“We’re doomed,” she told me.
“How can we watch all my shows,
without a TV?”
That is a good point. I don’t have any shows. (I don’t even have a TV.)
And actually, I’m not anti-series, I don’t have any time left for just sitting, (except at work).
How could I even watch a whole season of anything?
Theoretically, without a large moving screen in the room, we would have to talk, or read, listen to music and dance (or maybe sing along) and play with my dog; he’s ready! We can walk, garden, bike, stretch, sun bathe (in the daytime).
And if the kids are not around, there are even more things to do.
Anything that is not just sitting and spending all the evenings just watching shows.
Will you still accept me if I fall asleep while trying to kiss you all night long?
