tierrapajaro is needing to catch up. but procrastinating
Officially TV-free for 18 years and don’t regret it for the following reasons.
1. Television sets are ugly – they mess up the asthetics of a home…especially when they become the centerpeice of a living room.
2. I don’t have time to watch television. If I came home and popped on the telly, when would I have time to work out? read books? take long walks? Play games? Talk to my husband? Call friends? play music?
We have a monitor in the closet that we pull out on the special occasion that we rent a film. That becomes an occasion. We make a pot of tea and some popcorn and have a night of it. It’s special then.
