Now that the election is over, when I do watch TV rarely, it will be a bombardment of those prescription drug commercials instead of back and forth political attack ads.

One of those things that I always found interesting was how you really never hear the Philly accent on TV or even in movies for that matter. If it is ever attempted, it is almost always totally butchered.

Last night I was unable to sleep. I just laid in bed wide awake. Eventually I went downstairs and turned on the TV and just watched that hoping to fall asleep.

I don’t remember what we were talking about today but it clicked that it has been 3 months since I’ve chosen to watch anything on TV myself. My girlfriend hasn’t really turned on the television either. I think it was brought up because I wondered if and when their will be any new Saturday Night Live episodes. There was a show a few weeks ago I thought about wanting to see if it was available on YouTube TV but then when I went to search I drew a blank so I guess it wasn’t all that important to me.

I normally just completely tune out commercials. If I do not tune them out, I don’t remember them. It’s funny that the ones that I am aware of are the drug commercials, spending more time listing side effects than they do on the five seconds of happy music.

Quite a while ago we cut cable back to the most basic plan they had since the prices kept increasing with nothing of value added while they were giving discounts to new customers and everyone that asked except us. We also didn’t like the idea of contracts. Eventually they encrypted then wanted to charge for the basic over the air channels so we returned those converters and tried an antenna. We weren’t watching that much TV at that time and what we wanted was mostly streamed.
