Entertainment or train wreck

The crazy thing about me is I can't sit still and don't like to watch T.V. While this allows me to spend my time in other pursuits (like reading, cooking, cleaning, study, research) and also allows for more time to think and develop my mind. Not having cable T.V. has not been a big deal for me in many ways as I have never knew what I have been missing.

I have lived most of my life without cable T.V. (From time to time while house sitting or when I was with my first room mate I have enjoyed cable. ). I have always had standard T.V. and been perfectly happy. That is until I moved out on my own in a place that had cable.

With all the different shows to watch & movies I do feel more comfortable having the T.V. on or watching T.V. I watch many more movies & shows I can't see on regular T.V. like the weather channel, some of the talk news, cooking & fitness, and sports channels. I use to think I wouldn't get into all sorts of shows but I can and some times find myself watching something I am not interested in.

I always thought I would never watch T.V. shows that other people have talked about, shows like Bride zillas, celebrity workouts or rehab related shows. I'm sad to admit I do watch these shows from time to time. Currently I like to watch Monster Quest, Millionaire Matchmaker & Celebrity Rehab. Shows that do nothing for me and in most cases do nothing but waste my time but I can't help but watch.
