How did I ever miss this post? Great to hear from you!

I am not much of a TV watcher either. I should say, I didn't used to be much of a tv watcher. MR has completely ruined me. We have however discovered series on DVD's over the last few months. I am in love. I cannot stand to watch a show after it has already been going. I hate missing something. and I hate commercials. So the DVD's feed my OCD on how I like to watch things. I also like the ability to live my life and watch TV in my leisure.

We have been contemplating turning off cable - again. The series on DVD is one of the saving graces. MR will watch shows over and over so he is happy with his DVD's and I won't gripe so much about him buying them if we aren't paying for cable at the same time. Win WIN. We'll see how it goes.

My company is trying to stay out of the RBL's for spammers. It is hard work at times. I think I am going to leave technology and get a job as a typist. I wouldn't have to know anything or keep up with new stuff. Just type type type all day long. I can hit 120wpm if I do enough straight typing. I wonder if I could replace my income? I have just felt so very overwhelmed lately. I am tired of keeping up.....

My family has been cable/dish free for almost 2 years now. I don't miss it one bit. I really haven't. $360/year is not a bad increase either.

I recorded "Lie To Me" episode 3 and watched it later that night. Even fast forwarding the commercials drove me crazy. I'll be watching in 480ip on Hulu.com from now on.

I have felt that overwhelming feeling often lately too. It is good to have family and friends(including LJ friends) to keep me stable.
