cable free in 93'
the title is what it is because "cable free in 07" doesn't sound as good.
this weekend, we went cable free and i am happy to say, i do not miss it one bit. before thomas and i were together, i actually did not own a tv.
and then thomas and i met. and dated. and moved in together, and suddenly, i was faced with having a tv. oh, the boob tube and its mind numbing effects.
we got cable a bit later. and then let the crack, coke-snorting party begin. it opened my world to dvr, which i do miss. but i could watch mtv and lifetime and cnn and pbs and the wb and disney and all sorts of other channels with perfect reception.
and now. well now. i have one wonderful netflix subscription and i am cable free. i do not feel the need to turn the tv on to nothing when i get home and mindlessly melt into the couch and become one with nothingness as my mind merges with the red, green and blue emissions. now, i actually sit down in peace and read, or watch a dvd of gilmore girls. it is amazing.
now if i could only give up bacon.
We use the cable for the internets crack more than anything. The TV is off, but streaming radio is on.
And sometimes we watch the Food Network and Comedy Central and that damn CSI show.
What a gorgeous picture of you! And is that potato salad? It is widely known that I would trade cable, a dollar and three bouncy balls for a bowl of good potato salad.
I'm so jealous! I would love to do that but there's no way I could get my husband to give up watching the Red Sox.
hey lulu, i refer to that bowl of potato salad as potato crack for a reason. it is that good!
Ah.
I wish I had your fortitude.
(Said as I gleefully devour 10 Things I Hate About You on Comedy Central.)
i LOVE than movie.
