Couch Potato
I have a confession to make to the world at large. Don’t be fooled into thinking this is an altruistic act of humility, rather I have to “fess up,” have to save face because jimi already leaked my secret to the world.
Jed just bought the 3rd season of 24 on DVD. Previously I had ridiculed my roomates for giving their entire lives to 24 (whenever a new season came out on DVD, cause none of us were ever available when it actually showed on television). Granted, it is a little over the top to spend 18 hours of one’s life (in the space of two days) watching a television action/drama, but if you’ve seen 24 you know how this is possible…
On Monday night I was sucked in. I sat dumbfounded in front of the tele for 5 hours watching CTU’s every move with rapt attention.
Consequently, Tuesday was one of the most productive days I’ve had in a long time as my guilt motivation kicked in to double-time…(“must redeem life…wasted time…destroyed neurons… but dang, that was a good show!”)
Welcome to the cult.
