rambling about cable television...

[podling]

It's odd, I miss having cable. I'm not one of the intelligensia who believe that tv is evil or low-brow or whatever. I'm just trying to see what my new living situation needs in terms of cash influx, then I will adjust and hopefully re up for cable. Honestly, I haven't been home enough to watch much anyway, and I *need* to unpack, so it's not like I should be watching it anyway. I'm strangely glad not to have it this week, because all I really need is to see countless memorial shows about the WTC (though I get recaps at work, which is... unsettling). But still. That show Carnivale starts this weekend, and I was kind of looking forward to it, and now I won't be getting to see it unless I convince someone to tape it for me. I mean, really, a drama about a freak show? It sounds tailor made for me. The only way it could sound better is if there were random Illuminati references in it or exorcisms.

I avoided TVs all day. Even dodged the radio news (caught a little near the end and was all the more miserable for it). I never finished the illuminatus books, hmm - some day.

Yeah, the news was almost unavoidable. Plus everyone just wanted to TALK about it, all day. And in a way I didn't mind, but in others...

Anyway, I never read any of those books, I really do want to sometime though. Illuminati!!!
