TV Weirdness

I love watching TV and so does my husband. I don't pretend that I do not. I would love to say that we were a "triathlon family" or an "art family" or a "sports family" meaning we put a ton of our time and resources into doing and encouraging those things but we are not. At the end of a long day of managing kids and working, Dentist husband and I like nothing more than collapsing on the sofa together and "vegging" in front of the TV. Because of this, we purposely decided to not get cable/dish because we waste enough time with rabbit ears and those limited stations.

Our latest TV discovery? THIS. It is one of the WEIRDEST shows on TV but I can't keep my eyes off of it when it comes on. Keep in mind, my husband does not speak Spanish and this show doesn't have subtitles. I spend a limited amount of time translating for him but doesn't really matter because it has enough weird eye candy to keep you interested. And, we are lame/pathetic/cool enough to actually now know most of the songs sung by Costel (who by the way is the son of Lagrimita--yes, I know this.)

I need to spend more time cleaning. I think we have reached a new low around this place.

GOOD for you! I think admitting that you "like to watch tv" is like admitting that you take naps. Have you ever noticed that if people were awakened from a nap and the interrupter asks them if they were asleep, they RARELY admit it? WHAT'S WRONG WITH SLEEPING? What's wrong with watching TV (ok, no comment on watching shows in a lingo you no comprendes(?)? After entertaining everyone all day long, it's the best to BE entertained!!!

I think we all have ways of regenerating and there is nothing wrong with the tv version. I will be glad when they get new shows back on!

OK..I love the fact that you openly admit it. I find it quite refreshing. You make me smile!

I'm an avid TV watcher as well. Sometimes you just need to veg out and relax.
