Over to the dark side June 20, 2007
Our pay TV was installed today. We are no longer in the apparent minority still watching free-to-air only.
I know Mark wasn’t exactly thrilled that I organised it (as is his prerogative) but having a broader range of TV to watch while feeding Leila - even if it’s just a broader range of crappy TV - is going to do wonders for my sanity. I have a movie that I’ve been wanting to see recording at the moment and I’ll watch it during feeds over the next couple of days before it expires.
I don’t intend to spend any more time in front of the telly than I do now. I just hope to spend less of it being bored out of my skull.
I am all in favour of anything that helps your sanity or even just anything you will enjoy.
I still watch free to air via rabbit ears (the TV is mainly for the DVDs or playstation). When i go to my parents we sometimes watch cooking shows, which we are quite partial to. It’s so hard to avoid the crappy “reality” shows that free to air does by the bucket load, and which make your brain try and flee through your ear.
Welcome to the dark side…we love it here!
