When Everything's Gone

1. Because they’re fucking awesome

2. All they do is sleep and play and eat and poop

3. They sleep wherever, whenever they feel like it

4. They can play with anything from a piece of dust to the cup full of water they knock off your nightstand

5. Even when they’re being assholes, they’re still cute as shit and you still love them

6. They aren’t afraid of bugs or mice or scary birds, in fact, usually they catch & kill them

We got rid of our tv this weekend. Mostly because it was an evil, soul-sucking scumwhore of a tv (Rent A Center is all that is wrong with America), but I can’t say it isn’t a relief. We were able to finally rearrange our room because we didn’t need to have it pointed at a certain place. I mean, really, what’s the harm? I can’t watch ABC Family marathons of Harry Potter? At 3 am, my boyfriend and I will read, or work, or, crazy idea, maybe we’ll talk (!?) instead of watching Hardcore Pawn on demand? Is that really so bad? I have a computer. I can download TV or put DVDs in it or do a million other things on it. So why have I been pouring all this money into what essentially functions as a large computer monitor.

I will say, that on our first two TV-less nights, we’ve been at a loss for what to do instead. We’ll get used to it. Rock on.
