I'm grounded

[abbyinparis]

I've been watching too much tv lately. Too much. I'm tired all the time from work so I sit down in front of the tv and just keep watching. And I have this growing list of things that need to get done. So..I'm grounding myself. Only TV I can watch is shows that I already regularly watch (Veronica Mars, Top Chef, maybe My Boys), though DVDs are

TV is evil. I'll sit down to watch ONE show and get up like 7 hours later wondering why it's dark outside. BAD.

So...straight male adults, eh? Any potentials?

that's exactly what happened to me! i sat down to eat dinner while my roommate was watching mean girls...and that movie, 2 episodes of My Boys, an episode of Law and Order SVU and an episode of The Shield later...my Saturday is over and I've missed a party! ick.

yeah...probably not. i suck at picking up guys...ha. especially since the friend through whom i met them is moving to paris in 2 weeks, rendering the likelihood of me ever seeing them again nil.

TV is a waste but soemtimes a relaxing form of entertainment (the completly non-social me coming out here...) I didn't know you watched Veronica Mars...I haven't seen season 3 at all so don't say anything!

I love that your being grounded just consists of not watching TV because you want to go out more. Last time i checked being grounded meant you had to stay home *wink* and a 12:30 bed time....lol

I just started watching Veronica Mars this season, though I am told this season isn't as good as the other two, which I still need to watch!

Anyway, the grounding from TV and "bedtime" are a means of getting me to do more productive (be it personally, socially, work, volunteer, health or otherwise) instead of just wasting hours in front of the tv!
