The Great TV Turn-Off

[swingchickie]

::deep breath::

starting tomorrow, i am turning off my TV for a week.

peter and i talked about this during his visit. a few years ago, when i was subject for that weight/lifestyle makeover book, one of the things they had me do was turn off my TV for a week, then another week. i was spending so much time plugged in, that i wasn't being physically active and the days were dragging by. i'm realizing that the same thing is happening again, ever since stuff started going downhill with the ex. and now i'm in an electronic rut.

sooo... for the next week, i'm not going to have the TV on at all. and i'm barely going to be on the computer. my evenings will be spent doing other things -- reading, exploring my town, whatever... i'm just going to take the time to do new things, or things i haven't done in forever. (that'll be my little bit of computer time, posting the results.) we'll see how the experiment goes.

as far as today goes, it's been an odd day. my stomach's a mess, the apartment is hot as blazes (i didn't shower today because i can't stop sweating, there's no point), and i'm just exhausted. i started reading, and fell asleep for another 2 hours. jeez. somehow i have to pull myself together so i can go dancing. i miss it.

tried logging onto ISPQ again. can't get into it, it just seems so predatory. there's a "best smile" contest coming up, though... soooo tempting...

and, oh... just so you know... i have Cake concert tickets, and you don't. neener neener.

And I have Rush tickets, and you don't :P~~~

[...and I was just looking up the bio for Cake; unless I can hear one of their tunes to identify them, I honestly have no idea who they are!]

they had a song called "the distance" back around '94 that was really big... you'd totally know it if you heard it...
