Honestly, I spend most of my time on the internet, my laptop sits on my coffee table and is always on.

But I usually have the tube on in the background. There are still a couple decent shows.

I watched the season opener for Boardwalk Empire. OK! And the last Breaking Bad was terrific. Too bad that new Dinasaur show is not on demand. I have no way to record stuff.

That's fine. I got sick of it. Actually, I had a two week outage with my dish, and it was an epiphany. I almost didn't want them to fix it! They did, but a while later, I cancelled it.

I love the net, and nowadays, there are options. I have a roku box for streaming movies from netflix etc if I want. I am so busy that most of my available downtime is here on my laptop. When I had tv, I kept surfing for movies. Now I have movies galore, more than I have time for.

I feel like when I was a kid, I squandered a lifetime's worth of time on TV. I'm going on 44 yrs old, and I feel the movement of time more than I once did. I just don't want to waste time if I can help it.

When I lay dying, will I think to myself, "I wish I'd watched more TV?"
