I'm just a girl who cain't say no
One really exciting thing about the writers' strike is that I will be freed from my enslavement to the TV. Once they run out of new episodes, I won't have to worry about what to watch and what to tape and what to watch or not watch online. I started to think, at first, that this would be a really exciting time for me, so that instead of this¹:
| Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | Shouty Man Shouting Into a Megaphone Shoutily (ABC) | The Barney and Marshall Show, Also With Other Characters (CBS) | A Very Special "Social Experiment" Brought to You By Ashton Kutcher (CW) | Pushing Daisies is on at some point on Wednesdays but I always forget to turn the TV on. | The Cliff and Marc and Kenny Show, Also With Other Characters (ABC) | There is nothing worth watching on Fridays. I know that you have a differing opinion, but it's wrong. | ||
| Stupid Stupid Nerd Show That I Have Watched Once or Twice While Waiting For... (CBS) | Blurgh (NBC) | |||||||
| 9 | The Predictable, Repetitive Show With Nice Old Timey Music (CBS) | Mutant Adventures in Medieval Japan! (NBC) | Mister Cranky Doc (FOX) | I Am Tired of Jim (NBC) | ||||
| Hit Or Miss Doctor Show (NBC) | ||||||||
| 10 | Doctor Show That I Only Watch When I Haven't Bothered To Turn The TV Off (NBC) | |||||||
| SNL happens later ↓ | ||||||||
My evening schedule would look like this:
| Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | Learn enriching new things | Smell flowers | Serve nourishing gruel to Dickensian orphans² | Leap and hop and skip and jump | Cure cancer | Finally get around to cleaning my apartment | Learn to knit |
| 9 | Institute World Peace | Think important thoughts | Read a book | ||||
| 10 | Eat whirled peas | Write a novel | Cook an actual meal | ||||
Unfortunately, my sister has lent me the third season DVDs of Quantum Leap. I thought I had kicked my Quantum Leap addiction once I got to see John Cullum playing Don Quixote in season 2, but it would appear that's not the case. So my new schedule is going to look like this:
| Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap |
| 9 | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | ||||
| 10 | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | Quantum Leap | ||||
¹ The greyish ones are my must-see shows, the others are what I'd watch if the TV were already on.
² Sometimes I feel like my blog doesn't have enough Dickensian orphans in it.
