No Television: Day 3

July 27th, 2005 by

I was too busy to think about TV today. Didn’t watch a minute. I like being busy. The day went by in a flash. It was hot though and I wasn’t all that productive. I never am when it’s hot. I just space out a lot and stare at my keyboard. I slip into temporary insanity on days like this. I revert into this sub-human animal on a primal, single-minded, instinctual search for ways to cool down. Shade, water, even a cold floor to lay belly up on. Nothing else much matters. People call me on the phone and I barely remember the conversations later.

I have to remember that my goal isn’t just to quit watching TV as much, but to realign my life towards a better all-around balance of work, play, distraction and rest. I managed not to watch TV today but didn’t do so well with the other stuff. Oh well.
