• The average U.S. household watched 8 hours and 11 minutes of TV per day in 2004-05, setting a record. USA! USA! [Reuters]
Considering how much crap is on television, I can't believe this is seriously possible. So, as a challenge to myself, I'm going to see how much TV I watch this week and take my average. We'll see if I'm more or less box happy than America. Those interested in my personal rules should know this includes watching DVDs including my "Arrested Development" box set I got for my birthday from Henry, but does not include forced TV watching like the gym's ubiquitous TVs. If I can't get away from it, it definitely doesn't count. Plus, I'm not even listening to the claptrap. So, place your bets, you animals, and I'll post my results next Monday.
In other news, Priya just asked me if photos from my birthday will be around soon for viewing. I said they would be, but that Henry might like to touch them up. Priya said, "Make Amy less white?" I responded, "They don't make a honky filter for my level of whiteness." Just thought you might like a wee glimpse into today's activities.

hey...
happy birthday!
I bet ... less box happy, even with the DVD set action.
(p.s. You should turn on that "word verification" dealy in your Blogger settings)
And yeah, happy dingdang birthday! I hope someone who thought you were obnoxious broke something expensive that they had worked very hard to purchase.
Happy b-day! I miss seeing you at Monkey rehearsals. Boo-hoo. Good luck with your TV viewing habits. Mine stink. I watch way too much tv, but only after I tape it so I can skip thru the commercials.
