My vow to stop watching television...can it be done?

[gevo]

Just a few minutes ago I was sitting on the couch watch TV enjoying my Sunday. What I was watching was interrupted by a commercial, and 20 seconds into the commercials I realized I have no freakin clue what show I was watching. If it were a sporting event I would remember, so I assume it was a show or a movie or something.

I’m super busy during the week but if I can stop watching TV on weekends I would get a lot more done in my estimation. SO ! Much like the Seinfeld episode about being “master of your domain”, I’m vowing to stop watching television.

I think I’ll last a week or maybe even two…. If it was up to me I would just sell all the television sets, but that wouldn’t be a true test of willpower now would it.

for the last 2 years or so.. i havent watched any tv.. only rented/purchased movies.. its all crap.. even the news.

its not hard at all... i stopped and i hardly miss it... i watch movies that i rent and i go to the theatre but thats not the same... it wasnt hard, i am too busy anyway... i read enough news online...

now when i catch a bit of it, i think to myself that these people are INSANE! what are they talking about, they just repeat each other... and its the same theme if it isnt the exact same thing...

like all those real life based shows, or the day time shows that the girl catches her true love in bed with someone else or how britney's boobs have changed sizes (misteriously) I DONT CARE! did you know that there are people starving, dieing, etc... NO! because britney's boobs are more important...

SOOO you will not miss TV! trust me...
