One of the nitpicky things about living with any other person, particularly your significant other/spouse, is agreeing on what TV shows to watch.  It’s sad, in a way.  But let’s face it:  we’re a nation that likes our tube.  Heck, thank goodness that’s the case or I wouldn’t have a career!  

As previously noted in my post “Remote Decisions”, sometimes the “what to watch” issue has been in a hot-button issue in our household.  Silly as it sounds, the DVR has been a thing of beauty.  Instead of separating ourselves to watch our own thing, we can both watch the Cardinals ball game (which if you don’t follow baseball–is becoming a pretty exciting thing!  We’re one-and-a-half games back in the wild card race!)  Then we can DVR anything else that’s on that either of us want to watch.  I can watch my shows on Friday when I’m off work and he’s teaching.  And he can watch his stuff on Sunday while he’s off and I’m working.  Again, it’s pitiful in a way– I realize that.  But when the crisp fall weather sets in, sometimes you just want to snuggle down and catch up on your favorite shows.
