Late nights.

Mar 30, 2005 04:41

So every morning I set my alarm on my phone with an annoying ringtone to wake me up at 10:58 AM. This should give me 2 minutes to get my ass up, turn off the alarm, and turn the TV to CBS. I can accomplish this much, but the hour that follows, that's where the wackiness ensues.

You see, here in Phoenix at 11 AM a little Soap Opera by the name of 'The Young & The Restless' airs. This show, it's characters, it's storylines, and everything in between are like electronic crack. I could go into detail about how I got into the show in the first place back in the day, but that is a story for another time (hopefully not). Anyway, I watch the first few minutes of the show, then start to get sleepy again. I usually last until the first commercial, then I just "rest my eyes" until the show comes back on. Yea right. Usually I wake up and the damn thing is half over. ;_;

So, the remedy to this problem is to set up a fucking tape in my VCR to record one hour of programming, to watch thereafter at my leisure. I figure this is the best way to go about it, because I'd rather watch it as it airs, but I _HATE_ having to read the recaps online since there are never any repeats. Plus, text on a monitor just isn't the same.

Ah well.
