Well, just shy of four weeks, actually, and not completely without television because I did have a weekend away in which I immersed myself in Law and Order. But it is my most TV-free span since my parents acquired our first set back in 1954. Even the transatlantic cruise in 2018 had television on board.
So what does a TV-generation guy do when deprived of his daily dose of boob toob? Well…
- Read. I have finished several books.
- Organize his DVDs and CDs. This can take a long time since I feel obliged to view/listen to any that I am considering discarding.
- Watch all James Bond movies (thanks, Ray!).
- Learn how to connect the television to my T-Mobile router so that I can watch shows on Netflix.
- Watch the 7 seasons of Mission Impossible (the TV series, not those awful Tom Cruise movies).
I haven’t finished the Mission Impossible series yet (46 DVDs) but I am working on it.
