Things (Stuff, If You Will)...

As I write this, I'm watching "Eli Stone". I don't know why, I can't connect with any of the characters, and I think the premise is insane, but so what, I'm doing it anyway.

The opener to this post proves two things, which will form the body of the day:
1) I watch a fair amount of television.
2) I'm becoming a creature of impulse (the more important of the two).

Let us deal with these numerically, as is our traditional method.

I watch a fair amount of television. Why? Perhaps it's my intense frustration with the real world - absence of employment, lack of challenge in my course work, only being able to see my absolutely incredible girlfriend once a week - that lead me to seek the escape that the fantastical realm of television can provide*.

Maybe it's also that there really are a lot of good shows on at the moment!
