I gave up TV about 3 1/2 years ago...couldn't stand all the horrors and dumb shit that just didn't seem relevant or entertaining anymore. I have watched a few episodes of the Today Show, Biggest Loser and American Idol, but nothing has ever made me want to stay home to see it. Nope, never even seen one episode of Sex in the City and couldn't pick Mc Dreamy out of a crowd of two. So last night after the Wild Ones were in bed-notice I didn't say sleeping-I decided to sit with the Big Guy instead of escaping...I mean reading my book. He was deep into a show I had never even heard of, "House." So instead of watching and letting him fill me in, I tried to tell him what I thought the show was about...maybe I don't watch TV cuz it annoys the Big Guy too much. Kind of like being in a movie theater...supposed to be quiet and enjoy the show...me quiet?...only when I'm reading. It turns out the show is about a guy named House-a doctor no less, not a bunch of people living together, but that sounds good too. The show has a strange sense of humor which made me laugh out loud. The plot has a reality twist, however the plot is still pretty predictable. Could I watch it once a week...snuggled in with the Big Guy? You bet. Back to back episodes? I don't think so.

A House in a Hospital.

Never seen it, and don't wanna have to love it. My goal this winter? Two hours of TV a week aside from having the news on in the morning and before bed.
I do love House too. I'm not a regular, but like to catch reruns on a rainy day. But alas, I am a TV watcher
