MY WEEK WITHOUT TV

So. I got chatting on the Google Mail chat with Shep from Cliff-A-Go-Go. The conversation turned to reading and I told Shep about my goal to read 10 books this year. He challenged me to read 52 (which is not going to happen, Shep.) I said that perhaps if I cut down my TV time I would get more reading done. Then Shep offered me a challenge:

No TV for a week (whittled down from no TV for a year)

Kate, if you're reading this, take deep steady breaths. I know this is a big shock to you since you are aware of how much time I spend in front of the box.

Here are the rules I must follow for the next week:

1. NO TV shows - not even on DVD - for a whole week

2. I am allowed to watch films at the Cinema or on DVD, but not alone

3. The films can be any films at all - including Porn, if I so desired

4. I am to try to spend time reading during this week

At the end of the week I will tell you how I got on. I may even take pictures of the stuff I did instead of watching telly. I hope to last the whole week.
