Confession Time

All right, I admit it, I've been sucked into satellite tv. I can't help it! I have this damn dish now and there's sooooo many great programs on it! I swear I didn't mean to. I just can't help myself. FBI Files, Law & Order reruns, movies that I don't own, oooooooodawwggy! How do people make themselves leave the television?! Don't get me wrong, it hasn't comletely taken over my life. I still get laundry and stuff done: spend time with my kids, fight for my computer time, so on and so on. I just ...well...it dawned on me around dawn that my window of sleep is getting smaller all the time. Why? Because I was too cheap to invest in the TiVo thing when I had the dish installed and since my VCR is schizophrenic about recording things, I simply stay awake watching stuff. I am such a bum, I know, but what is summer vacation for? Bumming! At any rate, I wonder with all these recognized 'addictions' out there, like Internet addiction and so on, if there's some support group for people addicted to satellite programming? Of course, then I'd probably have to like, leave my house and my TV, and like, go to some meeting where they refuse to have satellite service...not sure I'm into that. Besides, my remote proposed to me last night! I can't just start changing our relationship now, can I?
