Get rid of my TV

I finally put it downstairs, unplugged into storage. Yeah. I have all sorts of time now. It is amazing that it wasn’t as big of a deal as everyone thinks. And now, with all of the terrible things on the news, I am missing all of the fear that other people are thinking about.

The television raised me as a kid. Once I quit watching it, I was no longer an angry person. No kidding. It was like I wouldn’t make time for anyone. This lasted pretty much until after College. Then the sneaky bastard (TV) made his way back into my life via “The Simpsons.” Can you blame me? But now, I have decided that it is just another distraction/addiction that keeps me from everything else I hold dear. There is so much life in here/out there that I want to experience. TV is like a desensitizing, peice of cheap chocolate. You can never eat enough, and eventually it leaves you fat, tired and always craving more, wishing you never put it into your mouth.
