Calendar Girl Blog: TV
I've figured out what triggered my plummet into doom and gloom this week.
I watched 90 minutes of random television with a friend.
It's been months since I've been in the room with a boob tube. I haven't owned one for over three years. And even before that I loathed the one I lived with.
So 90 minutes was the equivalent of going on a drug induced bender for me. Fairly quickly I felt bad, despite having a lovely evening to that point. The message and the images, no matter which channel we chose, struck me as incredibly negative or lame.
Today, yet again, because I've been here before, I realize, that I am a freak. Most people, most places watch TV every day and see nothing wrong with that.
Calendar Girl simply can't relate.
And Calendar Girl will refrain from further viewing so as not to create unnecessary ugly thoughts that will end up blurted into her blog.

Very interesting, and I can't say as if I'm surprised. Just watching the news to see the weather is enough to make me want to curl up into the fetal position never to return...
Thanks for visiting my site!
