Technology Anonymous

Ainsley has been sick since Thursday and I have barely been able to get out of the house. I feel strongly about not spreading these germs. So I was ready to hole myself up with my TV, my computer, and my phone.

Enter Ryan with the tiller. On Saturday Ryan and Omar were tilling the garden getting it ready to grow all our delicious vegetables for the summer. I had just finished the previous post and published when...Bam...no Internet. I checked the TV...no TV. I checked my phone (we use vonage)...no phone. I ran outside to see Ryan holding a large portion of our cable wire in his hand. I quickly called the cable company. They couldn't come out until Monday.

So here I was holed up in the house and I was stranded without all the things I love the most. Do you think that I picked up a book? Nope. I played on my phone the entire time. My current Word Warp score is 63,800. I know I am addicted to technology and this proved it.

Is there a support group for that?

Oh How I Love TV

I have to admit, I am a complete TV junkie. I love all kinds of TV from comedies, to dramas, to reality shows, to daytime talk shows. I have tried very hard during my maternity leave to not spend every moment in front of the TV. It has indeed been a challenge. I have found reruns of some of my old favorites and have even found old sitcoms that I never watched before.

Being that I am the TV junkie, fall is one of my favorite times of year. I love the new TV season. After a summer of Big Brother (a guilty pleasure), I am always ready for new scripted television. Unfortunately, I don't see many new shows that I have to catch.

My TIVO and VCR (yes I have to use both because of scheduling conflicts) will be busy this season. I refuse to watch anything live so I can watch more tv in less time. So here is what I am watching this year.

Monday - Terminator - Sarah Connor Chronicles, How I Met Your Mother, Heroes, America's Toughest Jobs (a new reality show that has me hooked. Don't judge me)

Tuesday - Biggest Loser - Families

Wednesday - Private Practice

Thursday - Survivor: Gabon, Grey's Anatomy, The Office

Saturday - Knight Rider (I'm going to give it a try for Ryan)

What am I missing? What are your favorites?
