TV is bad!
Isn't it weird when you change something small and different, yet it makes unforeseen changes that you didn't expect. I recently built a new computer to play video games on, also because my old one was going down the crapper. As soon as it was ready to sit on my desk it was there to serve my whims. I instantly put my other computer on the floor and began to install software on my new project. Everything was awesome until I went to go to bed. Where was it? I lie down in bed, picked up the TV remote and realized I didn't have a TV anymore. My old computer had served as my TV since I had started college, and I didn't realize how strange it would feel without it. It had filled a void in my life and the void was suddenly empty. But unlike the vacuum of space, there was nothing there to fill it. All these years TV was my way of not having to think. I didn't have to worry about stuff. I didn't need to think about what I was watching if I didn't want to. I was never at a loss of what to do. I'm not saying it's a terrible bad thing that the TV is gone. I'm just going through TV withdrawal. I didn't think it would affect me this way, but it has. Eventually I will get over it and begin to fill my time with non-television related life content. Habits die hard, but it's good to break them once in a while to give your life perspective.
