    TV is rotting my brain, except for Seinfeld and Futurama.



    this has been a great month 2 years ago

    infact, time has really flown.

    i really hope to intergrate this goal completely into my life, but moreso, to do other things instead of watch tv. when i originally put this goal i knew i would need something to track my tv watching against, and reading seemed like a really good idea. but now, i want to maybe trying scrapbooking more often, and hiking, maybe get a bike.

    hurray for me, my first big goal!

    i love that this goal is just becoming part of my life, it’s not even something i’ve thought about lately, until later at night when i’m trying to count and make sure. this is awesome!



    another good day. 2 years ago

    i watched about an hour and 15 minutes of test the nation, another cbc thing. i have a very average IQ. anyway, i read about 2 hours. wheeee…closer today but still good.



    eep! 2 years ago

    well, i forgot to update for the past few days, but i think between them all i’ve watxhed barely an hour of tv, and read about 5 or 6 hours.

    each day has been a success, and as a group. wheeee! :D



    one week!! 2 years ago

    and going strong! wheeeee….

    tonight i took a bath, possibly the best reading opportunity, unless, you happen to enjoy making soap animals, then maybe this idea is not for you.

    i’m not quite wrinkled yet, but i was in there about an hour. i’m re-reading pretty little dirty. which is an AMAZING book i read this past christmas.

    anyway, i’ve only watched about 10 minutes of stand up in kandahar, which was hysterical. i love canadian comedy, and canadian comedy in afganistan was great. check it out if you didn’t catch it. you can check out highlights on the cbc website! http://www.cbc.ca/standupinkandahar/ yay…



    day six. 2 years ago

    well, i’ve gotten alot farther in the chicken soup book, less crying, haha. and i’ve only watched about half of jeopardy.

    and i’ve definently read at least an hour and a half. yay!



    day five! 2 years ago

    well, i know it’s a bit early for me to be claiming this day a success, BUT i’ve ben reading for about four hours [minus kitten interuptions. i finished 1984 yesterday, and am re-reading chicken soup for the traveler’s soul. everytime i read these books, i bawl my eyes out. haha oh well. they’re good stories.

    i’ll be watching corner gas [SEASON FINALE!!!!111one] and the class tonight. and possibly a bit more, so i wanted to get some quality reading in.

    pssst…i should be cleaning…



    day four! 2 years ago

    i read for a couple of hours, and my bed was so comfy i took a nap too haha…oh well, and i haven’t watched any tv yet. wheee…



    wheeee...day three! 2 years ago

    another good day. i think it helps that i work so much. since i’ve been trying to tone down my sleeping i was up at 11, and read for a few hours, then i ended up watching about an episode and a half of that 70’s show. w00t!
