The Big Black Box

Last night I got home around 6:30 and snuggled up with blankets on the couch and read for almost 2 hours before making dinner, chatting with friends and knitting. Not only did I get to finish my book (Memoirs of a Geisha - excellent!), but I realized something at the end of the evening.

I never turned on the big black box.

Normally the TV is always on in my apartment as background noise. I live alone, and during my chores usually I'm half watching tv, or playing something I have DVR'd. I realized at 1am when I finished reading that I had never turned the TV on the entire night that I was home. And you know? I actually felt more peaceful and calm than I had in a long time.
