the laptop or lazy morning internet browsing but I didn't watch TV, pay bills, do work, etc. in my bedroom. Now almost everything I do occurs in my bedroom - TV, bills, job searching, eating, etc. There seems to be no time for reading because I'm looking for random stuff on TV or reaching for my macbook. Sleep only comes when I'm dead tired. I've got to make some changes before my brain turns to mush.

I want to put down the remote but Wife Swap, Law & Order (all 3 of them), Bridezillas, RHOA, Project Runway, Police Women of Broward County, Amazing Wedding Cakes, and True Life keep calling my name.

Television is an invention that permits you to be entertained in your (bed) room by people you wouldn't have in your home. ~David Frost
